I have been seeing Josh at Reflex 18 for the past two months as part of my recovery plan following a Total Knee Replacement in October 2025. During my initial consultation, Josh carefully established my prior level of fitness and worked with me to identify ambitious yet realistic rehabilitation goals. He designed a bespoke programme of graduating exercises which are further adapted during each subsequent appointment. I find it helpful that Josh demonstrates each exercise, fine tunes my ‘effort’ and also emails a visual guide, as a reminder, after each appointment. I believe that I have made far greater progress in terms of knee flexion, stamina and strength by visiting Reflex 18 than I ever would have done if I had attempted to pursue my own rehab using a book or online package. Josh has the ability to identify which muscles need to be worked upon in order to achieve a certain goal and this is something which I could have not done myself. The Reflex 18 rooms are immaculately clean and are well-equipped. I have found every staff member to be friendly and highly professional. There is never any pressure to book further appointments. Parking is plentiful and convenient.. I am very happy with the support which I have received from Reflex 18.

Dr Shankara Paneesha

Haematologist

I have been a patient of Dr. Paneesha’s for around six months now. Being diagnosed with my condition, I knew that it was going to be a long road and a tough battle to good health. Dr. Paneesha’s reputation preceded him and upon meeting him he assured me that I was in good hands, and he definitely kept his promise. He is such a thorough, caring and attentive person. Always greeting me with a smile along with a joke or two, easing the tension in the room. Whether it’s good or not so good news, his delivery is always honest and always impeccable. Now, I am on the other side of treatment and I’ve just received the most amazing news regarding my health, and I am so happy he was guiding me through my journey. Thank you Dr. Paneesha.

I have attended this practice twice now for my son ongoing illness. First visit we have Dr Victor, second we have Justino Monteiro. Both were very professional and friendly. My son who was crying manage to stay calm with both doctors. As a parent I was very happy with the customer care. Also Domingos the practice manager accommodate my son for a last minute appointment in time of crisis, which I was so grateful. Thank you so much for all your attention and looking after my son. I would recommend this place to friends and family.

Mr Luca Pozzi

Psychologist

After working few months with Luca on my long standing anxiety and obsessive thoughts I have improved my life quality beyond what I thought I could. We focused on identifying specific cognitive distortions and developing actionable coping strategies. Each session felt purposeful, and I was consistently provided with 'homework' and practical tools that allowed me to make progress outside of the office. I recommend him to anyone suffering from severe anxiety willing to put the work to obtain tangible improvements in their life.

Spire Leicester Hospital

Dermatology, Ear Nose & Throat Surgery (ENT/Otolaryngology), + 3 more

From my GP referral to my initial appointment it was less then 2 weeks. Before surgery I had 3 post operation assessments. The operation was completed as a day admission. I was kept full informed and treated with kindness and respect by all the staff. Mr Bhardwaj saw me on the morning before the operation and again later after it had been completed. Again, I was kept fully informed about my condition.

Mr Simon Bott

Urologist

Mr Bott is a highly professional , accomplished and very experienced consultant with a friendly , thoughtful and understanding manner which put me immediately at ease. His advice and insightful guidance over the two year period leading up to my having a successful prostatectomy , having discussed all choices , was exemplary. I very, very highly recommend Mr Bott and Urology Partners.

Mr Ali Abbasian

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I had an ankle replacement and it has made a huge difference in my life. Any pain I used to feel has gone and I look forward to a pain free existence going forward. You shouldn’t be intimidated at the prospect of an ankle replacement as the recovery is relatively quick and the pain isn’t severe. Ali Abbasian is a superb surgeon and you can trust him completely

Mr Peter Driscoll

General Surgeon

The operation went exactly as the surgeon had described in our pre-op meeting, as did the post-op care. Since then (5 weeks ago), the recovery has gone well, exactly as per the advice summary issued as part of the post-op care . There have been no ill-effects or discomfort since the opo and I look forward to getting back to my normal outdoor activities.

Kingsbridge Private Hospital Belfast

Vascular Surgery, Breast Surgery, + 37 more

Absolutely ridiculous that my operation was cancelled minutes before I was due to go in to theatre. It was cancelled due to lack of communication! I wasn’t told that I needed to be off a certain medication 4x weeks prior my therefore my procedure couldn’t go ahead as it was high risk! I travelled over 3hrs to be told this is absolutely ridiculous

Mr Niraj Mandal

Ophthalmologist

Mr Mandal explained each stage of the procedure clearly and thoroughly, addressing any concerns I had beforehand. He also outlined the comprehensive aftercare programme and follow-up schedule, which provided reassurance about a full and successful recovery. Looking forward to being glasses and contacts free.

New Forest Psychiatry

Psychiatry

Dr Gordon always explains everything and his reasons behind why he is suggesting things. He always puts his patients at the forefront and checks that they are happy with everything. He offers evening phone calls and offers private prescriptions until you can arrange things with the GP. Highly recommend.

Mr Joseph Sinnott

ENT Surgeon

Mr. Sinnott is an excellent listener, and communicates clearly, with a very pleasant, welcoming professional manner. His technical expertise and knowledge is obvious, but he is also empathetic and compassionate. I really appreciated his advice and the respectful way he treated me as a patient.

HCA UK at The Shard

General Practice (GP), Obstetrics & Gynaecology

Super efficient and super helpful staff. Perhaps the only thing I could say is that there may be too many check-in receptions and at busy times slightly understaffed on certain desks. But overall, the team were super friendly and helpful and I never felt I had to wait too long.

Mr Mohamed Abd Alazeez

Urologist

Mr Alazeez was very friendly and reassuring. He explained all about my procedure and the part I need to play in my own recuperation. His surgery skill are exemplary and after only 8 weeks my scars are smooth and can hardly be felt. Very impressive. A credit to his profession

Spire Harpenden Hospital

Very professional from start to finish, the staff we're all lovely, polite and made you feel welcome and not like a burden, my surgery went well and I am very grateful to Mr Rashid. Thank you so much, and thank you to everyone at spire who looked after me.
