The read

Founded by Dr Jim Walter, credited with pioneering laser dermatology in Australia, and now led by Dr Terence Poon alongside Dr Marianne Nolan, co-developer of the Walter Nolan Multi-Laser Procedures, this is billed as the first full-time laser dermatology clinic in Sydney. The stated 18 laser and energy treatments are mostly unnamed on the clinic's own pages, and a 3.5 Google rating is the softest in this Sydney cohort.
