Cannot thank Dr Adrian Barnardo enough. From a swift diagnosis to a plan put in place within hours, from clear and easily understood explanation of my issues along with what can only be described as pure passion in this field. I have never felt in safer hands than with this expert and the team of specialists and professional nurses that have got me on the mend and put in place treatment plan.
I would thoroughly recommend Dr Adrian Barnardo, thank you so very much. My future seems so much brighter within a week of meeting you.
Thank you Dr. Barnardo for your professionalism and kindness when i was under your care. My problems have been identified and i have a treatment plan going foward as well. The understanding and urgency i received was excellent.
Really appreciated the clear explanations and process that was offered to investigate my Hiatus Hernia issues.
Would 100% recommend Dr Barnardo.
I have just seen Adrian Barnardo as he was reccomended by my Functional Gut Doctor .
Wow since 2016 since my symptoms started I feel like a way to resolve my issues.
He listened to me and I think we can plan a way forward with confidance .
Back in a month .
Highly reccomend
I was seen at Maidstone Hospital but no box for that
In addition to my previous review, I would also like to add that Dr Barnardo NEVER makes you feel stupid if you don't understand something. He will patiently explain over and over if necessary. We have come across other doctors who make you feel like an idiot school child if you don't understand something immediately and treat you as such. There is no such question as a silly question as far as he's concerned. Many doctors forget how overwhelming it can be to not only be ill but also having to see a doctor/s, get bad news and then face ongoing problems, pain and stressful treatments.
Nothing is too much trouble for Dr Barnardo :-)
