Mental health treatment
“I have used the DocTap practice a few times, and each time the GP has been very helpful, detailed and caring with the consultations. The flexibility and multi locations has made it very easy for me to see a doctor quickly, and also follow up appointments with the same doctor. I would highly recommend DocTap as the go to private practice.”
