Dr. Gergana Peeva

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

This review is 4 years later than it should be, because I only today came across the scan code to do a review. 4 years or 40 years, I will never forget the magnificent Dr Gergana Peeva who delivered our second and final child for our family. I had a very traumatic experience when I was forced into an elective c section at another hospital with our first child, the choice to have a natural birth was taken from me despite my having no medical issues but because I was an older mum, the Dr strongly advised it and as I didn’t know any better, i made the mistake of listening to the Dr. It took me many years to recover from the traumatic c section when induction failed. So second time around, I chose Homerton Hospital as I read many good things on the Care Commission website. When my waters broke, I made it clear at the hospital I wanted to have a natural birth, the difference it the nurses and Dr’s listened to me this time and this really made all the difference to me both mentally and emotionally. After 2 days and much helpful, caring and understanding dialogue between the Dr’s and myself, I agreed to a c section. But this time it was my decision and it was because I understood natural birth was not progressing which was harmful to the baby. Dr Peeva took me aside and gently explained things and we went through my concerns. The nurse who assisted, I can’t remember her name due to the years that have passed, I think her name was Genesis, was also wonderful in her care towards me. I was open to all staff on my previous traumatic c- section at the other hospital and they were willing to listen and their empathy made my second birth, albeit a c section again as I had not wanted, a much better and happier overall experience. When Dr Peeva held up our baby following delivery and imitated the scene from the lion king, it has etched in my mind and memory with deep fondness for her. I can and will never forget the kindness, professionalism and simply goodness of Dr Peeva, a wonderful and amazing human being regardless of her profession.

Mr David Lawrence

Cardiothoracic Surgeon

My experience with Mr. David Lawrence may be described as nothing short of FIVE STAR PLUS. From the beginning, Mr. Lawrence has been hugely approachable, friendly and reassuring; he gave me all the information I wanted/needed to know about my surgery and engendered in me a feeling of complete confidence that I was definitely in the safest of hands. Shortly before my surgery, Mr. Lawrence came to see me and although I was very nervous by then, never having had an operation in my life, he managed to make me feel a little more at ease, it was just somehow reassuring to have those few words with him. The operation has been a success and in my opinion - and in the words of Tina Turner - he is 'SIMPLY THE BEST". HUGE "THANK YOU" to Mr. David Lawrence.

The London Clinic

Physiotherapy, Dermatology, + 13 more

I had a video consultation with Dr Kallis. In the previous months I had a abdominal ultrasound scan and a CT abdomen and pelvis dual phase scan which appeared to show conflicting results. Dr Kallis explained the purpose and limitations of such scans as the reason for such conflicts, which I found understandable and reassuring. He also outlined the appropriate tests to take to clarify any remaining issues. Dr Kallis was patient and clear in responding to any questions I had. The organisation of the video consultation was very efficiently handled by his Medical Secretary. I would certainly recommend Dr Kallis

The Royal Free London Private Patients Unit

Breast Surgery, Ear Nose & Throat Surgery (ENT/Otolaryngology), + 18 more

I spent 3 days at the Royal Free PPU as an in-patient following major surgery and I have nothing but praise for the treatment I recieved from start to finish. My surgery was scheduled speedily, the operation went as well as hoped, and all of the PPU team members who took care of me - Consultants, Doctors, Nurses, Healthcare Assistants and Housekeeping - were professional but at the same time, kind and reassuring. I was really anxious about the surgery and for me, the care that I received as an in-patient, made the whole experience so much less stressful.

Spencer Private Hospital Canterbury

Pain Management, Cardiology, + 6 more

On Saturday, I attended Canterbury Hospital at 7:30 am for a minor operation on my finger. Two nurses looked after me and prepared me beforehand. Emma went out of her way to help. I had a very good discussion with the test and we decided that general anaesthetic would be the best route. Mr. Smith carried out the operation and I was lucky to see him afterwards when I came round and he said it had been completely successful. Everything seemed very calm, organised and professional. Many thanks for my treatment.

Living Mind

Psychiatry

Living Mind provides a very high standard of care for ADHD treatment. The overall process was well organised, professional, and efficient, from initial assessment through to ongoing support. Communication was clear and timely, and the approach felt structured while still being personalised. The quality of care has had a clear positive impact on my daily functioning, and I would confidently recommend the clinic to others seeking specialist ADHD support.

The Horder Centre

Orthopaedic Surgery, Physiotherapy

I had a knee replacement and had a reaction to the anaesthetic which resulted in me having to spend several days in bed vomiting copiously. The staff were so supportive and caring; the nurses couldn’t help enough, the porters, physios, catering staff and cleaning crew were good natured , helpful and thorough. Since arriving home I have had numerous phone conversations with Horder staff, who have been reassuring and helpful with my recovery.

Mr Shanmugasundaram Rajkumar

Orthopaedic Surgeon

From first meeting Mr Rajkumar 3 years ago (where he gave me very helpful advice on pain management for my knees) to having a partial knee replacement 6 weeks ago, I found him to be very caring and professional. He has a lovely manner and explains things thoroughly and also listens to any concerns you may have. He also provides advice on aftercare and shows a real interest in how you are progressing.

The London Independent Hospital (part of Circle Health Group)

Gastroenterology, Dermatology, + 8 more

I received shoulder surgery and was able to be discharged the same day. All of the nursing staff were friendly and informative, the physio treatment and advice was informative. All the staff I came across were very friendly. I especially enjoyed the roast dinner which was hot when served (a new experience). I would highly recommend Mr Khan and the London Independent hospital.

We went in for a day surgery with my child and were very looked after by Stuart and the team. Emily the play therapist did an excellent job explaining the steps of the procedure, making my child feel well-informed. Both our consultants Mr Johal and Dr Miskovic were very knowledgeable and approachable and made my child feel well-informed and as calm and prepared as possible.

Mr Duncan Avis

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Mr Avis was very nice and went through my procedure and reassured me. I felt looked after. He was very professional in his work. I was comfortable throughout and the nurses talked to me and held my other hand. Before I knew it, it was done, no pain and finished. Mr Avis explained how to care for my hand and a follow up was arranged for 6 weeks. Excellent, highly recommend

Not having been private before I’m thankful I chose this option and am now looking to pay for private health care for me and my family on the back of it. Thank you to the One Hatfield team.

Dr Shanthi Paramothayan

Respiratory Doctor

Dr Paramothayan was very detailed and diligent in her explanation of the causes of my condition and the path she put me on ended nearly two years of very unpleasant lung difficulties. She was particularly good at following up on interventions and maintaining contact with me to ensure my return to health had been sustained.
