Very professional, warm and kind. Very clear with instructions and it’s very apparent that she cares for her patients. 10/10 service. Thank you

I consulted Dr Srikantha as I was concerned about the deterioration in my mobility. I cannot recommend her too highly. From the outset, her manner was professional but also warm and friendly. She left no stone unturned to ensure her diagnosis was correct. At every stage, Dr Srikantha explained the reasons for her investigation and followed up clearly with her findings. Although she took care to ensure I understood, at no time did I feel in anyway patronised. She always treated me as an intelligent individual, and with great courtesy. A thoroughly professional lady.

I found Dr Srikantha to be very reassuring and thorough during and after the appointment. I also appreciated how clearly she explained the diagnosis and the plan moving forward. I felt listened to and well cared for, and I would be very happy to recommend her. I also found the admin side of the appointment to be really efficient, from the booking process to the offer of a video or telephone call instead of face-to-face for follow-up appointments. The efficiency around the post-appointment letter to my GP was also very much appreciated, and I felt well included throughout. I look forward to our next appointment. Thanks, Nicola E

My initial MRI had shown a anomaly and a time of flight MRA showed an aneurysm. Dr Srikantha explained size, probably nothing to be worried about but needed to be referred to someone with the relevant expertise. Referral carried out the same day of the appointment with her

Dr Srikantha is a brilliant doctor. Throughout my consultation she was kind, caring, clear, and took the time to listen to my symptoms and completely understand them. I felt that my concerns were fully listened to, and she treated me at all times with kindness, respect, and consideration. She referred me for next steps quickly and explained my test results clearly and in language I could understand. She was very reassuring and sympathetic. I would certainly recommend Dr Srikantha to other patients without hesitation.
