Charming doctor who put you at ease enabling you to relate your symptoms without embarrassment and made you feel that she had your interests at heart.

Very informative and caring

Dr Rakshit quickly made me comfortable despite my worry about persistent health concerns including disturbing pain. She methodically explored and eliminated causes until the diagnosis was achieved. She clearly explained options throughout and her engaging manner inspired trust and confidence in her. I hope never to need her assistance again but I would refer to Dr Rakshit without hesitation and with absolute confidence. A lovely lady too.

Both my husband and I have been under the care of Dr Rakshit. She is such a lovely doctor, so personable and kind and puts you at ease straight away. Her investigation is always thorough and pragmatic. This together with an holistic approach instils total confidence in her ability to resolve the issue. Every part of the process is discussed and clearly explained so that you know exactly what is happening. We would both recommend her without hesitation.

Dr Rakshit is a very personable person and has a very nice manner. The treatment I had was problem free and could not be faulted.

I recently had a colonoscopy with Dr Rakshit. I was quite anxious as although being sedated I thought I would still be able to feel the procedure. I can honestly say I will never feel anxious again. I found it an interesting experience. I was awake but relaxed and knew what was happening. Dr Rakshit is so kind and caring and makes you feel at ease. She explains things clearly and I felt I could easily talk to her and I didn’t feel rushed. She has taken away all my anxiety about having this procedure done again in the future.
5
Very clear explanations of everything. Friendly and reassuring. Knew her subject inside and out (forgive pun). No negatives at all. Highly recommended.
5
Dr Rakshit is excellent. She is approachable, gives detailed and clear explanations and answers all questions fully. Dr Rakshit made me feel she was truly concerned about my symptoms and fully engaged in alleviating them.
5
Dr Rakshit gave me excellent care from start to finish. She was an incredibly careful listener, meticulously noting down my symptoms and discussing the possible causes. She communicated clearly and considerately and I never felt uncomfortable, despite having some fairly personal and intimate problems. She also gave me useful advice about the differing options for my care so that I could make some informed choices. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
