Mr Lim found the time to squeeze an appointment in the see me following a surgery that I had the previous week. To be clear, my recent surgery was not related to ENT. Following my surgery, I sustained some problems with my throat which I did not have before. Mr Lim was very professional throughout my appointment. He listened to me to and talked to me about my throat so that I understood exactly what had happened to it and what he could do to help me. Mr Lim examined my throat thoroughly and could see the problem that I waS experiencing. After examination, we returned to his consultation room and he explained again what he saw and gave a plan going forward. I asked plenty of questions, all of which Mr Lim answered fully to be best of his ability. We discussed ‘what if’ things didn’t improve and again, Mr Lim explained what could happen next if things didn’t improve. Following a course of medication, my symptoms have improved which is what Mr Lim had hoped and I have no further need to see Mr Lim again However I would not hesitate to see Mr Lim again if I had to see another ENT specialist. Very professional and very nice man.

I'm very happy with the treatment. Apparently my ear is very difficult to clean as I have two cavities after two serious operations in the past. I was struggling with infections for the last few years and NHS wasn't doing their job properly with regards to cleaning both cavities. After dr Lim removed some crust that NHS left there my ear is still fine after 6 months. Also I had a lot of doctors trying to clean my ear in my local hospital and its always painful and I don't always feel confident about my safety when they do it but dr Lim is so smooth and confidential that he is another level. Thank you.

I've had the pleasure to meet Mr Lim few days ago. My daughter had a very bad ear infection and we went to see him for a follow up check. Was late in the evening however Mr Lim went above and beyond to make sure that he checked every detail. He was very professional and knowledgeable. He also took the time to explain us every aspect of the infection and to reassure us that she is fully recovered. Mr Lim has all my trust. I highly recommend him. Very friendly, professional, and thorough.
