Mr Roberto Casula

Cardiothoracic Surgeon

From my experience with Mr. Casula, I have no doubt that he is an expert in his field. I consulted him for a severe mitral regurgitation, a condition I knew very little about, but he explained the issue clearly and described the symptoms I was likely experiencing with complete accuracy. He then walked me through the impact of my condition and how it could progress if left untreated. It quickly became clear that timely treatment was essential. Next came the discussion about treatment options—repair the valve, with a fallback to replacement it if necessary, along with the choice of replacement available using minimal invasive treatment for fast recovery time. This was the most intimidating part of the entire process, but Mr. Casula made everything as straightforward as possible so my family and I could make an informed decision. What impressed me most was his high standard of care: he wasn’t willing to let me undergo a 4–6 hour surgery without ensuring a lasting, effective solution. We talked through our goal and the contingency options if the initial plan wasn’t achievable. On the day of the surgery, he made sure my family and I were fully comfortable with the surgery plan, what I was going to go through, and what to expect afterward. Just over four hours later (which felt more like 30 minutes to me), I woke up to learn that the surgery had gone smoothly and there had been no need to consider any of the backup plans. That was two weeks ago, either I have high tolerance for pain or the pain management is excellent. I mostly too paracetamol and he is still checking in to make sure I’m doing well. His care has been truly amazing and has exceeded all my expectations. Thank you, Dr. Casuala.

Delamere: Private Rehab Clinic & Addiction Treatment

Holistic Therapy, Psychiatry, + 1 more

Wow, what an amazing place with a holistic approach to recovery. Far from previous experiences that simply provide a detox and a few tools tacked on the end. Delamere provides any willing individual the opportunity to explore yourself and a way of life that can truly bring balance and happiness. The food was excellent, home cooked with minimal processed food, probably only the tofu as the vegetarian option was processed, along with bacon and sausage for breakfast. Chefs were very approachable and friendly, even gained some advice on what to cook at home. The overall environment was clean, tidy and well maintained. The liaison team were excellent and always on hand to support and guide when needed.The nursing team were also superb, always there to answer any medical questions in a compassionate way. The mentors provided clear direction without judgement or bias. My therapist was second to none and created a safe environment for me to discover myself, while always being there to catch me when I stumbled. All in all a life changing experience. I have left with a solid toolset and aftercare package that will steer me through a joyful life with my friends and family. Only negative was the insane temperature in the bedrooms…..bring some cool PJs.

Mr Chukwuemeka Okaro

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

My experience with Mr Okaro was excellent and very smooth from the start. He handled my case with extreme empathy and calmness to deliver some overwhelming news to me. He was very reassuring and gained my trust and confidence very quickly, in his professional nature. I was petrified about going through with the surgery, but he explained the procedure and all the steps involved. I eventually tried to do a 'runner' and not face it, but he was encouraging and reminded me of the benefits and newness I would feel afterwards. I had a slight hiccup / setback for the initial surgery date, but he was great in explaining how to get back on track and was flexible to accommodate another date promptly. I was not happy to have had to go through surgery, but I am happy to have met Mr Okaro and go through this journey with him. I celebrated my birthday the next day after my discharge from hospital and I silently dedicated that birthday celebration to him! I am totally relieved and happy to have this medical issue behind me now. So Grateful & Thankful to God & Mr Okaro. I feel very blessed & looking forward to a refreshing future!

Cleveland Clinic London

Vascular Surgery, Gastroenterology, + 10 more

Excellent care - Cannot fault how Ms Adams and Mr Parker and their teams looked after my mother before, during and after her operation. We paid personally for the operation (~£40k) but our experience with the billing and payments and the wider admin team is in a complete mess. We had to pay up front for everything prior to admission, which was ok, but unexpected (could have been better communicated to us, rather than a sentence lost in some paperwork), and fairly sure the insurance companies which they usually deal with wouldn't do this. One of the payments/billing team then visited my mother in her hospital bed, 4 days after a major abdominal surgery and started demanding more money verbally (to be paid that evening/the next day) with no paperwork/invoice/backup). Some things weren't done as part of the operation and the Consultant messaged us to say that it should be discounted, but no adjustment has been made. I have requested detailed backup on numerous occasions, and nothing has come through. A real shame that the medical and care team have been let down by the Cleveland back office on this occasion.

Mr George Spink

Neurosurgeon

I had a PLIF operation with additional decompression by neurosurgeon George Spink at Spire Anlaby .. Autumn 2025. George was professional throughout the whole process. I had plenty of unpressured opportunities to ask questions and recieved clear answers without too much medical jargon. This gave me confidence in Mr Spinks long experience for what was a major surgery with good explanation of the risks involved. Following the operation whilst in recovery Mr Spink took time to talk personally with my wife and reassure her the procedure went well. The operation was very successful and I mobilised the next day. In my experience the Spire Anlaby (Hull) hospital team can be trusted to provide a very professional service. I can therefore wholeheartedly recommend George for complex spinal procedures.

