Professor Akash Deep was fantastic to deal with. Super responsive, thorough and explained everything to us all very throughly and in a way my daughter could understand.

I was very anxious, and probably being a bit over cautious but I knew my baby was not well and I was concerned about it getting worse. I wasn't made to feel like I was over reacting or wasting his time, he took my concerns seriously.

Professor Deep went over and above in his care for our daughter. He proactively reached out to check on her and was very easy to reach when we had questions or issues. His bedside manner was excellent. He kept us calm and kept our spirits up.

We are so grateful that we found Dr Deep! He is an extremely caring and dedicated Doctor. Nothing is ever too much trouble and he always makes time for his patients. Dr Deep is always available and responsive. He is very professional yet still able to be personable and natural with children. We always felt in safe hands and would recommend anyone to see him for paediatric care. Thank you Dr Deep

Professor Deep is professional treating my son with great medical knowledge. He is also warm and extremely caring to the little one. There was one case that we were holiday and there was sudden occurrence of hematoma on head, professor Deep tried to help us immediately while we were in panic.

I took my children to see Dr. Deep and I cannot describe in enough words how caring, attentive, and professional he was a doctor. It is very rare to come across a doctor nowadays who makes all the time needed and has genuine care and concern for even trivial matters. Having done some research on Dr. Deep prior to my appointment I learned that he is a world expert in sepsis which is very reassuring. My confidence in Dr. Deep was only reaffirmed when my two local pharmacists insisted that he is the best pediatrician at the Cromwell. I will only go to him for my children's needs and am very grateful to have made his acquaintance.

Following my son's appointment, I would certainly recommend Dr Akash Deep and, if needed, would visit him again. He is a fantastic physician and paediatrician. He is very knowledgeable and approachable and clearly cares about each and every patient. He was willing take the time to explain and answer any questions and was very reassuring. He also kindly spent time following up so you know you are in good hands.

Our family of 4 children has had the privilege of having Dr Deep as there doctor since early 2016. He has been the most caring, helpful, knowledgeable, amazing doctor. I cannot rate him high enough. When it comes to your children's health only the best will do... so I highly recommend Dr Deep as he is the best!
