- Dr Krishnamoorthy is excellent and overall this was an outstanding experience. The two pieces of constructive feedback I'd give are (a) the admin team calling to make arrangements to prepare for the procedure should leave a voicemail or text message - all to easy to mistake them for a cold caller and miss the call; (b) check with the patient whether a telephone appointment is acceptable for the follow up when the test is all clear.
- I am very happy with how Dr Krishnamoorthy handled my case. He was very professional, polite, friendly and took his time to explain things to me. I felt relieved after my treatment. Thank you for your service.
