Written by a private patient

Richard Scawn saw me as an emergency patient at St John's & St Elizabeth's hospital in St Johns Wood. I presented with visual defects. Mr Scawn undertook a number of ophthalmology investigations and could have at that moment on finding that my eyes were not damaged sent me home to see if the symptoms got better. However, due to his tenacious, professional and kind approach he sent me for an immediate MRI which showed that I had had a stroke. There were a number of other concerning symptoms that he found and he took it upon himself to take full responsibility for all levels of my care outside of his own field as well as within his own filed and his intervention probably saved my life. Richard is in my view the best doctor I have ever had the privilidge to meet. I would just like to mention that his PA Anna was also incredible in the way she constantly checked up on me and pushed other specialists to check up on me as a matter of urgency and truly cared about me as a person.
