I found him easy to access and communicate with, very thoughtful in his examinations and feedback with a caring attitude at all times.
Dr Sathyanurthy immediately put me at ease and explained everything very clearly and concisely. His prescribed medication worked amazingly quickly and I am now basically symptom free. I felt as though he really cared
I was given an appointment very quickly and follow up appts were done by telephone which was more convenient for me.
Dr Sathyamurthy was friendly as always and very welcoming. We went through some results and asked if I had any questions.
I was asked to see Dr Sathyamurthy regarding a problematic long term cough which I'd had for probably a year. Four visits to my GP with no outcome and they recommended I see an expert. Dr Sathy as he likes to called was very thorough and went through a number of probability tests. In the end he carried out a bronchoscopy on my lungs and took some biopsy's. The lungs were clear however, the biopsy showed a nasty bug which is normally found in badly affected lungs and was rare in clear lungs. I was given a course of antibiotics and the lungs have cleared up and coughing has stopped. Dr Sathy is a kind gentleman, he speaks with a soft voice and has a very good Dr /patient relationship. I would 100% recommend Dr Sathy to anyone seeking advice.
I have been having difficulties with Asthma over the past couple of years and thankfully I was able to be referred to Dr Sathyamurthy as a private patient. Communication with Sathy has been excellent, he is very thorough in understanding problems and has reacted quickly to arrange scans and blood tests to come to a diagnosis and plan for treatment. I would recommend him without question.
