I saw Dr Boon Lim at the end of 2020 on the recommendation of another cardiologist, as I needed a pacemaker and my first cardiologist suggested that Dr Boon Lim was the absolute best in class. I can honestly say I felt looked after and listened to every step of the way during my treatment. I was also incredibly impressed at Dr Boon Lim’s holistic approach to my healthcare, which has resulted in me making some fundamental changes to my lifestyle and having further conversations with an endocrinologist. I would have no hesitation in recommending Dr Boon Lim for any cardiology issues.

I’m a 69 year old man. I have had Atrial Flutter for a few years and it has increasingly been affecting me, and how I felt with exercise. Some shortness of breath and anxiousness associated with the arrhythmia. I was lucky enough to have Dr Lim and his team give me an ablation. Professional painless and wow, I now feel great. Dr Lim really knows what he is doing. Thanks to all

I have suffered with what was termed as anxiety and a fast heart rate for years. I have seen countless cardiologists before Dr Boon Lim but no one really got to the bottom of it. Dr Boon Lim quickly ascertained that I was likely suffering with a fast heart and anxiety because of blood pooling in my legs and the resulting activation of my nervous system. He explained everything very carefully to me and gave me specific advice to help mitigate the effects. Dr Boon Lim is a very caring and supportive Dr and since receiving his reassurance and putting into practice his advice, I have felt so much better. Dr Lim is extremely knowledgeable and uses very up to date testing methods, such as the zip patch 14 day heart monitor. This allowed Dr Lim to confirm that I did not have any other heart rhythm disturbance. I really can not recommend him highly enough and my experience has been life changing.

Wow! Doctor Lim, What an amazing Doctor and what an amazing human being. After my Cardiac arrest in November 2019, the prospect of getting an ICD Installed was very daunting for me. With other health issues. and a very Anxious person by nature, I am very weak facing these things, and get extremely stressed. Doctor Lim, after speaking to me very soon realised what sort of person I am and absolutely went out of his way , spending a great deal of time talking to me, not only about the Medical side of an ICD and how it all works, but so patiently and passionately with great empathy converted me into a confident, now knowledgeble patient who with great courage accepted and then got my ICD Installed. I am 65 years old and have never ever , met a Doctor who was not just a doctor with great experience and know how , but had the incredible skills to give me his precious time and expert advise . My wife who was listening to our conversation , is so so impressed that , she had tears in her eyes, as before Doctor Lim spoke to me , I was stressing her out, with my Anxieties, and Doctor Lim fixed that. Dear Doctor Lim, I and my family thankyou very very much and are very grateful. Look forward to see you or one of your team , in clinic, or phone consultation, if possible for my Post ICD Installation follow up clinic on Wednesday 1 July 2020, around 15.30. best wishes and best regards Mr Bharat sharma CC227916
