I felt very satisfied with the consultation and diagnostic procedures Dr Campbell carried out for my teenage son. He explained procedures and findings with clarity and I felt reassured that my son would be well looked after in his care.
Dr Campbell has been treating our daughter for an unexplained issue with swallowing. He has listened to our concerns as parents and spoken directly to our daughter at her level. We are now working with Dr Campbell as he guides us through further tests.
There were some issues with the appointment being rescheduled several times (Great North Children’s Hospital) but Dr Campbell was very accommodating and still ensured we had an appointment.
The care my son has received from Dr Campbell so far has been terrific. Dr Campbell is very knowledgeable, sensitive and informative. We immediately felt at ease during a very difficult time. As a family we feel confident that we are receiving the best medical care for our son. Dr Campbell has shown brilliant care and compassion throughout, he is willing to go above and beyond for my sons complex care needs to give us as a family the most desired outcome.

Dr David Campbell is a fantastic doctor he’s seen me and straight on the ball to get me better looking forward to the rest of my appointments with him

Thank you for your kind words. I hope you will be feeling better soon.
Dr Campbell is a very friendly and approachable doctor, he goes out of his way to make you feel comfortable during the consultation and is genuinely interested in how you and your child are. We have been very pleased with our child's care whilst seeing him, the only negative is sometimes the explanations of things can be very rushed and we don't have time to take things in properly, then are left with lots of questions after we have left. We understand that he is of course very busy and often he simply does not have the time to spend with us that he would perhaps like.

Thank you for these words and I am sorry to have made you feel rushed. It is helpful to have these issues pointed out.
Dr Campbell was fantastic from start to finish with our daughter. After such a bad experience at our local hospital, he began to restore some faith for us. He was very approachable, thorough, knowledgeable, understanding and most of all he acknowledged our daughter, something which most people we have seen have not. We are extremely grateful we ended up in your care and we wish there were more like you. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Thank you for these kind words and to have been some help.
We have found our appointments with Dr Campbell to be very positive. He explained all the options in relation to our son's dietary requirements in detail and answered our questions fully. He has a friendly, calm and reassuring manner. He has also been very proactive; for example, he once made a personal phonecall to discuss our son and to reassure us that things were moving forward. Issues have been acted upon quickly and positively.

Thank you for your kind words and for taking the extra time to give this feed back. These words are shared at my annual appraisal and it is very helpful to have comments as evidence of professional and compassionate care. Kind regards, David Campbell
Dr Campbell had always been caring and compassionate towards my daughter. He explains things clearly and is very approachable. He explains the rationale for his decision making and allows for informed choice and decisions, where appropriate. I feel extremely confident in his decision making and the care he provides.

Thank you for taking the time to make these comments, they are much appreciated
Dr Campbell was very calm, reassuring and thorough. I had every faith that he would get to the bottom of my daughters condition. He filled us with confidence that she was in the best hands. We couldn’t ask for any more. Only wish all doctors were like this.

Thank you for taking the time to write these words, I am very grateful.
