I recently visited Dr David with my son, and I was genuinely worried beforehand. We had noticed two small lumps, and as a parent it’s hard not to feel anxious in that situation. From the moment we arrived, Dr David put both me and my son at ease. During the examination, Dr David was calm, professional, and thorough. He explained everything clearly, took time to address my concerns, and answered all of my questions patiently. The advice given was excellent—practical, reassuring, and easy to understand. Most importantly, my son felt comfortable throughout the appointment, and the whole experience was handled with great care. Dr David also prepared the report for our GP promptly, which helped us feel supported and informed moving forward. Overall, we were very impressed by the professionalism, kindness, and efficiency shown during our visit. I would highly recommend Dr David to anyone seeking a professional, compassionate and top expert clinician.

I have a lump on my back which has caused worry as it’s unusual. Dr Annan was very clear and very patient centred throughout the appointment in his introduction, allowing me to tell him what was happening after reading my appointment letter. He explained things clearly, giving clear next steps after my appointment. As the lump appears atypical, he made a further referral to ensure that it is fine, including my preference again for an open mri scan. This was the best medical appointment I’ve had in my life.

Thank you to Doctify for this recognition; it truly means a great deal. There is a common misconception that visiting a radiologist for a scan or procedure can feel impersonal, scary or uncomfortable. From the very beginning of my career as a consultant, both within the NHS and in private practice, I made a commitment to challenge that perception. Every patient deserves to be treated with dignity, respect, and empathy. More importantly, they should feel heard, supported, and advocated for. The ultrasound or procedural room can be an anxious place. For me, the patient experience in that moment is paramount. Whether someone needs reassurance, clarity, a second opinion, or simply time to talk through next steps, my focus is always the same: the person(s) in front of me. They’ve earned that time. It’s their time. My goal is simple: to ensure every patient leaves feeling they have had a truly positive, or as Doctify would say, a “great patient experience”. Thank you again to Doctify for this recognition. As a radiologist, it’s incredibly meaningful.
