I have had Dr Naqvi as my paediatric cardiology consultant for many years, she has been so helpful in helping me and my mum understand my condition and she never made going in for my check-ups feel like a chore. It was a delight to have her as my consultant and I am sad to not have her as my consultant any more as I move onto the adult team. I am very grateful to Dr Naqvi and her team for looking after me so well – Thank you.

We have been very lucky to have Dr Naqvi as my son’s paediatric cardiology consultant, she’s extremely professional, very friendly and easy to talk to. Dr Naqvi takes the time to explain things simply and she’s very supportive, reassuring and encouraging - she gives superb overall patient care. We will genuinely miss her and the team when my son transitions to adult cardiology. Thank you so much for everything Dr Nitha Naqvi.

I took my Daughter to see Dr Naqvi about a potential condition she had after being referred by my GP to see a specialist.
I personally have been receiving private care for 25 years now and the reason why I have decided to give back feedback on this occasion is because the service my Daughter received was nothing short of exemplary.
Dr Naqvi took the time to make sure everyone testing my Daughter was communicated by in person and we were constantly given feedback as to what was happening and if we needed to know any more information. I would go as far as to say that it felt like Dr Naqvi was treating her own Daughter, that's certainly how I felt as a parent!
I can see why Dr Naqvi won such an outstanding accolade for Woman of the year, I hope many more patients get a chance to have the great customer experience we did, even if they are for situations that I would not wish on anyone.

Doctor Naqvi has provided continuity of care for our son following major neonatal surgery at Royal Brompton hospital- she remembers him from the ICU and 3 years later continues to review him at a regional outreach clinics. We are delighted to be able to remain under the umbrella of the Royal Brompton, it provides us with an enormous amount of confidence that he is receiving the very best care.
Happy to answer our questions and requests, We feel she does a good job of balancing the clinical needs of our son with the emotional needs of us as parents. She arranged a cardiac check for our other son with her colleague at our local hospital for our peace of mind. We would have no hesitation in recommending Dr Naqvi.
