Reviews
Not only is Professor Daubeney a fantastic and compassionate cardiologist but he is supported by the best practise secretary we’ve ever come across. Sophie is outstanding and does magic with appointments and follow-up!
We have had a very positive experience with both Professor Daubeney and his wonderful Practice Manager Sophie. Sophie has to be the most friendly, efficient and well organised manager ever, and she is an absolute delight to deal with.
Professor Daubeney has been kind, calm and informative and we have felt very well looked after by both throughout the process. Many thanks!
Excellent manner with patient and mother. Well chosen words in relation to eating disorder that encouraged our daughter to take action to recover. Useful written reports in follow up, with detail explain the medical situation and what was needed for recovery. Kind, patient and professional.
He has been very thorough in his investigations. He listened to symptoms and was also empathetic to the impact on everyday life. He was approachable and knowledgeable.
I also have to say Sophie O’Hehir, his practice manager has been outstanding. She has been our main point of contact and she has been very efficient, helpful, kind, friendly, informative. Over the years I have dealt with many practice managers / PA’s and Sophie is easily one of the best and nicest ones I have dealt with. She has been really great - I can’t praise her highly enough. Thank you Sophie.
I am the patients mother.
The care and information so far received for my child has been great.
