Dr. Arif Hussenbux

Gastroenterologist

Dr Arif Hussenbux is easily one of the best gastroenterologists I have ever met. From the very first consultation, he showed a rare combination of deep medical expertise, genuine compassion, and a calm, reassuring manner that immediately put me at ease. He took the time to listen to my full history, understood the complexity of my symptoms, and explained everything in a way that was clear and easy to understand. He reviewed all my scans, tests, and previous investigations in detail and connected things that other doctors had overlooked. During my procedures (gastroscopy and colonoscopy), he was extremely professional, gentle, and thorough. His explanation of the results afterward was outstanding — he made sure I fully understood what was happening with my health, why I was feeling the way I do, and exactly what the next steps should be. What stood out the most was his honesty and clarity. He didn’t rush me into unnecessary treatments. Instead, he created a structured, sensible plan and reassured me at every stage. When an adrenal nodule was found, he immediately arranged the correct referral to ensure nothing was missed. He genuinely cares about his patients, and that makes all the difference. I feel safe in his hands, confident in his plan, and extremely grateful for his care. Highly recommended — a world-class doctor and a true professional.

St Joseph’s Hospital

I have visited St Joseph’s a number of times for consultations and have always had a good experience. However as a day case today there was quite a wait for the appointment to begin. It was uncomfortable in the waiting area with a cold draught blowing in through sliding doors. The letter stated the admission was at 5pm but were only called in at 5.40pm. The procedure went well and the nurses/assistants were very friendly. The facility was clean and clutter free. However the consultant then went into this busy waiting area and informed my relative, who accompanied me, with the results of the procedure in front of other patients and staff. This was highly inappropriate and the hospital needs to ensure there are private areas to discuss medical information in future. For a privately paying service one would expect there to be better controls and more discretion to be provided for medical procedures.

Subject: Feedback on My Recent Epidural Spine Injection with Dr. Anthony Hammond Dear hospital Team, I recently had an epidural spine injection with Dr. Anthony Hammond, and I want to express my sincere appreciation for the excellent care I received. Dr. Hammond was exceptionally friendly, professional, and reassuring throughout the procedure. The entire team was also very kind, helpful, and attentive, which made me feel comfortable and well looked after. I had a similar injection previously in the USA, and I must say the care and overall experience at your hospital were far superior. Everything was done with great attention and professionalism, and I left feeling confident and optimistic about my recovery.

I was very apprehensive about getting both of my eyes done at the same time. I cant believe how easy and painless it was ,all of the staff were amazing in looking after me and putting me at ease. Having 24 hr support was amazing ,my concerns were addressed quickly . If only everything was as easy as this ,within 3 days i could see perfectly ,i never realised how much of a difference it would make . From my consultant ,nursing staff, opthamologists, domestic staff and receptionist they went above and beyond in their care. Nothing was too much bother. Dont hesitate to go ,you will be amazed .

Mrs Catherine Rabess

Dietitians

I felt in such safe hands with Caff - it was clear how skilled she is in the area of gastroenterology-specific conditions. Her warmth and empathy put me at ease straight away. There was no need for me to feel embarrassed discussing my bowel issues. She took time to fully understand my situation and challenges, and therefore created suitable dietary plans alongside me, with tailored adaptations, so it felt personalised, realistic and viable. Caff has been an integral part of my recovery journey. She is a rare gem in the healthcare profession.

Mr Nashat Siddiqui

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I consulted Mr Siddiqui for a surgical repair to my torn rotator cuff, which had brought my recreational activities to a stand still. It was to be my first ever experience of needing surgery in 70 years. I can't speak highly enough of his professionalism, technical expertise, positive attitude and equally importantly patient empathy both at the initial consultation and on the day of my surgery. The surgery was successful, and I am now on the physio program, but Mr Siddiqui continues to follow progress. Thank you.

Dr Matthew Balerdi

Cardiologist

I was very impressed with Dr. Balerdi. He took plenty of time to understand my situation and to assess what my problem could be. Dr. Balerdi answered all my questions and had an empathetic approach which I found most helpful. Also, because of his in depth knowledge and experience, I found him very reassuring and a person I could totally rely on to give sound advice. I would definitely recommend other people with heart problems to consult Dr. Balerdi.

Mr Austin McCormick

Ophthalmologist

I am absolutely thrilled with the results of my blepharoplasty. I was extremely nervous about the process and was so scared it would change the way I looked, however I really shouldn’t have been. The care I received was second to none and my results have more than surpassed my expectations. I still look like me but the clock has been turned back a number of years. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Mr McCormick. Thank you for giving me my confidence back.

Mr Robert Gleeson

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I recently saw Mr Gleeson for my one year consultation following a total knee replacement. I was very pleased to tell him that it has been brilliant. From day one I was pleased to have good flexibility in the knee which quickly improved further with physiotherapy. Mr Gleeson gave me great confident from our first meeting. I felt that he cared and put me at ease. Information about the procedure was clearly given and questions invited.

The nursing care was faultless - I could not have asked for a better team of consultant, nurses, doctors, anaesthetist, and physiotherapists. The facilities are top tier (and the food is truly excellent too….a big thank you to the catering staff!). In short, my stay was very comfortable and I felt safe and well looked after throughout. Thank you to all the staff at Spire Regency for making my time with you an absolute pleasure!

Dr Bav Shergill

Dermatologist

Everything went very well, and I am very happy with the outcome. The fact that I managed to stay calm during the whole procedure is due to the care of all the staff. The scars seem to be doing fine - a little bit of itchiness, but I assume that's part of the healing process. (By the way, I filled in the short survey on paper when I returned to East Grinstead, a week after the operation - I left it with the receptionist.)

Incredibly professional set-up. Staff were friendly, welcoming, informative making you feel you were in good hands. Everything was calm and relaxed. I have used another consultant in the past but always felt I was inconveniencing him with my queries. That was not the case with Dr Muirhead and Sam who took time to listen to my concerns, examine and then treat. An exemplary service that I would wholeheartedly recommend.

I arrived at 9.05 for an appointment at 9.30 am. Checked in and waited approx 3 minutes and was called by Mr Sapare and escorted to his room. After an examination and explanation of my before and after surgery he gave me advice on how to proceed to full recovery. I was back in my companions car by 9.20. I would recommend any one if offered the the chance to attend the Spire Hospital to go and get treated there.

Mr James Carmichael

Orthopaedic Surgeon

My mum had a great experience with Mr Carmichael. He took the time to thoroughly explain all her treatment options and made sure she understood exactly what was going on. He was kind, patient, and reassuring throughout the entire process. We also appreciate the excellent continuity of care—he’s consistently been available to answer any questions and provide support whenever needed. Highly recommended!

Everyone was friendly and the place clean but one of the receptions in radiology was very load speak so you heard all her conversations and calls clear as day. You are asked to to arrive 15 minutes prior to your appointment but I did have to do anything just wait long as I didn’t get in on time and I can only guess they ran late as two people arrived after and went in before me.

Brit is an absolutely phenomenal physio. She is incredible intelligent and has such an amazing understanding of the body. She is always thorough to understand the deep cause of the problem and provides clear tangible plan for how to recover. She has recently been helping me with nerve damage in my glute /hip and seeing her has been invaluable. Would 10/10 recommend
