Mr Dhar, in my view carried out an exemplary consultation. He was able to reassure me that there was no return of the cancer he operated on in 2019 and he also phoned a colleague to arrange a consultation that day at the Chaucer Hotel with regards to my chest problem. I was very impressed with the service he offered
