Reviews
Excellent experience with Dr Chelliah at the Spire, Leicester. From consultation to investigations, everything went smoothly. I was referred for irregular heart rhythms and he put me at ease with a calm and professional manner.
Dr Chelliah is an excellent consultant. He is calm, friendly and makes you feel at ease. I’m very grateful that I am under his care for my heart problem.
Rajesh was extremely professional at all times and went above and beyond in his approach. His clear explanation of the investigations, combined with the reassurance he provided, was second to none. I felt fully informed and supported throughout – truly excellent.
Rajesh, as always, was incredibly helpful and thoughtful, thoroughly investigating and explaining symptoms
Dr Chelliah was excellent in handling my recent cardiac investigations. He explained everything in simple terms and was very reassuring about each of the procedures and what the outcomes might reveal. He made me feel very relaxed about everything and relieved my anxiety with his calm and professional approach and attitude. In the best possible way, I hope I don’t need his services again. But if I do, I would be first to ask to be placed under his care.
