Dr. Kar has an easy manner and makes you feel at ease and comfortable talking to him. He listens to what you say and is patient and interested in how you feel rather than solely relying on ranges of test results. I have confidence in his ability and method and would recommend him to friends and family.

Dr Kar put me at ease straight away, and gave me his full attention, we discussed my medication where he informed me of the pros and cons of the different types of medication available to me, he included my thoughts in the final decision. He also took onboard a further problem without hesitation.

Dr Kar listened to me, asked relevant questions and gave excellent suggestions to get better control. Although my levels at the time were high, I was not made to feel inadequate, but rather, supported in improving them. He offered on-going support and encouraged me to get in contact if I needed additional help before my next appointment. He was professional, efficient and caring. I could not ask for more from my diabetic clinician.

I would say to anyone who finds themselves having to attend Dr Kar's clinic (as I did after major surgery on my pituitary gland) that they should have every confidence in him and his team to give the very best care and advice available within the NHS. I can truthfully say that I have never felt that I was just a number or even "a guinea pig", but treated respectfully and with care and understanding. Dr Kar and his team are so knowledgeable in their field and I know they are at the cutting edge of all new innovations within the medical profession which should be very reassuring to patients old and new. Like other patients in his care I have always had the facility to call the clinic to be guided on any concerns I have and have always found the running of the appointments system very efficient. I particularly feel good about the fact that Dr Kar liaises with colleagues at Southampton General Hospital on a regular basis to discuss results and consider best action for his patients if this is required. I have always found any concerns I might have are dealt with promptly by Dr Kar.

I have been a Diabetic for 22 years and have had issues with control most of that time. My care used to be at QA previously, but some years ago, was moved to my GPs surgery. Although I have had a great relationship with the diabetic nurse at the surgery, it feels more re-assuring to be back with the team at QA again, I really feel as though I'm in the care of a professional team who will try everything to help me back to better control of my diabetes. Thank you.
