My appointment with Dr Nikant Sabharwal was excellent. I wish every hospital visit could be like that. He made me feel welcome from the start and discussed my results in real depth, including what might be causing them. He took the time to walk me through my results and explain them in simple terms, which really helped given my limited medical knowledge. When he carried out further tests, he talked me through each step of the process. An all-round fantastic doctor.
