I consulted Dr Harrison recently for a possible irregular heartbeat. On initial consultation he was able to reassure me, answer clearly any questions I had and after further investigations was able to feedback my results over the phone promptly without the need for waiting for another face-to -face consultation. Thank you too to Dr Harrison’s PA who took care of the admin regarding this process. Immediate replies and quick turnaround made the whole worrying health episode a professional, caring and reassuring experience.
