Mr Sam Dobson

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I first saw Dr Dobson in mid-June after realising, at the ripe age of 44, that I was showing clear signs of perimenopause. My NHS GP wasn't taking my concerns seriously at all. I was basically told I was too young and should try meditation. (Not sure how that's meant to help with night sweats, but there we are). From the minute I sat down with Dr Dobson, the experience was completely different. He was patient, thorough, and most importantly, he actually listened. He took my symptoms seriously and helped me figure out what mattered most to improve my day-to-day life. We agreed on a treatment plan and a clear follow-up process, which immediately gave me a lot more confidence. At my first review, he quickly identified what was and wasn't working and adjusted the medication without any fuss. During my final consultation, he even noticed something I'd brushed off as insignificant (a bit of irritation from the adhesive on the HRT patch) and explained that I didn't have to tolerate it. He offered an alternative straight away. It sounds small, but it really showed how much he pays attention and genuinely wants your treatment to work properly, not "good enough", which as women we learn to do with our health at a very young age. I've now been handed back to my NHS GP for the ongoing prescription, which is exactly the outcome I hoped for. I wouldn't hesitate to go back to Dr Dobson in future if I needed to. He made a stressful and frankly dismissive experience elsewhere feel manageable, and I'm really grateful for that.

Mr Mfazo Hove

Ophthalmologist

I had ICL surgery at the Phoenix Hospital in Chelmsford with Dr. Hove to correct my -7.00 prescription. Dr. Hove recommended this procedure as my prescription was quite high, and the laser eye surgery I initially wanted (with my limited eye knowledge at the time!) wasn’t the best option for me. I’m so glad I trusted his advice because the ICL surgery has truly been life-changing! I could actually see clearly as soon as I got off the operating table, and after a good night’s rest, I woke up with 20/20 vision and felt completely back to normal. The entire procedure was quick, completely painless, and far easier than I ever expected. Dr. Hove and the theatre team were absolutely wonderful, and the nurses at Phoenix Hospital were so kind and reassuring — they really helped me feel calm and comfortable throughout the whole experience. Overall, a 10/10 experience — nothing to worry about and I’m beyond happy with my results. Thank you, Dr. Hove and the team!

Mr David Shields

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I recently had shoulder surgery performed by Mr David Shields, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome and overall experience. From the very first consultation, he took the time to explain everything clearly and put me completely at ease about the procedure. His professionalism, expertise, and calm, reassuring manner gave me total confidence in his care. The surgery itself went smoothly, and the aftercare I received was excellent. Mr Shields followed up personally to ensure my recovery was on track, and his team were equally supportive and attentive throughout. I’ve had fantastic results and a much quicker recovery than I expected. I can’t thank Mr Shields enough for his skill and compassion — I’d highly recommend him to anyone needing shoulder surgery or specialist advice.

Mr Sumit Midya

General Surgeon

I recently had a hernia repair carried out by Mr Midya at Clare Park Hospital, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the outstanding care I received. From the very first consultation, Mr Midya was professional, reassuring, and extremely thorough. The operation itself was done smoothly and to the highest standard — his skill and attention to detail are truly remarkable. I felt completely confident in his hands, and the entire process was handled with great efficiency and care. My recovery has been excellent so far, and I genuinely believe this is a reflection of the high-quality work he performed. I would highly recommend Mr Midya to anyone in need of surgery. An exceptional surgeon and a credit to Clare Park Hospital. Thank you Darius

Mr Seni Subair

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

We recently had Seni as our consultant for my wife’s pregnancy. Whilst we were going down the midwife led route we had to get Seni involved beforehand to discuss any potential issues and also he was needed for the birth of the baby. I can’t recommend him enough, he made us all feel very at ease and calm which is exactly what you want when your wife is giving birth. His instructions were excellent and he went about his business very professionally and my wife and I were very impressed with him. He haa a very dry sense of humour too which went down a treat. Can’t recommend enough.

Moorfields Private Eye Hospital

Ophthalmology

I saw Mr Ali Abbas recently and I was pleased with the visit. He was very thorough and explained things very clearly. He took his time to consider a differential diagnosis for my problem and the course of action he suggested has helped me feeling better after years of increasing pain. What I liked the most is that his approach was not limited to treating the symptoms now but to protect the health of my eyes in the long term. His secretary Natasha Masih-Lal was also very helpful with appointments etc.

