Most accommodating, professional, kind and efficient. Incredibly reassuring. Thank you for your care.
Was a pleasure to meet with Dr Porter who really listened tome and took a very detailed history of my symptoms etc. I did come to him for a second opinion and had a very positive result. Maybe not the diagnosis I wanted but now on the right treatment. I would highly recommend Dr Andrew Porter if you are looking for an experienced specialist rheumatologist who listens and explains everything in layman’s terms.
I had an excellent experience with Dr. Porter. He is exceptionally thorough, caring and attentive, and genuinely takes the time to listen to his patients. He explained everything clearly and in detail, making sure I fully understood the information and had the opportunity to ask any questions. I never felt rushed during the consultation, and I really appreciated the time and care he took to explain everything so thoroughly. Dr. Porter was kind, professional and reassuring throughout, and I came away from the consultation with a very positive impression. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, compassionate and patient-focused doctor.
I was extremely pleased with my consultation with Dr Porter today and every time i have an appointment with him. He is always kind, patient and very reassuring, and always makes me feel completely at ease. He always explains everything clearly and takes the time to make sure I fully understood every step of my treatment. I really appreciated that he listens to my concerns and makes sure I feel comfortable with any treatment plan. He always takes the time to explain the possible next steps, including what would happen if my medication needed to be changed. I alway come away feeling well informed, reassured and confident that I am in very good hands and the best for my health is always at the forefront. I’m very grateful for his care and time.
Dr Porter is always extremely helpful. He actually listens to what you have to say, asking questions as appropriate, clarifying what is meant. Generally getting to the bottom of things. He takes time and doesn’t rush, extremely professional and respectful. And I can’t fault that he’s just a generally approachable nice friendly guy.
I am extremely pleased with Dr. Andrew Porter and the care and approach he has taken with my treatment (I have UCTD) and since starting hydroxychloroquine, I have noticed a wonderful improvement in how I feel. The pain and swelling I was experiencing in my legs and joints have improved significantly. Before, I struggled to stand and walk even for short periods, but after just a couple of months of taking the medication, I can now do so for much longer periods. It has made a real difference to my everyday life. I have also noticed a positive change in my overall wellbeing and mental health. I am very grateful for the treatment and for having a rheumatologist who listens, understands and has taken such a thoughtful approach to my care. The hydroxychloroquine has worked wonderfully for me, and I feel so much better than I did before.
Dr Porter is an amazing doctor. He is thorough in his investigations and clearly extremely well informed not only in rheumatology but also in general medicine. He also really listens to the patient, makes you feel at ease and generally cares, which are rare qualities in doctors nowadays. I would highly recommend him.
I went to the wrong clinic for my appointment and everyone was extremely helpful. My appointment didn’t need to be rescheduled despite the 25 mins delay which was extremely helpful. Dr Porter was very nice and explained everything clearly.
Fantastic rheumatologist and a great colleague.
