Professor Branley was incredibly warm, disarming and charming. He eased me into the consultation, sparing no effort to explain, in detail, every potential process. He was fantastic!

I immediately felt at ease as I started to talk to Dr. Branley. You can tell he takes the concerns of his patient to heart. He was very structured and thorough in understanding my health history by asking questions. I had sent him previous health history/test, but he purposely didn't review them so it doesn't taint his investigation, which I appreciated. Professor Branley is great should you be looking for someone that is knowledgeable, thorough and thoughtful.
Thanks for your kind review. You're right - I prefer to look at previous data after I have spoken with you so as to review everything with a fresh pair of eyes.

I had a wonderful consultation with Professor Howard Branley covering an 8 year chronic health condition. He listened attentively, asked the right questions at exactly the right time & was extremely positive in helping me organise testing to try to identify my issues. He was able to look up results to tests I'd recently had done by other doctors all within the HCA database, analysing results from a different perspective. When we finished our call, I felt positive, listened to & happy that we had a plan. Howard came highly recommended by some of the best doctors in London & after just one consultation, I can clearly see why he is held in such high esteem.
Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad that you're feeling more positive about your respiratory health and look forward to helping you more.

Dr Branley was polite and professional, yet felt like an old friend. He did not rush and made sure everything was crystal clear. I left our appointment feeling well informed. I would use Dr Branley again and recommend him to others especially those working on their CAA medical.
Thank you and glad thatI was able to help you through your aviation medical speedily.
