Writing in defence of consultant's reputation

I read in disbelief the claim by a couple that a consultant, Massimo Abela, refused to treat a patient after he was told the lady used to visit a Chinese masseuse.

I have been a patient of Dr Abela for some time now and am proud to say that he has been treating me and members of my family successfully for quite some time.

I am thankful of his services and his very assertive diagnosis and treatment. Dr Abela does believe in alternative medicine, contrary to what the people in their judicial protest seem to be suggesting, as long as the service being offered is legitimate and approved by the medical authorities.

Dr Abela has a very outgoing personality, he is full of life, fun loving and in my opinion is anything but arrogant. I still cannot believe how anyone can label him so. I also know of cases where he did not accept payment for his services, so I cannot see him refusing to see any patient for whatever reason possible.

I am sure that this attempt to harm Dr Abela's reputation will not be taken seriously by his many satisfied patients.
