My husband, myself and our son found Dr Nawaz to be more than we had expected. He demonstrated that he was fully knowledgeable regarding learning and social issues with children. He listened very carefully and was fully empathetic, both with us as parents and with our son. He was cautious not to jump to any conclusions and used his experience to explain what the options might be. He was the first person we had met, during the long process of obtaining a diagnosis for our son, that we felt we could trust, that was completely on our side and was balanced and intelligent enough to make us feel confident he knew what he was doing. Following diagnosis he explained the outcome in a very sensitive manner, answering plenty of questions and wording answers in an inclusive and positive manner. He understood our need not to disclose the diagnosis to our son at this point and spoke to him in a really warm, practical and positive manner to discuss what aspects our son found difficult or easy. Dr Nawaz was reassuring to us and provided us with information and offered a final follow up appointment. He more than exceeded our expectations, demonstrated excellent active listening skills, provided learned answers and was warm and positive. We were very reassured and happy in what could have been a very uncomfortable process.

Prior to Dr Nawaz we had experience of other paediatricians. In comparison, Dr Nawaz was most knowledgeable, empathetic and he was the first professional we had complete confidence in. He is fantastic with our son and takes time to speak with him and get his view on his care, but he also listens to us. We feel it is team work between us and we wouldn't change him for the world!

Dr Nawaz is very kind and put the children in confidence. He listens carefully and knows the patient file, which is really helpful as you feel he takes care of your child. He explains his diagnosis and take the right time to discuss your child's health. He is very patient and caring.

We have only seen Dr Nawaz once, however, with the experience we had, I cannot recommend him highly enough. He listened very carefully, asked a lot, paid attention to every detail, approached the child in a most gentle, pleasent and friendly way (and I don't mean the 'pretend' friendliness or the fake kind smile that most other doctors would show to children) so that my children felt he was genuinely a friend of theirs. Most importantly, he undertook a very thorough physical examination, his judgment was very sound and he explained thoroughly his findings, what he was thinking and why, and what his plan is and why. He made lots of effort to keep the siblings accompanying the patient entertained and not bored, and he even gave them a tablet to watch a movie on so the can be entertained and quiet. I was so grateful for Dr Nawaz 's service and professionalism,

Dr Nawaz was very thorough, and gave a lot of valid and constructive information to help. His primary concern was making sure our child got the best support to address any needs he may have, and will continue to support us throughout the process. Dr Nawaz also showed a high level of care.
