What patients say on Google
“Very helpful, met with Dr Mehra. Very helpful and quick to sort issue”
“I can say with confidence that Dr Lakshmi Kumar is the best GP I have ever been to. I went into the appointment worried that my concerns might be dismissed, as has often happened with both NHS and private GPs in the past. Instead, she treated me like a human being from the very first minute, not a time slot. She listened carefully, understood the full picture of what I was going through, and never made me feel rushed. She explained all the possible treatment options, talked me through potential side effects in a clear and reassuring way, and worked with me to create a plan that genuinely made sense. Apart from being incredibly competent, what impressed also was how attentive and kind she was. She gave me space to ask questions and arranged proper follow-up and made sure I wouldn’t be left on my own after the appointment. It was the first time in a long time that I felt truly seen, understood, and helped by a GP. I am very grateful for her care and would recommend Dr Kumar wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a doctor who is compassionate, thorough, and truly dedicated to her patients’ wellbeing beyond the consultation itself.”

She was also very sweet and kind, and you can tell she genuinely cares about helping her patients. She doesn't rush you or make you feel like you are just another patient, which is often the case with many other GPs. I highly recommend seeing her!”
