As before I was made to feel relaxed from the very start. Dr Chris spent some time listening and explaining everything along the way. I felt comfortable to ask questions and feel I have got some answers to part of the problem I have been trying to get for the last 6 months. Also feel very confident that he can help me get to the bottom to the rest of whats going on after some more investigating/reviewing results. Dr Chris by far has been the best Doctor I have seen, even to the point of putting a sheet together the night before my appointment to help me understand a few this of what going on, I was very impressed . It made me feel that I was not just being a bother but that he is actually interested in helping. Excellent service all round.

Dr Chris was incredibly knowledgeable, straightforward, and professional. The appointment was for Mum who has profound hearing loss, which can sometimes be a bit of a hurdle any time we visit her GP but with Dr Chris it was no problem at all. He was incredibly patient, very clear in his explanations, and made sure my Mum understood everything that was going on. She left the appointment singing his praises, which has never happened before after a Doctors appointment.

On my 2nd visit I had blood test results back on the same day. Dr Sockalingam sat with both myself and my Wife and went through every result from bloods taken on my 1st visit and has sent a referral letter to my NHS GP practice. He showed professionalism throughout the process and his attention to detail was exceptional.
