Dr Al-Lami was friendly, gave me time to explain my symptoms and examined me thoroughly to make a diagnosis. He explained my treatment plan, but maybe by that time I was a little bit overwhelmed, so a written explanation would have helped (or I should have taken notes). But all in all a very good experience. I was also very pleased that he sent a referral for a CT scan and a hearing test, which is reassuring.
