Patient testimonials

My experience during a COVID-19 vaccine clinical trial with Panthera has been superb. I have never participated in a clinical trial before, so was quite apprehensive, but the staff and medical team at Panthera explained everything thoroughly to me and I felt at ease. The trial itself was easy to participate in and I felt comfortable throughout. I would definitely participate in another clinical trial at Panthera if I was eligible.

Excellent study into cardovascular problems excellent clinical facilities and doctors and nurses. patient waiting area has free coffee machine which offers everything from americano, hot chocolate, hot milk, bottled water and assorted biscuits. Clinics have restroom facility and parking. With clinics located in Preston, Rochdale and several other places in the midlands and elsewhere.

Visited the Rochdale Clinic to assess my suitability to join the Cardiovascular study. Unfortunately on this occasion I didn't meet the eligibility crieria. However, the advice and assistance I received whilst I was there was was fantastic and so I decided to complete this review. If you're thinking of volunteering for any clinical trials then you can't go far wrong than volunteering with Panthera.
