I couldn’t be happier with the care I received from Steve. From start to finish, he was incredibly attentive and on top of every detail, which gave me so much confidence and peace of mind throughout my pregnancy. He is not only highly knowledgeable, but also genuinely friendly and approachable. No question ever felt too small, and he always took the time to explain things clearly and make sure I felt comfortable and informed. His support and professionalism made such a difference during what can be a very overwhelming time. I always felt heard, cared for, and in very capable hands. I’m so grateful for the experience and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an obstetrician who truly goes above and beyond.
10/10. Dr Hatzikostas is a true professional, highly skilled & a gentleman. He goes all out to take the time to discuss your situation & treatment options in as much detail you require & answer any questions. I have seen 4 gynaecologists for a challenging menopause. The only one I am confident in recommending is Dr H! Thank you sincerely.

Dr Hatzikotsas is extremely professional, knowledgeable and friendly. He always goes above and beyond.
I have been seeing Steve for the last 12 years, he is an exceptional doctor a one of a kind. He is extremely thorough in everything he does and takes his time to look at everything thoroughly. He has a wonderful bedside manner and would have to be one of the best doctors I have ever dealt with. I had recently been to my gp with a few issues, and she was not able to help me. She referred me on to Steve and he picked up the issue straight away and put me on medication which resolved my issue. Please do not retire anytime soon Steve you are a true gem.
He was very thorough, reassuring, and took the time to answer all of my questions, which I really appreciated. Everything is progressing as expected, and it was nice to have that extra reassurance. The appointment felt relaxed and informative, and I left feeling much more confident and comfortable moving forward. Overall, a very positive experience.
