Explanation

Seeva has been a great help to me over the whole of 2021. I've had a succession of medical conditions over the whole of the year and he has always been patient, knowledgeable and exceedingly kind. I have known Seeva for 5 years or so, and he has always shown me the same gentle but strong attitude to the demands that I make of him. He is "unflappable " and always seeks to find practical ways to help me.

Could not be happier with Dr Murugiah Seevaratnam. A true professional in his field, and a doctor that looks at the bigger picture. Really easy to talk to, listens to your concerns, and addresses them one by one. A very thorough doctor. I felt as though my usual doctors weren't listening to me, where as with Dr Seevaratnam, we discussed at length my background and the struggles I have faced, and carried out numerous blood tests to rule out any issues there. Could not recommend highly enough.

Explanation

Dear Dr Seevaratnam Thank you for coming to see me at the Spire Hospital in Harpenden on the 7th of October. On the 6th the day after a TURP I found myself on the floor of my room on two occasions with no understanding of how I got there. You diagnosed Postural Hypotension as the cause. In June this year I had a fractured neck of femur and Postural Hypotension after the anaesthetic I was given for surgery to the hip which delayed my leaving hospital at that time. Your diagnosis reassured me that I was not losing my marbles in old age and reassured the nurses allowing them to discharge me from hospital. As regards my essential tremor I have not noticed any amelioration from drinking alcohol. So I am very grateful for your visit but do not think that your further review is necessary. Thank you John

I am filling this in on behalf of my mother who is 95. She went to see Dr Seevaranam following a hip replacement surgery and issues resulting from 'foot drop' and a possible adverse reaction to anaesthetic. In fact we ended up with a general 'mot' and overhaul of her health and medication. Best thing we did for my mother. Things were sorted quickly and certainly much faster then our under pressure nhs. Obviously you have pay but prices not to bad at all.

Dr Seevaratnam takes time to explain thoroughly what is going on in your body. He has very good memory and will recall incidents of many years ago. He is very accessible on the phone. There are very few doctors one can say that about these days. Both he and his secretary will answer your calls.
