He was lovely made me feel at ease straight away, very polite and even laughed at my bad jokes. Explained so much to me that no other healthcare professional had about my condition which made me feel such relief that it wasn't all in my mind. Would highly recommend him and I've seen A LOT of doctors! But he is 5* +
