Very happy with my consultation, Dr Hull understood my condition immediately and quickly organised the relevant tests. The new inhaler he prescribed has completely changed my asthma symptoms. All good

Very kind and professional. He explained everything so thoroughly. I’m so grateful as I’ve had a cough for so many years and within a few months of seeing Dr Hull my symptoms are so greatly improved.

It has been a few years since I first met with Professor Hull, he was my final destination on so often very disappointing route in my 23-year-long chronic cough. Professor Hull met me with great understanding and willingness to help me in any way he could to make my cough bearable as well as offering me to take part in medical trials run by Royal Brompton Hospital, this has led to a new medicine, gefapixant that for me is a God's gift. I want to compliment Professor Hull and all of his team that is so professionally great.

Prof Hull has been very diligent in treating my chronic cough. He is friendly, approachable and thorough. I have received great professional care and guidance in trying to find solutions to improve the issue; including immediate notification of the availability in the UK of the new drug Gefapixant and follow through in trying this medication. The ability to see him via video link is extremely helpful. I have no hesitation in recommending him. Thanks too, to his PA Gareth who provides efficient, kindly support. Thank you!

Dr Hull was extremely to the point (in a good way) and was able to explain things in a way I was able to easily understand. I felt completely at ease through the process and was confident I would get to a resolution, which I did.

Excellent respiratory physician who I have been referring patients to that have problems with shortness of breath, breathing difficulties during exercise and 'long covid'. He can provide a 'cardiopulmonary exercise' (CPET) test, which can determine how the heart and lungs respond to exercise.
