I could not have asked for more speedy attention and action from Prof Carr White his assistant Molly and the whole team. Both caring and reassuring. The initial consultation was quickly followed up by a stress test and even this was advanced when a cancellation became available. Within three days I had the whole episode thoroughly examined and a final discussion with Prof Carr White with a follow up plan booked for five months time. Outstanding, thank you.

Following the referral from my GP, Professor Carr-White made arrangements for a variety of tests to be done. I was impressed with the efficiency of the tests and his personal involvement and subsequent assessments. His explanations coupled with the computer findings were explained with a clear uncomplicated dialogue. Initially fearful of what the findings might reveal, his constant reassurance and professional integrity allayed this fear.
