Reviews
My visit to Dr Somalanka at Woking Community Hospital was very good and I felt a valued as a patient.
He saw me at exactly my appointment time and had all my information and test results ready to share with me.
The meeting was unhurried which gave me, as a senior, time to process what I was being told and allowed time for me to ask questions and understand the implications of my condition and the best way I could manage it.
All in all, a very successful consultation.
Dr Somalanka is a very gentle man and very caring. I would not hesitate in recommending him to anyone. I have always been seen on time when I have had an appointment with him.
I was seen at Woking Community Hospital
Dr Subash Somalanka is thorough and takes the time to explain why one was referred to him and explains symptoms. He breaks down those big medical terms in a way that is easy to understand. He also gave me a chance to ask questions. He then explained next steps so that one knows what to expect. Dr's appointments are scary as one never knows what the diagnosis will be but Dr Subash helped me relax and I was suddenly not so anxious. I would definitely recommend him to other patients, family and friends. Dr Subash made me feel I was scared for as a patient. Thank you Dr for caring.
Thank you for being a proactive, cheerful and supportive doctor.
It is with utmost pleasure and gratitude to share my views and experience of health care provided by Dr Somalanka to my dearest sister who suffers from Chronic Kidney Disease.
Dr Somalanka’s approach overall was constantly professional. At a time when when my sister has been admitted acutely unwell, both my sister and I extremely anxious, he has demonstrated his expertise in the field, remained incredibly humble, has been open to us, explained complications/ investigations treatment and outcomes in a timely, caring and empathetic manner taking the lead yet in liaison and as part of a multidisciplinary healthcare team.
In Dr Somalanka care my sister and I have experienced respect, empathy and compassion, we felt valued and listened to, have no doubt it also greatly contributed to the remarkable improvement to my sisters condition. We are truly grateful for his care, I can think of anything negative at present.
Super excellent doctor, Huge Thank You.
Thank you very much for the kind words.
