- Dr Singh has helped me cure a cough, thought to be caused by Bronchiectasis, that I have suffered for over 10 years. The results have transformed my life from continual coughing 24 x 7 to a normal clearing of the throat every so often. I will be forever grateful. Thank you Dr Singh 👏😀
- Following the initial Consultation with Dr Singh at F'Hall I have had numerous follow ups at RPH and on every occasion I have found him to be polite, jovial and extremely considerate of my diagnosis. He takes time out to understand my symptoms and goes at length to explain treatment and options available. He is an excellent clinician who is more than well supported by his secretary, Michelle Wadeson. To date my treatment has been first class.
