I had an e-consultation with the doctor. It was a great experience and I'm looking forward to following the treatment plan and his advice. The platform worked well but one of my devices would not sync. I had to ask for the meeting link before the appointment.

Dr Moodley engaged in a very detailed and thorough discussion of my NHS MRI scans, symptoms and family history. He was extremely kind, helpful and knowledgeable and I would not hesitate to recommend him.
