Dr Samreen Channa

Written by a patient at University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust

Dr Channa takes every case very seriously and listens carefully to the patient's needs and concerns. She is good at discussing issues, and providing support. She makes very useful recommendations to the University which will help to make life better. Sometimes this needs to be put into relation with the real world of teaching, but she is very understandable and supportive, adjusting the recommendations accordingly. Occupational Health is central to the wellbeing of university staff if in need, and hopefully the university will keep this service going and respond to it.

I felt very vulnerable when I went to see Dr. Channa, having been through some very difficult, life-changing experiences. I was trying to adjust to 'a new normal' and find an equilibrium in my life. Dr. Channa helped me in many ways, not least by acknowledging my concerns, by listening and looking for potential solutions together. She arranged for a gradual, phased return to work and supported me through this period as I sought to re-build strength and confidence. I felt I could be honest with her and that she really understood the issues and wanted to help me to find a way forward. Dr. Channa is very professional, effective, sensitive and supportive. I'm very grateful to her and would highly recommend her.

Importantly I felt listened to and believed that the pain I was in was real. Sympathetically given advise and suggestions of ways in which to help myself along with my own GP. I was consulted if I wanted to see documentation before it was sent to my manager. Follow up appointments were appropriately spaced out with the offer of ringing to speak to Dr Samreen Channa should I need to.
