I was recently referred to Dr. Akhtar following some severe knee pain. Throughout our first appointment, Kash took the time at the start to fully understand my symptoms and where I had potentially incurred the injury. He made me feel at ease and comfortable during the consultation and asked appropriate questions to efficiently understand my injury. He very quickly built up an excellent rapport with me and I was very comfortable explaining my symptoms. Despite having very common symptoms for a relatively minor knee injury, Kash took the time to engage in a full examination and identified the injury quickly and accurately. I was still referred for a full knee scan, which was followed up by an excellent check up. No operation was required, and I was referred for extensive physio. Throughout the follow up appointment, Kash again maintained a very high level of care and understanding and took the time go through my scans in detail to explain why my symptoms were occurring and how best to relieve them. Overall, I was thoroughly pleased to have been referred to Dr. Akhtar and could not have asked for a better consultant. I felt at ease and comfortable knowing I was in the hands of clearly a very knowledgeable doctor. I never felt rushed throughout my appointments and would recommend Dr. Akhtar to anyone who (unfortunately!) needs to see him. Thanks again
