Completey put me at ease from the moment we met. I Opened up about a bad start to my teen life that I chose and was not proud of. And wanted to look to for look any lasting damage. It didn't phase him at all or look down on me either. I just wanted to give the full picture, Being a father of 2 young boys now,1 0 years married and running a company in this total show of sh*te after surviving the pandemic. Mental stress made me physically ill. Mr Khatwa carried out extensive checks and again after 6 weeks later. Relieved me of all my main worries :) Very professional consultant and wouldn't have any doubs about returning if I need help in the future 😀 im sticking to my reccomdations, and I feel back in the embrace side of life 😊 Thankyou

Generally very good and will recommend. Only concern is that I'm not 100% clear on what was the root cause of the health issue that has hopefully been fully resolved by Mr Khatwa and the pharmacy was not able to issue the prescription in full due to issues with the shelf life of the medication.
