Dr Uprichard has been excellent throughout all my appointments with him. I have thalassemia and iron deficiency and he has thoroughly monitored and carefully managed my iron levels throughout my pregnancy. Always joyful and funny, it was great knowing that there was a doctor I could trust throughout the challenging journey of pregnancy. Thank you!

The Doctor was very Rude and intimidating, didn’t listen to me. Because i was 10 minutes late from my appointment so he punished me by 2 hours wait. I was shocked the way a Doctor behaved by laughing at me and telling me if i want to sit on his chair (“maybe he meant to say : be a Doctor for your self”) while i came all to get some medical advice.

I had a Zoom consultation to suit me as I would have found it difficult to attend the hospital. Dr Uprichard was extremely thorough and approachable. He spent as long as necessary to thoroughly explore and discuss my problem. At no time did I feel rushed. The further investigations were arranged immediately at the most convenient location and the follow up appointment set. All in all it was a very pleasant experience with an obviously knowledgeable colleague and I would have no reservations in recommending him.
