Dr Anandan has a wonderful sense of humour and is kindness personified. I think that some patients are taken aback by his approach, but it does add a human side to him. On the few occasions that I have presented with more serious symptoms he has treated me with sensitivity and kindness and has made me feel justified and cared for. I am always involved in decisions about my treatment and Dr Anandan is very good at explaining what various test results imply. Dr Anandan is very thorough; his appointments are every fifteen minutes rather than the usual ten. This gives the patient and him time to gather as much information as possible and to explore treatments. I always feel listened to. I appreciate that since the Covid pandemic many people have found it difficult to get face to face appointments with anyone at the GP practices, but I have always managed to get a timely appointment by going through the eConsult system. As the lead GP in this small Practice, Dr Anandan has ensured that he has a very approachable team working to give their patients the best care possible.
