Dr Afroze Abbas

Written by a NHS patient at St James's University Hospital

Dr Abbas is a very kind doctor. He is always very prompt for appointments. He is excellent when explaining things and makes sure I understand everything. He takes extra time when needed to address my concerns and is very knowledgeable. He has helped me enormously and I am very grateful for his care.

Dr Abbas is one of the best doctors I have had the pleasure of being treated by. Not only is he really informative/knowledgable but he explains things really simply and breaks it down. He has outstanding knowledge and if he doesn’t know about something he’ll find out about it! He is caring and will go above and beyond to get you through help you need. His communication is fantastic too- he always gets back to you straight away and does everything he can to help. Absolutely brilliant- I wish all doctors did what he does.

In the last few years I unfortunately have had contact with several departments and doctors, and I must say that Dr Abbas stands out as the one who treats me as though I do know what I'm talking about! He is one of the few,these days, who has really good 'people skills', which means a lot when you are dealing with things and attending appointments on your own. He has made sure that I haven't missed any appointments, even though I was quite ill and in hospital at one point, he made sure that I caught up with them when I was well enough. Keep up the good work!

I have been treated by Dr Abbas for several years now. Dr Abbas is extremely knowledgeable, considerate and compassionate. He is proactive in his care, listens to me as an individual and also takes my views into consideration. Dr Abbas responds to emails quickly and is also easy to follow during a telephone consultation. I have been with Leeds Endocrine services for approximately 20 years and I cannot fault their care and support. As with all services the lack of funding is noticeable when I attend clinic but, to me, this has not detracted to my level of care from Dr Abbas. The uses of technology for communication may be available to everyone but has been a positive for me during Covid.
