Dr Azhar Janmohamed

Dr Azhar sees his patients himself rather than passing them between colleagues. Good general practice depends on knowing someone over time: their history, their circumstances and what matters to them, not only the symptom in front of him on the day.

Consultations are unhurried. He takes a full history, examines carefully where that is relevant, and explains his thinking plainly, so you understand what is happening and what the sensible next step is.

Dr Azhar studied medicine at Imperial College London, where he was awarded a Distinction in Medical Specialties, and holds MBBS and BSc degrees. He went on to train as a general practitioner in the United Kingdom and holds MRCGP, the membership examination of the Royal College of General Practitioners.

He has more than a decade of clinical experience across acute medicine, paediatrics, emergency medicine, care of older people, obstetrics and gynaecology, psychiatry, dermatology and general surgery. That breadth shapes the way he assesses a problem in general practice and decides when a specialist opinion genuinely adds something.

Whether the concern is a new symptom, an illness that has not settled, or a routine review, the approach is the same: enough time to explain what is going on, a clear plan, and a doctor who remembers the conversation next time.

Where tests or investigations are useful, these are arranged as part of the consultation. Where a prescription is clinically appropriate following assessment, it is issued for you to collect from a pharmacy of your choice.

You deal with Dr Azhar directly and see the same doctor each time, and he responds himself when a concern is urgent. Where he is away, he tells you and helps you arrange suitable alternative care.

When specialist opinion or hospital investigation is needed, he arranges the referral, and helps bring the results and letters that follow back into one coherent picture, rather than leaving you to piece them together yourself.
