"A wonderful, understanding & clever doctor"

About: Bingley Medical Practice

After speaking to this doctor about an unrelated condition over the phone in August this year, I happened to mention that I had some pain in my hand. The doctor instantly questioned me further and insisted I went for a consultation ASAP. I was given an appointment with this doctor a few days later. The examination I was given identified that I had joint pain in my hands and feet and as a result this very same doctor referred me to the Rheumatology department at the hospital as a matter of urgency. I was seen at the hospital within 2 weeks of this doctor seeing me and it was then that I was diagnosed with early stage Rheumatoid Arthritis. Over the past few months this condition has progressed rapidly but thanks to the due diligence of this fabulous professional I have had quick and effective treatment, something that many other professionals have commented is thanks to this doctor picking it up so quickly. Over the past few years this same individual has also been treating me for a gynaecological condition and my son an anxiety and stress condition. Throughout all this we have been treated with the upmost respect and professionalism. Again, because my 15 year old son was immediately taken so seriously with a mental health issue, by this doctor, we were given all sorts of support to nip his struggles in the bud before it progressed into something much more sinister. My son and I, again by this doctor, were put in touch with a number of organisations (Relate & Mind Bradford) that provided counselling sessions for him. In this day and age when the NHS get such a bad press I wish I could name this individual because this doctor should be recognised for, in my opinion, being an outstanding, caring, friendly and down to earth practitioner! Thank you......you know who you are!
