Gave me loads of time to ask any other questions or concerns I might have and really managed my expectations with regards the MRI. Friendly, professional - exactly what you could want from a doctor.

Excellent in his care. Listened to.what I had to say and was very considerate.

Time was a factor as the doctor looked at watch during our less than 20 min incontrovertible and any arguments related to my condition and history was excluded as nonevident. Great patience on its side to some extent, in listening my concerns. All been excluded as link between autism and nerve sensibility. Feels like a great neurologist should be a great psychaiatrist also as a leading McGilchrist in the field of unified research. Nothing bad about the person and its civilised ways although it has been watching its clock and conducted me personally towards department doors after no more than 20-30 min consult.

Professor James Teo thoroughly examined and listened to all I had to say about my symptoms and personal circumstances. He also explained all in great detail when reviewing my MRI scan and initial consultation.

Appalling bedside manner and incorrect prognosis with lack of further treatment options. Lack of listening to my needs almost resulted in career ending lack of treatment. Avoid at all costs and see someone who understands the needs of the patient and recovery options that other therapies, such as physio, can bring.
