Had my 3rd Hifu with the utterly amazing Cherie. We always have such a laugh and I think she's just brilliant! At the same time, she is extremely knowledgeable and professional and answers all my questions thoroughly - I know I'm in safe hands with her. Cherie is a one-off and should be treasured.
Had a wonderful, RF treatment with the lovely Taylor who's warm, friendly and very professional. As we chatted together, we righted the wrongs of the world so I left feeling better in many ways. Thanks Taylor... until next time. Thoroughly recommend xx
Location not as good as Queen Street as its in basement and was dark when I left, not the best lighting at building. Feel for staff members leaving building late at night. Something managers at Vivo should look at x
Thank you
