The Best GP I have ever had! She really listens to what you say and then when she knows what you need to do whether it is something she can deal with or something out of her control she is a world apart from any other GP I have ever had when it comes to explaining why your problem exists and what can be done to help it, She must be a sponge when it comes to learning because her knowledge on lots of areas including things that GP's would not usually be experts on is deep and again her explanations extremely clear and helpful. She has been instrumental in me seeing the right person and getting a diagnosis and treatment for a condition that I have had all my life but no GP before her has ever managed to help with at all, Rather than try lots of medications that are not meant for my issues like her predecessors she went right to the root with good advise and the right referrals so now I have a diagnosis and the right medication which is not available through a GP without a specialist consultant's prescription. she also understood the genetic reasons for some of the side effects of other medication I was on and was able to give me sound advice on how to counteract them which on further research I found to be the most accurate and best advice available. Importantly she has never once googled anything during an appointment, she pays full attention to the patient looking at you not the computer and knows what she is talking about without looking it up, I never like to see a doctor googling things as I could do that at home, I'm going there to see an expert not a novice so except in a few rare circumstances it's not acceptable to me. My wife is disabled and I have health issues of my own along with the fact that my GP surgery can't hold on to doctors for long means that I have seen many many GP's in recent years some good some bad but none that demonstrate that she wants to help you sort out the problem as much as Dr Ladhani does, there are things she could signpost and tell you to go and look up but instead she explains in detail and in plain english how you can help yourself or how treatment can help you. I know there are far more complicated patients than me out there which may require a bit more research on her behalf and the first treatment she offers may not always work like in my case but she is a GP not god! I suspect that on at least one of my issues she went away and researched some of the ways in which one of my drugs work at a cellular level in order to help me understand how to counteract a major side effect which shows diligence and commitment to patients rather than just ticking them off one after another. I would highly recommend her to anybody!

Dr Ladhani really takes the time to listen, to ask relevant questions, then diagnose and prescribe accordingly. She is one of the best GP’s I’ve ever seen and I can’t recommend her highly enough. Thank you for your exceptional kindness and reassurance.
