Explanation

I have chosen to again consult with Dr Steadman who I first met in 2016 as he listens attentively and is willing to give a considered professional opinion without resorting to unecessary tests and scans which I appreciate. He explained clearly the risk/benefit of changing my antihypertensive treatment and commencing a statin. He has the same excellent patient centred approach whether you consult wth him via the NHS or privately.
