Reviews
Great doctor and really helpful. Even wrote a medical report for the Family Court at no charge. Got me on medication which has helped me greatly. Would definitely recommend.
Dr Kar works incredibly hard for his patients both nationally and locally. Making great strides in changing the attitudes of CCG’s and the DVLA
He was good at listening and gave constructive advice. His whole attitude was a help to understand the problem.
Dr Kar is dealing with my pituitary problems, he shows care in all he has done for me,
his attitude has always been interest at all times in explaining the medical condition,
to ensure that I understood it fully.
Dr Kar is a first class member of a wonderful team of people at QA hospital who I have found cannot do enough for the patients.
As a physician I cannot fault him. He has certainly dealt with my pituitary problem in a totally satisfactory way. What in particular distinguishes him from so many other doctors is twofold: his willingness to go the extra mile to deal with issues that are beyond the line of duty; and his extraordinary willingness to communicate and organise swiftly and effectively even when on leave. A relentless drive to achieve.
