Ms Rachel Clarkson

Nutritionist

Working with Rachel has been genuinely life-changing. My name is Kevin, I'm in my 40's and a buisness owner in London. Over the past nine months, through a sustainable and healthy approach to eating and nutrition, built around a highly personalised, DNA-based programme through The DNA Way, she has helped me lose 21kg to date. I started this journey at 102kg and am now down to 81kg, with my next weight goal being approximately 77kg. Just as importantly, the focus hasn’t only been on weight, but on overall body composition and long-term health. I began at 31% body fat and have reduced this to 22%, with a clear and realistic goal of reaching 15% body fat in a safe and sustainable way. Throughout this process, I have learnt an incredible amount about nutrition, food choices, and how the body actually responds to what we eat. It’s honestly surprising that this level of education isn’t taught in schools, given how fundamental it is to living a healthy, balanced and nutritious life. Rachel doesn’t just tell you what to do, she explains why, which has completely changed how I think about food and nutrition long-term. This has very much been a lifestyle change, not a diet. A key part of the process has been how highly personalised everything has been, using DNA-based nutrition through The DNA Way to tailor the approach specifically to me. This has made it much easier to stay consistent, as the plan fits into my busy work and social life and includes foods that I genuinely enjoy, rather than feeling restrictive. The journey has not been straightforward, as I have a number of medical challenges that need to be carefully factored into everything we do. These limitations have restricted how much physical exercise I’ve been able to carry out, meaning progress hasn’t been driven by training alone. Instead, we’ve had to be thoughtful, strategic, and creative in our approach. Rachel has been exceptional at adapting plans around these constraints, ensuring that everything remains safe, realistic, and achievable while still delivering consistent results. Despite these challenges, progress has continued, and that’s been one of the most reassuring parts of working with Rachel. There is always a clear plan, measurable goals, and a structured approach that keeps things moving forward without compromising my health. I’m confident we will reach the remaining goals by staying disciplined, trusting the process, and continuing to work to the plan we’ve put in place, particularly because the approach is tailored to my DNA and therefore works for me as an individual. The biggest takeaway I can give anyone considering working with Rachel is that success comes down to discipline and consistency, but those are made much easier when the approach fits around real life and is built specifically for you. Rachel provides everything you need, including the education, structured plans, guidance, and recipe ideas, but it’s up to you to follow through. If you commit to the process and apply what she teaches you, the results will come. I’m living proof that even with medical limitations, a busy lifestyle, and long-term habits to change, meaningful and lasting change is absolutely possible with the right support and approach.

Professor Samuel Ford

General Surgeon

From the first moment I met Professor Ford I knew I was in great hands. He is so friendly and approachable. He immediately put me at ease. He explained what he would do for me in easy to understand language and I couldn’t wait for my incisional hernia repair. I didn’t have to wait long. I had my pre-op the following week and my operation at The Priory the week after that. The operation went amazingly well and all the staff were excellent and friendly too. I saw professor Ford again last night to have my surgical drain removed and find out what happens next. As it transpires my operation presented challenges that he rather enjoyed solving to my benefit. I feel great just one week since my operation. He has cautioned me to take care until 6 weeks has passed. I promised him I will.

Mr Hisham Shalaby

Orthopaedic Surgeon

The visit was for a two year review of a revision ankle replacement. I was very pleased to have been able to undertake this just some two or three months after a telephone contact with Mt Shalaby's secretary at St John's. Mr Shalaby was courteous as ever, gave clearly understandable information throughout the conversation. Furthermore, and somewhat unexpectedly, he flagged up a further review around the five year anniversary of the operation. I am, as before, delighted with the result of the intervention and have indeed recommended the process - and Mr Shalaby and his team - to a number of ankly distressed friends and acquaintances.

Cathedral Eye Clinic

Ophthalmology, Optometry

Kiera was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and made me feel very much at ease throughout my appointment. I was diagnosed with a Retina tear in my ear and she made me feel very much at ease and safe. She talked throughout, keeping me informed of everything that was happening, giving reassurance that everything will be ok and that should I need further information or just needed to chat at about it, I was to ring her and speak to her about it. Help and advice that was offered was exceptional!

Mrs Claire Freeman

Podiatrist

I recently visited the hospital for foot operation and I was really impressed with my doctor. From the start, Mrs Claire Freeman listened carefully to everything I had to say without rushing, explained the operation and options clearly, and answered all my questions patiently. Their kindness and professionalism made what could have been a worrying experience feel calm and manageable. The care was thorough, compassionate, and spot on. I would highly recommend Mrs Claire Freeman to anyone.

Thyroid blood test. Never been before. Autistic so some challeges : a sign on door to push would have helped, it was intimidating, couldn’t get in straight away. An area with reduced lighting to wait would have reduced my overwhelm, was very close to waiting outside. Became very overwhelmed trying to explain which test I had booked, knew there was a fault on the website. Although the situation was rectified satisfactorily, it was still an overwhelming, triggering experience.

Miss Chrissie Laban

Breast Surgeon

I felt the appointment answered all my questions, even though the result was still quite shocking and I'm trying to come to terms with it. I was, and still am, very anxious but felt that was dealt with well. I'm sorry if I asked silly questions a few times. I'm just scared of the effects on my family, especially my children - and also losing all the everyday things that I value - and that support my mental and physical health.

I visited the clinic today with my elderly mother who is experiencing a number of health concerns. Dr Oates was kind professional and extremely thorough during the consultation. He made my mum feel very comfortable and explained everything very well. We now have a plan in place to move forward and feel more positive. We would definitely use the clinic in the future and would 100% recommend to others.

Newmedica Newcastle

Ophthalmology

I was amazed by the e efficiency of the staff and how reassuring they were I was introduced to everybody involved, who were all very kind.. It was painless, over so quickly, the consultant Ayad Shafiq was talking to me all the time and the nurse I Fiona was with me throughout everything, even holding my hand through the procedure. I’m actually looking forward to my other eye appointment!!

Dr Noman Ali

Cardiologist

I chose this cardiologist based on his excellent reviews, and I’m very glad I did. From the outset, he listened carefully to my concerns and made me feel completely at ease. He took the time to explain everything clearly, ensuring I felt informed and reassured at every step. His calm and approachable manner made a significant difference, and I would not hesitate to recommend him to others.

Dr Diab Haddad

Paediatrician

We took our 15-month-old son to Dr. Haddad after weeks of persistent coughing and nightly fevers. He was thorough, attentive, and quickly identified the issue. The treatment he prescribed cleared all symptoms within five. We’re truly grateful for his accurate diagnosis and professional care. Highly recommend Dr. Haddad for anyone seeking effective and compassionate paediatric support.

Dr. Wisam Alwan

Dermatologist

Dr Alwan is an excellent dermatologist who has already made a huge difference to my acne. Dr Alwan is attentive, knowledgeable, and very kind. He creates a relaxed, comfortable environment at every appointment. I always feel listened to and involved in decisions about my care. The results speak for themselves, and I couldn’t recommend Dr Alwan more highly.
