I saw Professor Srirajaskanthan for an initial consultation and his calming manner put me at ease immediately. He seemed to have a good idea of what was going on for me and a subsequent colonoscopy proved he was right. I would highly recommend him. I will definitely be having any future procedures I might need with him.
