- 1st visit to see Dr Robinson for advice. He was professional caring and empathic listened to my concerns. The consultation was not rushed and he took the time to explain and clarify my health issues. He was warm caring the epitome of what a doctor should be. Thank you Dr Robinson
- Dr. James Andrew Robinson is incredible. Not only he has taken great care of my health, but also he was so lovely to speak with at every appointment. Very knowledgeable and professional, all has been sorted. It’s rare to find a doctor that combines such personal touches and care for a patient as a person with outstanding quality of medical care. I am extremely excited of the service, everything was excellent from the start to the end. I don’t have enough words to accomplish the doctor, but that was one of the most amazing doctors I ever met in my entire life. Very nice personality also. I highly recommend him!
- Every member of staff at the Spire were very helpful and friendly. Dr Robinson has an excellent bedside manner and makes you feel very relaxed. He is easy to talk to and describes medical issues in a way that you can understand. Very helpful.
- Really positive experience with someone who genuinely listened and has given me some hope for the future. Totally recommend
- Very happy with the consultant and appointment though we made it directly with the hospital in the end which was quicker. We were contacted by Top Doctor though by phone.
