I was showing palindromic symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis for some time before diagnosis, then a blood test for another condition showed up lots of areas of inflammation, alerting my GP, who then referred me to Dr Cates at the Nightingale.
He was very thorough in his diagnosis, the prescribed treatments, (which have been taking place over nearly 2 years in combination with regular blood tests) and very diligent with follow up appointments.
He is an excellent communicator and showed great understanding and empathy towards me and my condition. I felt truly valued.
This highly personalised treatment has resulted in significant improvements to my quality of life and general well being, as well as successfully helping me to manage my condition.
I cannot thank Dr Cates and all the support staff enough. The level of care been absolutely first rate, in all respects. Well done!
