Dr West’s thinking was very focused with clear explanations. Even Decided to discuss my case with her colleagues for extra information.

Dr West is very approachable and friendly. She listened and answered questions and always followed up with a very professional letter to my gp explaining the consultation. This was done really quickly and it so helpful to have a written reference for the future. Seeing her at the Spire Hospital was preferable for me, rather than Oxford due to distance and parking. I have an on-going condition and it is reassuring to know I can see her when needed.

I had a consultation with Dr West who was very clear with her advice and diagnosis, as well as next steps to take. She was very understanding and patient with my questions.

I can only apologise if there has somehow been an oversight to any follow up arrangements that were planned. Could I ask you to contact my secretary so that we can look into this further.

Impressed with my appointment, Dr West understood my issue very quickly and put my mind at rest and quickly arranged for follow up test. The speed at which the letter was issued is the fastest I have experienced to date
