Explanation

My two children and I saw Dr Brennan for assessment of hEDS. I found Dr Brennan extremely thorough and knowledgeable- and he was able to also engage our autistic son well. Dr Brennan had a good understanding of the difficulties we faced as a family unit and provided reassurance and validation. A very nice doctor to see - we would highly recommend.

Highly recommended- We travelled as a family from Northern Ireland to Dr Brennan’s London clinic, in regard to our 17 year old son. Dr Brennan immediately put us at ease and was extremely patient as he listened to an extensive medical history and summary of our journeys towards diagnoses, including my own diagnosis of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS). Dr Brennan examined our son and made a clinical diagnosis of hEDS. We arranged a further appointment for our 14 year old daughter and we experienced the same level of professionalism. Once again there was a diagnosis of hEDS; followed by a comprehensive report for us to share with our health professionals. We really appreciated his kind and caring approach and would highly recommend Dr Brennan to anyone concerned that they may have EDS.

Explanation

I saw Dr Brennan to get his expert opinion on what I thought was probably hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome but had been severely invalidated by numerous NHS specialist teams I've seen. I'm very complex (or a few others might say "complicated") and have signifiant history of mental health issues. I am aware EDS is notoriously hard to get validated as a diagnosis, but because of my MH issues, specialists were even more keen to conclude "its in your head because of you past traumas". I am still on a diagnostic journey with my different specialists trying to get them on board with my physical problems being linked to EDS, its only the mere start but thanks to Dr Brennan's specialist knowledge and excellent clinic letter this is really going to help on this complicated journey! Dr Brennan is very caring, validating and very knowledgeable. His clinic letter was so refreshing that unlike all other clinic letters didn't start off going off on one about my "significant mental health issues".... Thank you for the validation I so desperately needed! Life changing. Literally!

Couldn’t recommend highly enough. We had an extremely complex issue which Dr. Brennan explained throughly to use, and was followed up with a comprehensive report. We didn’t feel rushed, and had enough time to ask many, many, questions.

Explanation

Although I had a short interaction with Dr. Brennan I found his explanation very clear. He was very interested in my family history and my concern relating to breast cancer risk. He presented to me with a graphical support the various genes which may impact the development of risk cancer and recommended, based on his experience, the best test that I should take. I felt very comfortable in his presence and trust his experience and knowledge in the matter.
