  • Very cold attitude and lack of friendliness. She then wanted me to go on statins because of high cholesterol. I am only 31 I think there is better solutions that just selling me drugs. I would definitely not recommend Dr Gati to others.

  • Dr. Gati is absolutely brilliant. I saw her when I needed urgent investigation because of a planned trip and she arranged everything incredibly quickly. Without the thorough investigation she arranged I never would have discovered my condition.
