Explanation

I had a good experience under the care of Professor Hull. I came to Professor Hull a few months ago after struggling with some medical issues. He was very diligent and works very quickly to identify the problem and come up with a treatment plan. He also took the time to listen to me about my medical issues, and explained every step of the process in a clear and easily understandable way. From the first consultation I felt confident Professor Hull would be attentive to my needs and provide clear direction for my medical plan. Overall, I experienced a kind and friendly service. I would recommend Professor Hull to anyone in need of medical needs

Absolutely everyone from start to finish were amazing. James was so helpful and patient and is definitely an expert. I would recommend him above anyone else and it was well worth the visit to London. He has since referred me for respiratory physiotherapy and they so far to date have been really responsive. Excellent all round.

Explanation

My experience with Prof. James Hull was absolutely excellent. I suffered from unexplained breathlessness and intermittent chest and upper back pain. He found the root cause quickly. He immediately referred me on for further specialist investigation. That was quickly actioned by the PA of the consultant he referred me to. His efficient actions meant that I was able to get a rapid diagnosis and the treatment I desperately needed. He is one of the best consultants that I have seen and I thoroughly recommend him. He takes time to listen to the patient carefully and explains the diagnostic tests needed. My experience was excellent in terms of the medical consultation and diagnosis that I received from him.

The best doctor I've ever seen - calm, super-friendly but professional demeanour, reassuringly thorough, really seems to care. He's also so efficient that when I left the hospital, I instantly got a follow-up call from another hospital for tests where he'd already referred me. Very impressed.

Excellent respiratory physician who I have been referring patients to that have problems with shortness of breath, breathing difficulties during exercise and 'long covid'. He can provide a 'cardiopulmonary exercise' (CPET) test, which can determine how the heart and lungs respond to exercise.
