During your first consultation, Mr Haque will take a detailed history of your symptoms, review any previous tests or scans, and discuss your concerns in depth. He will perform a focused examination and explain possible causes of your symptoms in a clear and understandable way. If further investigations are needed—such as scans, blood tests, or endoscopy—these will be arranged. You will also have the opportunity to ask questions and discuss potential treatment options.

It is helpful to bring any relevant information you have, including:
- Previous clinic letters or medical records
