My son was seen as a private patient after waiting many months on the nhs and still no appointment to explore what we thought was an allergy. I took him to Dr Sangur at Thornbury and despite some confusion at reception when it turned out he shouldn't have been given an appointment ad he is under 18, we were quickly seen. The hospital arranged for a paediatric nurse to be present so that this was possible. Dr Sangur listened to us and his explanations were comprehensive, easy for my son to understand and backed up by on screen photos. We were reassured by the diagnosis and suggested course of action. The review was written and emailed very promptly.

I was very apprehensive about attending this appointment as I felt like I was a little stuck and would never get help for my urticaria. This experience was amazing Dr. Sargur made me feel extremely comfortable, went though all medical history, really took his time to listen to me. I would absolutely recommend him and would happily attend another appointment with him if I need to. Will be forever grateful for his time.

I would recommend this doctor. I felt he listened to me to understand the issues & could offer good advice in respect of medication & further tests.

As a patient with Long Covid I have got used to healthcare professionals not listening to me, and dismissing any ideas I may have about my condition. I am a doctor myself but the paternalism and arrogance I have encountered so far has been astonishing. I have to say that my experience with Dr Sargur was completely different. He was patient and he listened. He took my thoughts on board, but at the same time respectfully corrected me where he felt I was going down the wrong route in my own thinking. He clearly has tremendous knowledge of his speciality, and was able to explain in easily understandable language what he felt about the complex nature of my condition. He has arranged investigations and follow up and I look forward to them. Would recommend, especially to those with allergic/atopic type problems in the context of Long Covid.
