Unlike any Consultant ive met prior. He clearly cares about each individual patient and one is left with the impression that Mr Ferguson will take as long as it needs to in order for the patient to fully understand diagnosis, treatment and next steps. Having no medical experience, I often struggle with understanding what medical professionals mean by termonology. No such frustration with Mr Ferguson. In short, he is knowledgeable, able to explain complex issues simply.....and cares enough to take the time to do exactly that. Every time. I would recommend Mr Ferguson unreservedly to anyone seeking an expert in the field of haematology.
