Explanation

I had been seen by Dr Frankel at the London Medical Hospital in Marybourne, London. I have to say, of all the many consultants I have seen over the past 30yrs, none of them have come close to the care and attention I received from Dr Frankel. He was meticulous in examining my past medical history, my current state of health and recommendations to manage my health going forward. Clearly he is a a true expert in the area of diabetics and kidney disease. I am so grateful and fortunate to have been referred to him!!
