Patients value his ability to arrange quick diagnostic procedures such as ultrasound scans and MRIs. Many patients seek his expertise for conditions including stroke and transient ischaemic attack within stroke medicine.
Everything was running quite smoothly and I had every confidence in what Dr. Told me. I heard the nurse make my two follow-up scans but the unit only had one booked so have to go for the other one the next day,which is a bit of a nuisance, but these things happen. Not being able to drive I have to rely on others so it’s not that easy..
The patient was treated in a polite and pleasant manner by the doctor and nurse, who also explained the details of his condition clearly, much appreciated and thanks for the support and care
I am very happy with my recent consultation and examination
After the shambles that was A&E where I wasn't listened to and sent home with a diagnosis of a migraine..knowing to well it wasn't. To be able to sit down in front of someone who gave me the confidence to believe me when I said i know my migraines and this wasn't one of them. To have every option and possibility explained to me was weirdly assured me .. even if it wasn't what you'd want to hear. Money well spent
Dr Basaam Aweid listened attentively,made extensive notes and provided me with sufficient information.
mr Aweid and the Assistant were very considerate, caring and soft spoken..
The only criticism is concerning the BP monitor. Initially it wouldn’t work and then gave me a Systolic figure I have never seen before. Not Dr Aweid’s fault!
Was seen early..No waiting which was a blessing as usually I have to wait
