A visit to a doctor can never really be a pleasure but Professor Henein and his supporting staff made the consultation as comfortable and as efficient as possible. Plenty of people can be kind but ineffective; others can be ruthlessly productive but show no sense of humanity. Combing warmth and efficiency is a hard task which Professor Henein and his teams at both clinics combined. I am returning for a further test next week but feel sure that I will receive the same courteous treatment.
