Very happy with Dr Puntmann as my consultant. I always feel heard and understood. At the hospital she took the time to talk to me before and after my treatments.

Dr Puntmann is an excellent doctor. She brings both a deep understanding of cutting-edge cardiology with research into inflammation and immune function. I saw her for heart problems post Covid and she listened, ran many tests to obtain a complete picture, took the time to explain the results to me and then prescribed innovative (and established) drugs to combat those problems. She then followed up, adjusted and I can honestly say I feel so much better. I understand she is involved in the latest clinical trials in this area and has been published widely - I was very lucky to have her as one of my options. I would wholly recommend her.

A very good listener, extremely understanding and talented at explaining what’s going on in layman’s language. Also I found Dr Puntmann to be particularly responsive to my additional queries via email.
Thank you so much, very kind indeed !

I had spent two years looking for answers and finally have some thanks to Dr Puntmann taking my concerns seriously. She has been very helpful and explains things very well and it is great to be looked after by someone who is clearly such an expert in the area. Thank you

Dr Puntmann is very personable and professional. She has superb expertise and is adept at giving clear explanations about my condition, and how best it should be treated. She is very open to questions, indeed welcomes these. Dr Puntmann also goes out of her way to accept email queries, and to flex treatment in response to changes in my condition. She is a first rate physician, I cannot recommend her highly enough.
