Testimonials

Testimonials

I would highly recommend this clinic. We just attended an appointment with Frank Kelleher and we saw an improvement in the room in our baby. Frank was incredibly kind and helpful. He was patient and answered all our questions. Our baby is 4 months old, my only regret is I wish we went sooner.
The facilities are incredibly welcoming and relaxing. There is a lovely changing/feeding room. You can privately feed your baby or read them a story. The lady on reception was very lovely and approachable. Could not have been a more positive experience. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.

Aneta

Frank is brilliant at what he does, his depth of knowledge is second to none. The tips and tricks related to your child are so helpful. The feeding and changing room is also ideal for using before and after the treatment. Everyone we met was so welcoming, friendly and helpful.

Maria

I highly recommend Frank. He sorted my son’s persistent cough in two sessions. The clinic has an excellent child focused setup, which makes it a relaxing environment for child and parent, no stress!!Frank was calm and friendly and the lady in reception was lovely too. Would definitely go back if we have any other problems.

Alison

My daughter had her third and final treatment this morning and for the first time in her 3 months of life she went to bed peaceful and content. Thank you so much Frank for your help and advice and Rose for being so welcoming.

Vivienne

I cannot recommend Frank enough. He took one look at my baby girl and knew she had a lactose problem. Having been let down by doctors who thought I was crazy it was of great comfort that Frank was able to help my baby girl. After only two visits she is a much happier, healthier baby. She eats better sleeps better and is much more content in herself. I will always be thankful for what he has done.

Claire

I wish there was more then 5☆ Frank was absolutely a god sent with our premature baby with serious colic that didn’t sleep AT ALL by night is now sleeping until maybe 4 or 5 sometimes 6 now, I couldn’t recommend Frank & the lovely Rose enough they care for the baby’s just like there own.

Aimee

I cannot recommend Frank enough.  I felt he was the only support there for my baby and I. He was accurate with every diagnoses , constantly offering support and advice. I dread to think what my baby would have gone through without him. Even if your baby is well I would still recommend a session.