The London Clinic

Geriatric Medicine, Haematology, + 13 more

Wonderful care from good staff but the bed was uncomfortable and the room was too small and felt airless and too hot. But the main thing is that hopefully this surgery will enable me to have a better quality of life. I already feel that my powers of concentration have improved and my brain is working better. It seems to me that once the soreness and itchy neck skin heals I will be back at the gym in January feeling thirty years younger. The hospital has done a good job and staff team are excellent. My only recommendation is that you knock the building down and build some more comfortable bedrooms with good ventilation with some comfortable beds for tall people.

Spencer Private Hospital Margate

Pain Management, Audiology, + 12 more

Having not been inside a private hospital in a long time, I wasn’t sure what to expect. The Spencer is not luxurious in any way and there are no nods to suggest that you are in private hospital compared to run of the mill NHS establishments (I think many including me, have forgotten just how ropey most NHS hospitals were in comparison). It is however, a more relaxed environment and on a much smaller scale. Attention from staff was great and the treatment (so far anyway!) seems top notch in terms of highly expert consultations. It’s too soon to tell how effective my treatment is, but I feel im in good, safe hands.

Cooden Medical Group

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Dermatology, + 4 more

I had a consultation with Dr Benjamin Salt on 2nd December. I found him pleasant and informative. He began by asking for my experience and history of the varicose veins which were the occasion for my visit. At no stage did I feel rushed rather that I was being given the time to explore not just the physical details but the attitudes which might shape my decision on whether to go ahead. Dr Salt clearly outlined the procedures involved, the risks and the outcomes for the future. I shall read the letter to follow with care and will feel able to make an informed decision. Thank you.

Cathedral Eye Clinic

Ophthalmology, Optometry

As per usual every part of my visit is very professional and all the communication is prompt and informative, it is good to receive a copy of the progress. My last visit was on Saturday 6th December and it was a review of the laser treatment on my left eye - I was delighted when the review confirmed that the pressure on my eye had fallen to normal - this was a 50% reduction. I only had to put one eye drop at night. This was very professional and I have a six monthly review in my diary for 2026. I would have no problems at all in recommending Cathedral Eye Clinic.

Check4Cancer

Diagnostics & Testing, Oncology

With a history of long term sunbed use and holidays abroad i decided to book an appointment for a skin check. The check was done manually and not a machine like other clinics advertise. The nurse was extremely friendly and I felt comfortable straight away. She conducted the examination and fed back to me on everything she found as she went along. I had a few questions to ask regarding sun exposure and found her very knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend the clinic and have gained lots of information I can use for the future.

Dr John Ferguson

Dermatologist

The doctor was excellent — very friendly, knowledgeable, and made me feel comfortable throughout my consultation. However, I’ve been waiting for over seven weeks for my report, and despite following up with the secretary several times, I still haven’t received any update. It’s quite disappointing, as this delay takes away from what was otherwise a very positive experience with the doctor. I truly hope the clinic can improve its communication and follow-up process, as it would make a big difference to patients’ overall experience.

Paediatric Diagnostics

Gastroenterology, Diagnostics & Testing, + 5 more

All staff, including the doctor we saw, we're very friendly, made us feel at ease, and the procedure appears to have been carried out smoothly. The only thing I'd fault is the communication before the appointment, particularly the emails. They include a misleading price, the suggestion that a follow-up would not be required (when we understand that is completely normal) and we'd understood that we could/should be in the room when the procedure was taking place, which was then quite strongly advised against.

Dr Nicos Spyrou

Cardiologist

Dr Spyrou took a very careful and thorough history, and made logical recommendations for investigation. Once the results were available he contacted me immediately and saw me the next day to discuss them. He gave me options for further investigation and treatment and took note of my views. I could not have asked for more careful and understanding treatment. His practical skill at interventional cardiology is obviously the best.

Miss Stella Ivaz

Urologist

Miss Ivaz made me feel entirely at ease despite the topic being sensitive and extremely private. I felt more able to discuss my condition openly than I have during previous discussions with other urologists. Miss Ivaz was able to explain medical issues and treatment options very clearly. I would not hesitate to revisit Miss Ivaz if the need were to arise.

Mr Oliver Harley

Plastic Surgeon

I had surgery for Dupuytren’s contracture on my left hand with Mr. Harley and am very pleased with the result, giving me significantly more movement and reach which as a musician is invaluable to me. My experience at the hospital was excellent and I really couldn’t have been looked after better by Mr. Harley and his wonderful team. Many thanks.

Mr Tim Dudderidge

Urologist

True professional; set me and my loved ones at ease. I had complete confidence that i was in very safe hands given his experience and the assurance of the thorough and clear explanation of the procedure to be undertaken. Post op and follow up appointments have been first class. I would highly recommend Tim to others.
