Experience of consultation with Professor Paul Leeson. I was referred to Professor Leeson by my GP. I had chosen to see him because of lengthy delays for appointments with the NHS, which were also widely scattered across different sites in Oxford, some of which were impossible to travel to by car. By contrast, the appointments at the Manor Hospital were easy to attend, were arranged swiftly and the whole experience with Prof Leeson and his colleagues could not have been easier or more pleasurable. I found him to be very straight forward in his examination and consultations. He gave me a lot of reassurance about the state of my heart and the way forwards. I can give a very strong recommendation to anyone seeking a good assessment of their heart condition.

Any medical appointment is something I approach with trepidation. Prof Leeson was very caring and considerate and easy to talk to. He explained very thoroughly each part of my appointment and was very competent and reassuring.
