Cant fault doctor Irving its a pleasure knowing that I am in very capable hands she explains perfectly to me what is going on this is very reassuring she is very approachable and understanding im so glad to have a specialist like her involved in my care .
Dr Irving is always professional, compassionate and friendly. Possibly faultless!
Dr Irving is brilliant! She listens carefully, gives expert advice, ensures all the necessary tests and treatments are implemented, and treats you like an adult. I feel so grateful that she is my Consultant. Much to my surprise, at gone 5.30pm I was also able to get my bloods taken and have a chest xray, to avoid having to trek up to the hospital another time. Well done Kings. And the building is air conditioned! (I attended on one of the 32 degrees days.)
I felt listened to and my concerns were responded to alongside Dr’s aims and objections. Always a helpful consult.
My medical experience with Dr Irving was an excellent type of consultation that a patient requires when faced urgently with an unknown ( for me ) symptoms of a diagnosis that was both unexpected & complicated to be explained. She was extremely supportive & helpful to clarify my symptoms & offer help for a better diagnosis & treatment of my illness. I am truly grateful & appreciative of her knowledge, expertise & time spent in my consultation with me. Many Thanks!
Nothing much to add to my markings other than received helpful advice
Dr. Katherine has been incredibly helpful and attentive to my fibromyalgia diagnosis. She takes a holistic approach to managing my chronic illness and truly takes the time to understand what I'm going through, rather than simply prescribing medication without listening, something I unfortunately experienced with other rheumatologists in the past. Best of all she is giving me the hope that I can get better, which I very much needed.
Absolutely lovely lady and a true professional with a beautiful soul
Dr Katherine Irving is an incredible & outstanding Consultant. She is kind, caring & patient & I hold her in the highest of regard. She also has a great sense of humour so even when I feel really poorly, she manages to bring a much needed smile to my face!
This was my second appointment toDr Irving for treatment for Polyarticular Gout on both occasions I was treated with the upmost respect and kindness I cannot believe how much my pain and swelling has reduced the hole department are great
