Great doctor! I brought in my 70yo mother (I attended with her and translated as English not her first-language) for a Stress Echo, and immediately he and his assistant were welcoming, friendly and informative. I was really impressed with the facilities and set-up for the Stress Echo - this was the only place I could find in London which offered the option of a Bike Stress-Echo (in addition to the usual Treadmill option) - which was really important for my mother, because due to her arthritis it made the Treadmill option feel too difficult for her to do at high-intensity. He and his assistant made my mother feel comfortable throughout, and were very encouraging to her during the exercise-testing itself. It's an excellent service which I would recommend for anyone, especially as NHS cardiology waiting-times can be very long, and also because Stress Echo's are not usually available for NHS GPs to refer to at local community-hospitals (they can only be done via referral to larger NHS acute-hospitals - which usually means long wait-times). The fact that this test is non-invasive means that the patient can self-refer immediately (as we did) - making it a very accessible and valuable resource. I will definitely be recommending friends and family to have any of Dr. Kosta's tests done to monitor their heart health, especially as most (if not all) tests are non-invasive in nature (meaning not having to worry about cumulative radiation-exposure) and yet provide invaluable information on the important matter of heart-health.
