Super-efficient staff. Listened to my problems in detail and gave good advice with explained reasons, including after care advice. I finished in half an hour and left five minutes after my appointment time. NHS at it's best!

I saw Dr Boon Lim for the first time at the Hammersmith Hospital on 16 August 2017 to discuss vasovagal syncope. The appointment was after 18 months of tests carried out by specialists at UCL and Imperial College to determine the cause of fainting episodes caused by swallowing. Dr Lim was excellent. He knew exactly what the problem was and how it should be addressed. He communicated excellently and enthusiastically and I came away feeling not only reassured but also with a programme of action that makes total sense. I am extremely grateful that I was referred to Dr Lim by a cardiologist ( Dr Petraco Da Cunha) at St Charles Community Clinic 6.

Dr Boon Lim has taken me through a difficult journey of atrial fibrillation, and explained the ablation procedure carefully and thoroughly! He has an excellent bedside manner and I felt entirely comfortable throughout the consultation experience, to having the ablation procedure, which I recovered rapidly from. No more AF 6 months after the ablation! I cant thank you enough Dr Lim, and wish I had come to you sooner.

Dr Phang Boon Lim gave me great confidence in his diagnosis of my condition, without any dithering. He explained the procedure of having a pacemaker, and put me at ease that it would be very straight forward, reassuring me that everything is going to be fine. He is the type of specialist who makes one feel that one is in good hands. I have 100% trust in this doctor. I am very grateful that he managed to fit me in at short notice. He has a very pleasant, down to earth approach, making one feel relaxed.
