Very pleased to have been seen by Dr Holt. His explanation of my condition was clear and he had a detailed plan for a full diagnosis going forward. He took plenty of time to discuss everything and I left his office feeling confident that I was in good hands and would receive the treatment I needed. I have since received a detailed letter for my GP and the necessary tests have been arranged extremely quickly.

Mr Holt put me at ease as soon as the consultation commenced. He listened to all of my concerns, and answered all of my questions, and he didn’t rush me. I felt far less anxious when I left the appointment. He was very approachable, and knowledgeable. I have hope for the future.

Explanation

After a liver problem as a side effect of medication (Azathioprine) I was very lethargic and ill. After emergency NHS treatment which halted my decline ( and stopped Azathioprine ) I chose to be under the care of Dr Holt. In the years since my liver function is close to normal but the major benefit I now receive is the careful monitoring and tests conducted by Dr Holt on a regular basis. I thoroughly recommend this consultant who is very professional and caring and whose explanations are clear and helpful. Ron F
