Listened to my problem patiently and with concern, very professional, explained his diagnosis and treatment to me, and explained the other possible test that might be needed if the advised treatment was not effective.

He listened attentively. He read my notes thoroughly. He then proceeded to dig deeper into my problems and followed up with a physical examination. After all that he gave me a well considered diagnosis and recommendations for a way forward. Importantly, at no time did I feel time pressure. I was well satisfied with my consultation.
