Dr Chinegwundoh was absolutely amazing- before seeing him, I'd had two years of struggling with very nasty post-covid symptoms, not helped by a chest infection last July. No one had been able to get to the bottom of the problems after several different appointments and months of waiting. I had an initial consultation and he was able to refer me for all the right tests and scans, and diagnose a breathing pattern disorder within two months and a few follow up appointments. John's bedside manner is excellent- he was veey understanding of the emotional distress that this has caused because it's been going on so long. He listened very patiently to all my symptoms was practical and supportive. It finally feels like there's a light at the end of the very long tunnel I've been in and I'm indescribaly grateful to him for all his help in finding a diagnosis and treatment.

Very polite always make me feel comfortable and helpful.

The care and concern I was given by Dr Chinegwundoh was above and beyond - unlike any other medical experience I have had. From my first interaction with him I knew I was in the right hands - his knowledge of my condition was such a relief. He took an incredible amount of time to check on me and my recovery, even over the Christmas period, which I was so grateful for during a period of stress and worry.

I have been suffering with Asthma and allergies all my life and most recently my condition has worsened resulting in hospitalisation. I found Dr John when researching respiratory specialists, and I’m so glad I did. Within a week I felt better than I have ever felt. The medication and advice that Dr John provided me with has transformed my life and I actually forget that I even have asthma these days. Thank you Dr John, you’re amazing!

I first saw Dr Chinegwundoh after I had come out of hospital having been admitted with severe Covid pneumonia and blood clots. He very clearly explained the situation and set out a treatment plan. Over the coming weeks, he guided me on the journey with a calm reassurance that really helped to give me clarity and confidence in the treatment I was undergoing. The results were better than I could have hoped for and because of his intervention there has been no lasting damage to my lungs. Throughout the process, Dr Chinegwundoh has been totally professional and, importantly, he has shown a kindness and empathy that made a huge difference in giving me a positive attitude to my recovery. I could not recommend him highly enough.
