DR Islam was very clear in explaining my condition and the pro's and con's of having a stent
Waiting time for appointment was minimal. My discussions with Doctor Shahed Islam was informative and easy to understand.
The experience was all good, everyone was professional and very helpful. Dr Islam took the time to listen to me explain my concerns.
First class doctor and extremely proud man very helpful and knowledgeable
Dr Islam greeted my husband and me warmly.. He explained that I had been called to a cardiology appointment to check how I was following a fainting episode in June. He questioned me very thoroughly and reassured me that what I had suffered was indeed a faint. Although the focus of my appointment was not intended to assess my AF, when I expressed my concern about my current drug regime, Dr Islam gwas kind and patient, showing me potential side—effects and reassuring me all should be fine. My husband & I left the consultation feeling we had been treated by a very competent, kind and empathetic doctor. Thank you!
Explained my issue from our first ever incounter,then he explained the process in detail going forward,very reassuring and informative .
Very welcoming, informative and reassuring. Felt very comfortable throughout our time together.
Dr Islam was very considerate taking time to explain my recent scans and future steps. He answered my questions and concerns with clarity for which I was extremely grateful. He did not at any time rush the consultation and gave me the distinct impression that he wanted me to go away armed with all the knowledge I needed to move forward. Very impressed indeed with the manner in which my consultation was conducted.
Dr Isam gave me plenty of time. We discussed my test results & decided on the next treatment plan for me. I now have a clear understanding of my hearts health. Dr Islam was kind clear & compassionate
He took time explain everything clearly and gave helpful advice on the procedure and treatment.
