I contacted Dr Chris on behalf of my Mother who'd recently had a worrying diagnosis, and we were struggling a bit with wait times on the NHS. He was incredibly prompt at responding to us and addressing our concerns, and once we'd agreed to go down the route of a private CT scan we had the scan done within 2 days. Being able to get answers so quickly, without the waiting around for weeks and having things play on your mind, is absolutely priceless. This is the second time we've used CAS Medical and Dr Chris, and it was the same excellent service again. Transparent, prompt, straightforward, and just a load off our shoulders.
