How I work

  • I listen to the whole story before I examine or order tests.
  • I explain what each medicine is for and how it will help.
  • I prescribe only the medicines and tests you need.
  • I give diet and lifestyle advice that fits your age, weight and daily life.
  • Many tests are done in the clinic, so you do not wait days for a report.
