Explanation

Dr Kanagala is an expert in his field - he was able to examine me quickly and recommend an appropriate and proportionate approach to diagnostic testing to rule out any cardiac cause of my intermittent chest pain. He took the time to carefully listen to my symptoms, and explain all test results thoroughly, which really helped my understanding and ultimately left me feeling very reassured. I was so impressed with my experience that I recommended Dr Kanagala to a family member who was also experiencing chest symptoms, and he has had an equally positive experience.
