I felt very reassured after my consultation. I had previously seen my GP and was not happy after having an ECG I was to be further referred which could mean waiting 12+ months. I am In my dotage and to me the matter was urgent which Mr Hargreaves understood.

Explanation

I desperately needed clear and straight answers to my questions. I am 78 and AF is the first illness that has seriously affected my lifestyle and my ability to function normally. Although I was diagnosed 12 months ago my consultation with Dr Hargreaves was the first time since I was referred to Cardiology by my GP, ( who is excellent) I felt anybody was interested in listening to my concerns. He suggested a course of action and a clear way forward for which I am grateful.

Explanation

I had a consultation with Dr Hargreaves on 1st June 2021. He put me at ease straight away with his friendly demeanor. He gave me the most thorough examination I have had in a long time, not only concentrating on the heart but on my respiratory system as well. He explained what he had found and his diagnosis of my problem which he concluded was not my heart but my respiratory system. We then discussed what to do next and with his advice formulated the next part of the diagnostic process. His follow up letter to my GP was concise and straight to the point. I would thoroughly recommend Dr Hargreaves and would not hesitate to consult him again should the need arise. Many thanks.
