Reviews
Dr Pendleton explained everything clearly and he was very reassuring throughout the consultation. He took the time to go through everything in detail, and I was very happy with the plan
Dr Adrian was well mannered and supportive when discussing concerns
I had questions prepared to ask & had ample opportunity to get answers to them all. Explanations were full & straightforward with illustrations. Dr Pendleton has a lovely approach, relaxed and gentle which makes communication easy & effective.
I had my first visit with Mr Pendleton recently and his manner of professionalism and his explaining of my condition was very easy to follow and understand I would have no problem in recommending Mr Pendleton to anyone
Dr Pendleton is a very professional and knowledgeable doctor who I have had as my consultant for two appointments over the last month. He was approachable, well-mannered, friendly, and kind throughout. After carrying out tests and a very thorough examination, he was able to provide answers that no one had previously been able to give me. My diagnosis and treatment plan were then carefully explained to both myself and a family member in a way that was clear and easy to understand. Every question we had was answered, and I left the appointment feeling much happier and far more reassured. Thank you for making me feel so well cared for and, most importantly, truly listened to — that meant more to me than anything. An exceptional doctor. Highly recommended.
