Dr Mittal offers good availability and is happy to see patients with any blood disorder. He will be able to initiate the appropriate investigations and guide his patient in the right direction. Those wanting to see him are advised that he always requires a referral from the GP prior to seeing patients in the clinic. All referrals are triaged by Dr Mittal himself to ensure that he can help and provide the required treatment. He is also very happy to see patients for a second opinion.

He sees patients from across Northamptonshire, including Northampton, Kettering, Milton Keynes and Bedford. He has even had bookings from people living as far as Warwick. He can speak multiple languages fluently including English, Marwari, Hindi, Nepali, Bengali, and Urdu. And he has basic-level skills in speaking Gujarati and Punjabi.
If you book in to see Dr Mittal, you will benefit from his person-centred approach to care. He takes great pride in providing the best possible experience for his patients, ensuring they get seen quickly and are given the most appropriate treatment, in the most appropriate way. His patient feedback is a testament to the level of service his patients receive.
Good Doctor: “[He is] the best if it wasn’t for him I would have died with his quick choices so lovely and friendly”
Outside of his Consultancy work and clinical commitments, Dr Mittal likes to keep fit, and he is a hugely family-orientated man, who likes to spend his weekends out and about with his children.
