I have been under the care of Dr Grant since 2008. He is very professional with a friendly direct approach. If a problem has arisen during this time he always explains the situation and how to overcome it and has always included me in any resulting treatment. When I have had a question always takes time to answer and explain his reasoning. During my visits he always greets you personally and gives you all his attention. Sometimes a visit to a hospital can be an intimidating experience but Dr Grant puts you at your ease straight away. I would thoroughly recommend Dr Grant to any future patient and only wish all consultants were like him.

It's very hard to fill in the questions above as I have only met the Dr once so my opinions are very guarded , however opinions change once treatment gets under way and all tests are done ! I went over 2 weeks ago to see Dr Grant and had bloods taken and I was told I need this , that and the other but I've had nothing through as yet . I have given up drinking and am getting anxious but that sometimes isn't taken into account . Dr Grant scared me with what he said , which I needed to kick start my health change but it's ok scaring somebody but leaving them without contact isn't a good thing. So in answer do I trust Dr Grant ? Not yet and would I recommend this Dr ? Not yet no

Many thanks for your feedback. I am glad that you felt that I listened to you and I do agree that trust needs to be built over time. I hope this will be the case with you and that in time you will feel able to recommend me more highly. If you feel that you need any further information or want to talk to me before your next visit please contact me on allister.j.grant@uhl-tr.nhs.uk or please contact my secretary at Leicester Royal Infirmary via the switchboard.

Ten years ago I received a liver transplant at Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham. Since then Dr Grant has shared my out patient care at a local level. I have always had complete trust in him. He always gives me chance to raise any concerns and deals with them. He explains the medication and any test results. Recently he has agreed to a shared care arrangement with my GP so that I can obtain my anti-rejection medication from my GP instead of from the hospital. He is always friendly and approachable. I would recommend him without reservation.

Having been referred to this dr by another, this dr was superb, he was very professional, and listened and explained to me, however his clinics, and clincial staff let me down.
