Mr Stephen Dalgleish

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Aged 42 I had some complex tears in my meniscal cartilage, revealed upon examination by MRI scan. This had been causing me significant discomfort and intermittent swelling behind my knee for many months before seeing Mr Dalgliesh. I am a keen runner and wanted to explore the possible options to get me back at it asap. After already having had a partial meniscectomy approximately 20 years earlier for a different injury, I was particularly concerned this could impact my future running. But Stephen Dalgliesh explained my options and how surgical practices had evolved since. His patience and personable manner put me at complete ease. In order to preserve as much cushioning as possible, it was suggested that he could conduct a meniscal repair rather than a further partial meniscectomy. I underwent the meniscal repair procedure in August 2025. I am very satisfied with the outcome, 4 months on. Mr Dalgliesh used a gold standard approach to my procedure to improve healing and preserve tissue. After careful adherence to post operative rehab, physio and strengthening protocols, I have recently been able to begin reintroducing running again and, on the current trajectory, expect to be increasing my mileage on the trails in 2026. I would rate Stephen Dalgliesh highly and would enthusiastically recommend him to anyone requiring assistance of this kind.

Professor John Deanfield

Cardiologist, Paediatrician

Professor Deanfield is exceptional. I have been treated by several highly regarded cardiologists over the years, all of whom were very good. However, Professor Deanfield operates at a different level. He takes the time to listen carefully, ensures you feel fully understood, and explains complex medical issues in clear, simple terms that are genuinely easy to grasp. What truly sets him apart is not only his clinical expertise, but his manner. He is calm, thoughtful, and genuinely caring, which gives real reassurance at what can otherwise be an anxious time. Since coming under his care, my health has improved significantly, and I have felt consistently well supported throughout. The same can be said of his team. Mel and Serenity are both thoroughly professional, warm, and clearly care deeply about patients. Together, they create an environment that feels supportive, personal, and well organised, with an excellent bedside manner throughout. I would have no hesitation in recommending Professor Deanfield and his team.

Urban TRT

Endocrinology & Diabetes

I started TRT last July at a point when I was struggling significantly with fatigue, anxiety, and poor sleep. Since beginning treatment, all of those areas have improved dramatically, and the difference in my overall wellbeing has been genuinely life changing. A large part of that is down to Chris and the environment he has created at Urban TRT. Throughout the process he has monitored my progress closely, explaining results clearly and adjusting treatment thoughtfully where needed. What really sets Urban TRT apart, however, is how personable and approachable Chris and the team are. I have always felt informed, listened to, and confident that my health was being managed properly rather than simply being treated by numbers alone. I genuinely would not hesitate to recommend Urban TRT to anyone considering TRT or looking for a clinician who takes a genuinely holistic and professional approach to patient care.

Schoen Clinic Chelsea

Coaching, Holistic Therapy, + 7 more

My care at this clinic has been outstanding and I would recommend it to anyone needing expert psychiatric support for complex trauma. The service is psychiatry-led, with the consultant coordinating treatment plans and supervising input from psychology, occupational therapy, group therapy and trauma modalities including EMDR, DBT, CBT and embodied psychotherapy. This ensured that care was coherent rather than fragmented. I initially attended four in-person sessions per week and have now safely transitioned to monthly. The team have specialist expertise in workplace bullying, institutional power dynamics and identity-related trauma, which is unusual to find. The level of understanding and clinical leadership has made a meaningful difference to my recovery, and I could not recommend the service more highly.

Practice Plus Group Surgical Centre, Devizes

Dentistry, Ear Nose & Throat Surgery (ENT/Otolaryngology), + 6 more

I was made to wait 6 months for my cataract operations because I had a cardioversion. This is a short sedation rather than a general anaesthetic. I have been given no clinical explanations for this. I am in perfect health despite my age. I understand that a normal waiting time at other hospitals is 6 weeks with good recovery after a major operation. I suspect there are no clinical reasons, just a bureaucratic hesitation to take the slightest risk. I wonder how many patients discover that “Well soon” should be retitled “Well sometime”. Your bureaucratic incompetence is illustrated by your list of specialists which does not include the name of my surgeon, your lead ophthalmologist Dr Marzena Raszewska. It is her recorded ability that persuaded me to wait the 6 months rather than seek an alternative.

