Dr Sabharwal is very knowledgable, inviting and easy to talk. I had a proactive consultation to run through my family history, blood results and concerns. Beyond, the main consultation itself, Dr Sabharwal was able to discuss some of the intricacies of foods affecting the body, priority of lifestyle change and made the consultation experience fun - I learnt a lot.

The nurse who supported my father prior to the appointment was very attentive to my father and his specific needs. She was very patient with him. Dr Sabharwal was clear, gave very good and important advise. He was reassuring, also advising my father to try gentle exercise as well as reading through his previous reports prior to our attendance at the hospital. I was thoroughly impressed. He exemplified what being a medical professional is meant to be - a source of empathy, trustworthiness, excellent communication as well as having the clinical competence needed for the appointment to hand.
