Very thorough, great attention to detail with easy to understand explanations

Excellent communication, very helpful and through, I would highly recommend Jonathan Kwan to anyone having kidney issues.

Dr Jonathan was really easy to talk to and really thorough in his investigation making me feel really relaxed and less stress. Definetly took his time to investigate fully before making any conclusions of the diagnosis based on reports provided by the GP. I am really grateful for that as it turned out the initial classification in my case was not correct. He also made sure to explain the process and his thought process before prescribing any test and explained the results really well. Will definitely recommend Dr Jonathan.

Efficient service and well explained and thoughtful feedback given. Made the entire process much easier.

Dr Kwan was very efficient. I had an appointment within 24 hours of contacting him. He explained everything fully, using analogies to help, and was very open and honest about the potential issues. He organised my tests on the same day as meeting him and he followed up immediately. He shared the consultation letter and allowed me to comment if applicable. He answered all my questions. Overall he was very kind and caring.

What an amazing man. It was a pleasure speaking to him. He accommodated a video consultation at very short notice, especially at a busy time of year. He gave me a detailed explanation in a kind, clear, professional and knowledgeable manner. All my questions were answered and his relaxed manner put me at ease and reassured me. I would not hesitate to recommend an appointment with Dr Kwan.

I started seeing Dr Kwan when I was first experiencing symptoms, which at that time I didn’t know what or whether it was a kidney issue. At the first meeting, Dr Kwan immediately diagnosed the condition with his abundance of knowledge & experience but also put me at ease. He responds very promptly to any queries and makes himself available even on evenings & weekends. He always explains things in the simplest way possible and provides assurance. I’m very grateful for his help!

Dr Kwan is extremely professional and put me immediately at ease, when I first met him. He has a great sense of humor and a real ability to be able to connect with you as a patient. He takes the time to explain each of the tests that are being run, with a full explanation as to why and what insight he will gain. Most importantly he puts these in layman terms so you can understand them as a non medical professional. Once the tests have been run he then takes the opportunity to give clear and concise feedback about the outcome of the tests, along with any further recommendations for additional investigations that do not fall within his area of expertise. I can highly recommend him
