I cannot fault the care I received at the Royal London Hospital with Dr Pradeep and his team.

I saw Dr Pradeep at the Royal London. I have seen many doctors for my chest problems (persistent cough) and Dr Pradeep was the first that I felt really listened to my case history and ordered tests accordingly. He is also very open to the possibility that my problem is actually two issues happening at the same time (an ENT issue and a respiratory issue) which I have found many doctors struggle with - he referred me to an ENT colleague for them to look into this. He gave me my test results by phone (texting me when I did not answer which was helpful as I often ignore unknown numbers) and fitted me in between other patients the next day to give me a new prescription. He then did what he said he would do in terms of changing my appointments so that my next one with him will be after my ENT one and he also followed up by text a week later to see how the new medicine was working. Dr Pradeep was also able to look beyond me being overweight to look for other issues that may be causing my persistent cough which again is something many doctors don't do (this is not me failing to acknowledge that weight is an issue in many cases but it is not the only cause of problems and I think it is lazy to always assume that because a person is fat the fatness must be causing the problem). I have been very impressed by all of this so far and hope I see him for my next appointment rather than another member of the team.

Dr Pradeep went above and beyond with my care. Not only did he go out of his way to make the whole process go smoothly, chasing and following up with different stages of my care but, something which I consider incredibly valuable, he also took the time to explain things to me and share information with me so that I understood what was going on and felt involved in the care that was being given to me. This was so important in reducing my overall anxiety about the whole thing. He even took the time to identify and share quite specific further sources for me to read to know more about my situation, and, when I was discharged, also took time to listen patiently to my questions and answer them carefully and explain all and any next steps. The NHS is made up of many incredibly hard-working, caring and thoughtful people but Dr Pradeep stands out as a paragon example.

I was seen by Dr P Rajagopalan twice for bronchiectasis and at both times he showed professionalism. He asked me questions & listened before explaining my problems and what investigations/treatments were needed for my ? lung disease. I felt Dr Rajagopalan was a good, kind & listening doctor who demonstrated empathy and great knowledge to prescribe precise investigations in confirming my bronchiectasis diagnosis and treating it accordingly, to stabilise & improve my health Because of the above, I have great confidence in Dr Rajagopalan's thorough care and treatment and was happy to be seen him.....a proficient, kind and approachable doctor. Thank you, Dr Rajagopalan for your help and may you continue to serve/treat other patients as well as you did me
