I have nothing but positive things to say about my visits with Dr Hussain. I can instantly tell when a consultant is genuinely interested in my very complex history. And after decades of chronic health challenges I believe I now have some genuine insight to what is likely to have been the problem all along. I wish we had crossed paths a long time ago. Thank you
