I was initially worried that a 15 minute appointment would not cover everything that needed to be done, but I felt that I was given adequate time and not rushed at all.

Everyone was friendly and helpful and went out of their way to make the visit easier. My only comment would be that it would have been helpful for Professor Lloyd to have had access to the records of my previous visit in 2015.
