Having been Mis-diagnosed and mis-treated for several months and becoming ever more unwell I was fortunate to be given an appointment with Dr. Alison Grimston. I was astonished to be greeted with genuine kindness and asked to explain how I was feeling. I was listened to first and then given an examination and my treatment was changed. I left with instructions to contact her should I need to. A couple of weeks later I truly luckily got to see Dr Alison again when she diagnosed a heart condition rather than the ‘chest infection’ that the other doctors had been insisting I had. She arranged for me to be taken immediately to hospital where Her diagnosis was confirmed. I now have a ‘state of the art’ pacemaker fitted and can honestly say I would not be writing this review if not for the outstanding care I received from this doctor. Furthermore, recently, my respiratory condition worsened again and my regular doctors were a lot less than helpful to put it politely. I called Dr Alison in sheer desperation and was offered a private appointment which I gratefully accepted. Once more I was listened to and diagnosed expertly and given medicine which has proved a turning point in my life once again. I owe an enormous amount to this extremely caring, compassionate and competent doctor and would have no hesitation in recommending her most highly. I have been asked to give constructive criticism to help give even greater care. It’s simply not required. No one can give more than their all.