Fit2Function

Sports & Exercise Medicine, Physiotherapy, + 2 more

Fit2function is the best physio clinic I have visited. As a sportsman, physio is an important part of my routine for both rehab and prehab. Many of the clinics I have attended don’t accommodate sports and return to play. My experience at Fit2function was great. I saw Harrison, who is an ex athlete and understood my needs well. The equipment is modern and top of the range, and the philosophy is very aligned to returning to sport and having the best possible outcome. I would highly recommend them.

Lanthorn Clinic

Diagnostics & Testing, Imaging (Scans), + 4 more

I had an injury last year on my left calf alongside recurring main in my right foot so wanted to get them checked. Dr Lord effectively assessed my calf, showed a very small tear, and then looked at my feet and told me there’s minor thickening in one of the tendons, which wouldn’t require any intervention but recommended physio for both including some effective stretching. Now I’ve got my report I can give to my physio and monitor it more effectively ACTUALLY knowing what’s wrong.

Spire Hartswood Hospital

Weight Loss & Bariatric Surgery, Allergy Medicine, + 20 more

The Spire is a very clean and well equipt hospital but with limited parking. However, my last trip to the spire hartswood had an hours delay before I was seen, which isnt ideal. My thoughts on this is if Reform get their way and sell off NHS that private sector is no better equipt to deal with volume than NHS. Tjat daid onve seen I was treated by a lovely nurse Marianne who was very caring and jolly which made yhe appointment a very pmeasurable experience.

Mr Ahmad Sayasneh

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

Mr Sayasneh, is compassionate, kind, gentle, respectful, very thorough, totally professional, highly knowledgeable and very experienced gynaecologist. He is an excellent communicator, explains everything in lay person’s terms and his letter reports concerning visits, examinations and diagnosis are articulate, thorough, understandable and unbelievably prompt. I can’t recommend him highly enough and am grateful for his services and care.

Dr Andrew John Nicolaou

Pain Management Specialist

I visited Dr Nicolaou for a pain management plan. We firstly took a conservative approach to pain as he was very holistic about his treatment which I believe is brilliant care. Next, we decided that injections were the way forward. He explained and reassured the whole way, was kind polite and exceptionally supportive and knowledgeable- everything you could ever need from a doctor. Thank you to Andrew and his very kind team.

The Coriel Clinic

Dermatology, Ear Nose & Throat Surgery (ENT/Otolaryngology), + 7 more

The staff team were absolutely amazing from front desk to care to surgery and extremely patient with an awkward customer, I couldn't rate them better Stand outs were Tony (obviously), Scott, Kelly & Vicky (sorry not sure if I have these names all correct) An all-round great experience apart from the number of needles required but that's my fault THANK YOU team Coriel

The Ü Clinic

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, General Practice (GP), + 4 more

Really good experience. Dr Shiv put me at ease straight away and I felt really comfortable with her. She listened to my concerns and explained my plan going forward in an easy way to understand. She gave my low confidence a boost and made me believe that I can change my lifestyle going forward. I would highly recommend her service to everyone.

The London Independent Hospital (part of Circle Health Group)

Gastroenterology, Dermatology, + 8 more

To a person, everyone involved with my care has been terrific at the London Independent Hospital. This includes the pre-op team, in-patient doctors and nurses, in-patient kitchen/chef team, reception staff, surgery team, the physiotherapy team and of course my consultant surgeon. I feel very lucky to have been a patient at this hospital.

The York Dental Suite by Mafalda Queiroz

Dentistry

Had an appointment for fillings with Meghan today. Best dentist experience I've ever had. I am a very anxious person but Meghan was super patient and did an incredible job! I am very happy! I also had an appointment with hygienist Lily and it was absolutely amazing aswell! Now I'm finally not afraid of the dentist anymore. Bianca

Mr Rikki Mistry

Plastic Surgeon

I was very anxious and nervous when I came for my surgery. Mr Mistry was very kind and supportive and made my experience very positive . I would thoroughly recommend him he has such a brilliant way with his patients and if I had to have my other hand done I would not be as worried. Thank you
