Reviews
Ho conosciuto il dottor Garrard quando avevo dei problemi di memoria e di concentrazione. Si è presentato subito come molto disponibile, attento nell'ascolto e attento nell'analisi. Mi ha dato il tempo di esporre i miei problemi, in più sedute successive, mi ha rivisto dopo accertamenti che mi aveva consigliato e mi ha prescritto la terapia. Ho avuto dei risultati eccellenti e spero di continuare ad averne ancora di migliori. Posso consigliarlo a chiunque abbia problemi neurologici o ritenga di averli. Persona estremamente competente e disponibile. I met Dr. Garrard when I was experiencing problems with memory and concentration. He immediately presented himself as very approachable, attentive and careful in his analysis. He gave me time to explain my problems over several subsequent appointments. After reviewing the tests he had recommended, he prescribed a treatment and I achieved excellent results. I can recommend him to anyone who has neurological problems. He is an extremely competent and helpful person.
Consultant was very knowledgeable considerate and caring and provided very clear recommendations on next steps
Professor Garrard has an exceptional ability to combine clinical expertise with genuine humanity. He explains complex neurological issues clearly, without ever being patronising, and takes time to understand the whole person not just the symptoms. I would not hesitate to recommend Professor Garrard to anyone seeking careful, intelligent, and compassionate care.
Peter was easy to talk with and explained things simply in a manner we could understand. We didn't feel rushed, and felt more knowledgable about Mums situation.
