Dr Gavin Thomas was an excellent listener and most articulate in his explanation of my father’s condition. He comprehensively guided us through the various parameters of how he would undertake a differential diagnosis and was also able to offer immediate medical feedback in the form of tests done on the spot - a most welcome service. He was gentle with, respectful to, and inclusive in how he communicated with and examined my 92-year-old father. All-in-all, a fantastic consultation.
