I am a very active 51 year old man and Mr Atkinson fixed my medial meniscus tear which had been obstructing movement in my leg. After 8 weeks I am back swimming, practicing Yoga 5 times a week (all poses including deep squats and child pose) and I also started kick boxing again. I will be training jiu jitsu again in a week's time. I also climbed the stairs at Highgate tube station this week - all 100 of them - without any pain or locking. I had a very good experience with Mr Atkinson. From initial to final consultation I was very happy with the care given to me. In fact my girlfriend who is also a doctor was very impressed by Mr Atkinson's knowledge on a variety of questions she asked. He was very accommodating of her as well allowing her to talk to him on the phone and with me in my final consultation. I want to thank Mr Atkinson for putting me forward for this care, without this I would be struggling with my physical activities and now I have a new lease of life. Thank you so much.

I travelled by car from the north west to the Kingsbridge Diagnostic Centre, tucked in behind the Kings Hall. Parking was difficult to find, and as the letter instructed me to arrive 15 minutes early, I anxiously clambered out, leaving my husband to park the car while I located the building and the correct floor. The reception staff were mediocre at best, though I did manage to get checked in. Once called through, the procedure itself was completed and an outcome provided. However, the consultant was abrupt and condescending. While I appreciate that private healthcare is under pressure due to NHS waiting times, this is not the standard of service I would expect for something I am paying for. The assistant involved in the process appeared either tired or lacking job satisfaction in their role. Altogether, the atmosphere was dispiriting, and I could not wait to leave the building and be on my way.

Couldn't fault the hospital at all. It is clean, and a very welcoming environment, but of course is absolutely down to the people that run it. Every single member of staff I came across - whether in my pre op assessment appointment, or during my surgical visit - was incredibly kind, patient, and so easy to get along with. I have had few good experiences when it comes to hospital visits, but the two times I've been at The Lister Hospital, I have spoken to and laughed with so many workers. My nurse Rasheed was an absolute gem, and was brilliant with my family when they came to the room after surgery. Whether it was the nurse that helped me to the loo, the people on reception, the physio - every single person I interacted with made it such a calm and positive experience, their kindness will stay with me so thank you very much

Edinburgh GP

We took our 9 year old son to see Dr Narayanan. He has been experiencing symptoms of anxiety and potentially depression which were manifesting themselves as physical symptoms often. We wanted to rule out any physical ailment, however Dr Narayanan went considerably beyond our expectations and was able to help us consider options for our son’s current ADHD medication and other treatment and management options. He’s very quiet and lacks confidence and Dr Narayanan amazed me with her ability to bring him out of his shell and speak to him in a way which helped him to open up. Together with her, we now feel that we now have an expert who is owning our son’s treatment and care and supporting us where we need support. I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Professor Vik Veer

ENT Surgeon

I have been struggling with CPAP therapy. By being completely determined I tolerate the mask and therapy, with what seems to be high marks, according to statistics -machine generated, (low AHIs, 8 hours no leaks etc.) However I don't feel, and never have felt rested.-six months on. I contacted professor Vir as it seemed to me that there must be other factors at play and my local hospital could only offer CPAP and nothing else. My consultation with Professor Veer was excellent. He took a detailed history, made an initial examination and suggested possible underlying causes and further examinations. His communication skills are exceptional and he is obviously very much on top of his speciality and passionate about it.

Mr Jeremy Hoffman

Ophthalmologist

Everyone in the Eye department at Stoke Mandeville and Wycombe Hospitals were amazing - sympathetic , patient and knowledgable. The swift attention and correct medication that I received has, I’m certain, helped me to preserve the sight that I need for my profession. Thank you so much. I was very fortunate to be treated by Consultant Jeremy Hoffman. He made time to answer all my questions, had a wonderful manner and is clearly one of the most qualified and expert specialists in this field. I hope to never have a repeat of a corneal ulcer, but I do know that I was really in the best hands, for which I’m very grateful.

Ms Alison Luther

General Surgeon

I was referred to the breast clinic after finding a lump in my breast at 8 months pregnant and still being there 12 weeks PP. Ms Alison Luther was professional, informative, reassuring and made me feel very relaxed and at ease for what wasn’t a very pleasant reason to be there for. She reassured me that my lump was nothing to worry about but assured me if anything changed that I could come back. She really made a not so pleasant issue be a pleasant experience and I’m grateful for that.

Mrs Mary O'Leary

Osteopath

I received treatment with Mary, having undergone three major surgeries for a twisted bowel. She has really helped relieve the pain in my back, correct my posture, and even managed to soften the thick scar tissue of my midline wound. She is extremely knowledgeable, kind, discreet, and professional. I would highly recommend her services to anyone having undergone surgery or for any other physical pain related matter. Thank you Mary for all your help and hard work Best Jim

OSD Healthcare

My experience once in the practice was very good. Staff friendly and professional. What I found very stressful beforehand was locating the property. The letter that I received from the NHS gave an address of One Medical House which I could not find on any signage. I drove around for 10 mins and was then worried that I would miss my appointment. The letter should be updated to state OSD Healthcare.

Peninsula Heart Clinic

Cardiology

I found the staff to be very helpful and friendly, and the consultants to be very professional and informative. The only negative aspect of my visits is that on my first appointment the radiographer who I was due to see had apparently not been informed that I had arrived. Consequently there was a wait of just over half an hour before I saw him.

Maida Smiles Dental Clinic

Dentistry

Thank you to Cintia Sartini (Hygienist) and Dorota (Practice Manager). I also want to give a very special thank-you to Rania. From the very first moment I walked into the clinic, she made me feel cared for and truly welcomed. Her kindness, warmth, and professionalism have meant so much to me. I’m genuinely very happy and grateful for everything.

Mr Tariq Ismail

General Surgeon

My experience at QE was seamless from reception through to my ultimate appointment with Mr Ismail, who spoke to me about my long sojourn on the Oncology Ward earlier in the summer as well as my bowel cancer operation. Everything was explained to me in detail and I left feeling very comfortable about any future appointments.
