I had really excellent service from all staff in the Clinic . My appointment was by luck made for the same day I called the Admin staff who were keen to help . The nurses were quick and efficient and Dr Chahal bent over backwards to rush through blood tests and results from monitors so that I had a speedy result with a prompt follow up call with easy to understand explanations. I couldn’t recommend this clinic more highly.

I once again had the need for the clinic's services due to a re-occurrence of my condition. A consultation was organised within 48 hours and my procedure was scheduled for the following week. Dr Levy and his supporting clinical / admin teams are excellent and I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them.
