Cow's Milk Protein Allergy

As first-time parents, we experienced an incredibly worrying and stressful time when our two-month-old daughter was dropping through the growth percentiles. 

Having initially gone through our NHS GP, we were referred to a specialist, but the waiting time for an appointment was considerably long. With our daughter's health and wellbeing our priority, we decided to seek help from Dr Ramnik Mathur, and it is genuinely one of the best decisions we could have made.

From the moment we met him, we felt reassured that our daughter was in exceptionally good hands. What particularly impressed us was how quickly he understood what was happening. Within minutes of seeing and carefully assessing our daughter, he diagnosed her with cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA). He immediately identified the symptoms that indicated such an allergy and explained her presentation clearly, the future consequences this might have, and provided a clear and concise short term and long term feeding plan. He provided us so much reassurance and gave a space to ask questions and clarify any concerns we had. 

What really sets Dr Mathur apart, however, is not just his exceptional medical knowledge and experience, but the genuine care and compassion he shows towards the children he treats. We witnessed this first-hand in the way he interacted with our daughter throughout the consultation. It was clear that her wellbeing genuinely mattered to him. He was attentive, gentle and patient, taking the time to properly assess her and ensure that we understood everything. As parents, seeing someone show that level of care towards your child means an enormous amount.

The improvement we have seen in our daughter following the first appointment has been remarkable. Our daughter is now gaining weight at a healthy rate, has already moved back up a growth percentile and is noticeably happier, sleeping for longer stretches and appears more settled overall.

For us as new parents, this experience has been truly life-changing. There is nothing more difficult than watching your newborn struggle while feeling helpless and uncertain about what is wrong. Dr Mathur not only identified the underlying problem incredibly quickly but also was open and approachable, giving us the reassurance, guidance and confidence that our little girl was finally receiving the right care.

His medical expertise, attention to detail, professionalism and genuine dedication to his patients are outstanding. The follow-up appointment was equally as positive, which indicates that he is consistent in how he interacts with parents and their little ones.

We honestly cannot thank Dr Mathur enough for the difference he has made to our daughter's health and to our experience as first-time parents. We will always be incredibly grateful for his help and support.

We would recommend Dr Ramnik Mathur without the slightest hesitation to any parent looking for a knowledgeable, compassionate and truly exceptional paediatrician. We feel extremely fortunate to have found him. Thank you, Dr Mathur, for everything you have done for our little girl and our family.