Mr Naga Venkatesh Jayanthi

General Surgeon

From the first appointment to my last Mr Jayanthi showed care and compassion and I finally felt like someone was listening and wanted to help resolve the issues I was having. I was scheduled in to have surgery a few weeks later and he made me feel so at ease and talked through the procedure and calmed my nerves before going to theatre. After the operation he came to make sure everything was ok and explained what the findings were after the op and made sure I was happy with everything before being discharged. The care I received was first class and would highly recommend Mr Jayanthi.

Pure Sports Medicine - Moorgate

Nutrition, Osteopathy, + 4 more

I'd laboured under my shoulder injury for 6 months, and Chris was able to achieve vast improvements in comfort and ability within weeks. Chris was impressively professional and meticulous, a pleasure to visit and I always felt willing to go the extra mile to explain the process to me and make detailed recommendations. This has really brought about a transformation in my quality of life, and I'm delighted to be back doing the things I love. Almost two months after first visiting the clinic, I am fully recovered- absolutely game-changing, could not recommend enough.

Mr Sean Molloy

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I had a 2 level spinal fusion and decompression carried out in 2 stages to relieve my sciatica. Mr Molloy had been extremely thorough in his initial examination and identified a problem previously missed by another spinal surgeon. My operations have been a total success and I have no sciatica whatsoever. Mr Molloy was meticulous in organising and overseeing my recovery to ensure there were no complications. In my opinion he is a brilliant surgeon who looks beyond the operation in hand in order to mitigate problems that might otherwise occur at a later stage.

Mr Issaq Ahmed

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Getting bilateral knee replacement surgery can be a daunting thought for most people but the benefits of getting it done are so worthwhile. No more continuous pain and a good restful sleep every night is wonderful. I feel lucky to have had the services of Dr Ahmed and his team as everything has been handled very professionally. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to someone I knew that was experiencing knee problems. At age 65 my goal is to get my life back and make the most of this new mobility, following a long period of simply limping along.

OCL Vision London

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Ophthalmology

I had Smartsight surgery with Allon Barsam about 2 months ago. The whole process from initial consultation, to surgery, to follow up appointments has been fantastic, and I would highly recommend OCL to anyone considering vision correction. You really get that premium, personalised feel here. Everyone I interacted with was kind, helpful and reassuring. I'm delighted with my new vision and the days of having to think about contacts and glasses feel like a distant memory. A heartfelt thank you to the whole OCL Vision team!

Deben Private GP Services

General Practice (GP)

I am very happy with my first experience at the Practice today. Everyone was relaxed and friendly. It was so reassuring to be certain I was seeing an actual medically qualified person (uncertain in todays NHS) whose judgement therefore I felt I could trust. Dr Ridout was very understanding and approachable - an attentive listener, carried out an objective examination and was happy to discuss it together with why she was suggesting the proposed treatment plan. I would definitely recommend this Practice.

Mr Aris Konstantopoulos

Ophthalmologist

After having a consultation with Aris I decided to go ahead with two separate Cataract operations over a few months in late 2025. Must admit I was very worried about the procedure, however Aris explained everything to me and was very patient and kind. If anyone requires Eye Surgery I would say he is an Amazing Surgeon and if possible get him to treat you. Since the Operation my Eyesight is just fantastic - it was well worth the worry .

Mr Neil Kukreja

General Surgeon

I met with Mr Kukreja who was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and reassuring. He explained everything in great detail in a way that was easy for me to understand, and made me thoroughly aware of the potential risks of my treatment in a way that was calming rather than frightening. It is quite impressive to meet someone for the first time and immediately develop a strong sense of trust. For this, I am very grateful.

Clarity - Blackpool

Ophthalmology

I decided to have laser correction done privately after finding out the waiting time for NHS treatment was too long. My cataract operations and laser correction on one eye were done at Chec and I have nothing but praise on the way I was treated by all staff, clinical as well as administrative. Based on this I had full trust in using Clarity, knowing that I would be treated by the same caring consultants.

Cooden Medical Group

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Dermatology, + 4 more

I had vein ablation today under Mr Mohamed Elawal - having had this prior at Uckfield Hospital, what a difference attending Cooden Medical Group was! From start to finish the whole team we're so lovely and professional! The Administration team, the Nurses and all the Consultants are so knowledgeable and really make you feel at ease. Would highly recommend this establishment for any procedures they offer!

Ms Anna Moon

Orthopaedic Surgeon

From my first visit Ms Moon has been professional in every way. I was a little nervous about getting this procedure done however Ms Moon explained every aspect of the procedure in great detail in fact in very great detail and I was totally re assured. The procedure was successful which has changed my life for the better. Amazing, I just can’t thank her enough !! 😀
