Absolutely bad manner in treating and talking to the patient. I been refused treatment due to my alcohol issues i had I’m past. Consultant wrote on letter saying I’m drinking 4 to 5 cans of strong beers daily and therefore my treatment should be at NHS Hospital.

Really good doctor. However, we had to go through a procedure and before we went through with it, I asked how much it would cost. He informed me it would be another £91, which was send on the invoice and paid the next day. For my surprise, the hospital also charged me another £97

I would highly recommend Dr Peravali 110%. He has been a life saver for me! I saw Dr Peravali privately and was seen within just a few weeks. He carried out a procedure there and then at my appointment and a few weeks later I had noticed my symptoms had massively improved.
