Dr Rakesh Jivan has always been extremely helpful and supportive whenever I have needed medical advice. When I developed a painful boil on my leg, he guided me through the next steps and ensured I sought the appropriate treatment. He has also provided valuable advice regarding ongoing knee problems and helped point me in the right direction for further assessment. He is knowledgeable, approachable and genuinely cares about his patients. I have always found him willing to listen and explain things clearly. Thank you for your continued support and guidance. I would highly recommend Dr Rakesh Jivan.

I recently took my daughter to see Dr. JIvan and I had a very positive experience. He was friendly, welcoming, and immediately made my daughter feel at ease, which helped her feel comfortable throughout the appointment. The consultation was thorough and never felt rushed. Dr. JIvan took the time to listen carefully, explain everything clearly, and gave me plenty of opportunities to ask questions. I felt involved in the discussion and left feeling reassured and well-informed. I really appreciated his professional yet approachable manner and would highly recommend him to other families.

I’m very grateful to Dr Jivan for helping me understand my glucose levels by installing a Lingo glucose monitor. He fitted the device painlessly in my upper arm and patiently explained the readings over time — it was truly eye-opening and has helped me make better food choices. I would highly recommend Dr Jivan’s services and would 100% use him again.

Really great experience with Dr Jivan. We were quite worried about our sons jaw tic, but he helped us get seen by the right specialists very quickly and really went the extra mile—calling hospitals for us and pushing things along. He was calm, reassuring, and explained everything clearly without overcomplicating it. We felt genuinely supported throughout. Would definitely recommend.

Thank you for your generous review. This was definitely a case that needed urgent intervention and I am glad we were able to facilitate that referral for you without having to wait longer than needed in the A&E department. I hope symptoms have improved. Best wishes.

My daughter has been suffering with her symptoms for a while now. Dr Jivan listened to our issues with a sympathetic ear (as he always does) and attempted to understand the root causes of the medical issues. He came up with short term and longer term solutions, which enabled me to feel at ease and that something was being done. Luckily the shorter term solution worked. I have always had extremely positive experiences for any of my kids, or for myself with Dr Jivan. I know we are in safe, well cared for hands with a doctor that always goes above and beyond.

I had some difficulty hearing with a blocked ear. After a quick and swift appointment, the blockage was cleared and all back to normal. I was very pleased at the availability of getting an appointment and felt very comfortable with the whole process. I would fully recommend Dr Jivan, for prompt and professional services.

Dr R. Jivan is an outstanding doctor who genuinely goes above and beyond for his patients. I originally saw him for a minor procedure, which he carried out quickly, efficiently, and completely pain-free. What really stood out was his attentiveness and willingness to help beyond the initial reason for my visit. When I mentioned I had been suffering from vertigo following a viral infection, he took the time to assess me and offered to try the Epley manoeuvre. The results were incredible—I experienced about a 90% improvement in my symptoms almost immediately. Dr Jivan is clearly very knowledgeable, but also compassionate and proactive in his approach. He listens, explains things clearly, and takes action where it can make a real difference. I highly recommend Dr Jivan to anyone looking for a dedicated and skilled doctor.

Thank you for kind words and generous review. I am really glad we were able to address both issues within the same consultation. I know how surprised you were by the Epley's manoeuvre but it really is as simple as that! Glad to hear you are feeling better. Best wishes.
