I have had recent problems with Angina. Dr Levy did a great job, evaluating the problem and providing solutions that I was comfortable with. He then organised scan and referral appointments and dealt with the many complications thrown up by my health insurance company. Further medication was prescribed and communicated to my GP practice. I can now see a clear path forward and thank Dr Levy for his intervention.
