Very pleasent consultant and explained everything about what happens next would not hesitate to recomend mr smith as your consultant
My experience seeing Dr Smith from initial consultation, to the endoscopy procedures, to the follow up reports and consultation was superb. He is incredibly professional, knowledgable and reassuring. I felt genuinely comfortable and at ease during both the endoscopy and colonoscopy - so much so that I would now not worry at all if I ever needed to have either again. I would thoroughly recommend Dr Smith.
1st time meeting Mr Smith, I was a little bit nervous meeting a new consultant but I had no need to worry. I was seen within minutes of arriving. All staff very approachable and friendly.

Thank you for the kind feedback. Much appreciated.
