Dr Alan Hakim 2020-11-24 Person 5 5 0

I have had my condition my entire life, it is hereditary and came from my mum who suffers as I do. It is a chronic pain condition which also has the effect of fatigue and I have spend hours and hours in various Dr's and specialists offices with no diagnosis or proper care plan. Dr Hakim spent about an hour and a half with me and changed my life for the better. I have a detailed care plan and medication that treats my condition such that my pain is more reduced than it has ever been. But more importantly I felt listened to. Dr Hakim asked the right questions and listened to my answers, seems so basic but that is what hasn't been happening with a strained NHS, where Dr's can't talk to you for more than 7 minutes. I convinced my mum that she aught to see the Dr and it has changed her life similarly, she has better control of her condition, better medication and a diagnosis she never had before.
