Had a really good first consultation. Dr Jaikumar provided lots of information and took time to explain my condition. He is a very knowledgeable consultant and was focussed on getting to the bottom of my problems and finding solutions. Honestly I was surprised at the speed for my next steps. I felt like finally, someone is not only listening and explaining, but is taking action. Thank you

Dr. J, was his usual engaging, personable self. He spent enough time with me, unhurried to make me feel calm and cared for, answered all my questions and walked me to the exit. I felt much better about my future health prospects than when I entered.
