"Fantastic remote assessment"

My Dad recently had a remote assessment with Dr Sitaram following his first seizure. The appointment was fantastic. The Dr took his time to speak to Dad and Mum making sure he had a full and accurate picture of Dad's presentation and health history. Indeed his skills were such that we were able to unearth aspects of our family history previously not considered relevant by ourselves.

His manner was lovely, reassuring and very patient. He gave Dad a thorough and comprehensive explanation of his potential diagnosis, proposed further investigations and treatment plan.As a hearing aid user Dad was anxious about being able to hear so had asked myself to sit in on the consultation but Dr Sitaram's excellent communication skills meant I was not needed.

At Dad's request we wanted to thank Dr Sitaram and Graham for their time and work arranging this appointment, it has been so reassuring and Dad feels much better knowing that driving may again may be in his future.

Thank you again for your time, compassion and understanding. As a regional service the challenges facing neurology are significant and it speaks to the professionalism and dedication of the staff that at no point has Dad felt like a number or statistic.
