Dr Monika Bajaj

Paediatrician

Finding the right support for a neurodivergent child is overwhelming, emotional and often urgent. We originally sought help due to significant toileting difficulties, and through Doctify found Dr Bajaj. After previously seeing another paediatrician who looked at issues in isolation, Dr Bajaj was the first professional who truly put the whole picture together. Over the past four to five years, she has supported our child through ADHD diagnosis, careful medication titration, holistic reassessment and later an autism diagnosis following specialist ADOS assessment with another professional. Her approach is direct and thorough, always focused on what is best for the child. Starting medication was frightening due to stigma and fear around side effects, but Dr Bajaj guided us carefully with proper monitoring, regular reviews and shared-care communication with our GP once stabilised. After trialling different medications, our child is now on Elvanse, which has made a really positive difference to focus, calmness and daily functioning. Private care has not been easy. It involved long travel, significant cost, juggling family pressures and at times challenging admin processes. However, the hospitals Dr Bajaj works with, particularly The Portland Hospital, have been consistently kind and professional, and Dr Bajaj has even extended clinics to fit our child in when needed, which we are very grateful for. While her style is firm and very to the point, I have never doubted that she genuinely prioritises children’s wellbeing and long-term outcomes. Our child is calmer, more able to engage in learning and daily life, and far less overwhelmed than before. The journey has been hard, but the impact on our child’s quality of life has been significant. I would recommend Dr Bajaj to parents looking for thorough, responsible and genuinely child-centred ADHD and autism support, with the honest understanding that private care comes with practical and financial challenges.

Dr Muhammed A Ottayil

Paediatrician

Dr Muhammed A Ottayil has been absolutely exceptional in his care and support of my daughter, Lyla Rose. From our very first appointment, it was clear that he is an extremely knowledgeable and highly experienced consultant paediatrician, but what truly sets him apart is the way he combines that expertise with genuine compassion and patience. Dr Ottayil is incredibly thorough. He takes the time to carefully review every detail, explains findings clearly, and ensures that nothing is overlooked. He never rushes appointments and always makes space for questions, no matter how small, taking care to explain things in a way that is easy to understand and reassuring as a parent. His depth of knowledge is evident, and his clinical judgement inspires complete confidence. Throughout our time working with him, he has been consistently supportive and approachable. He listens attentively, takes concerns seriously, and treats both child and parent with respect and kindness. As a parent, it makes an enormous difference to feel heard and understood, and Dr Ottayil excels at this. His calm and reassuring manner has been invaluable during what can otherwise be a very stressful experience. He has been truly amazing to deal with at every stage — professional, compassionate, and dedicated. I feel extremely grateful that my daughter has been under his care, and I would not hesitate to recommend Dr Muhammed A Ottayil to any parent seeking outstanding paediatric support. He is an exceptional doctor and a credit to his profession.

Mr Graham Lawton

Plastic Surgeon

I recently had surgery on my right hand middle finger to remove a blood vessel malformation, and I couldn’t be happier with the care and results I received from Dr Lawton. From the outset, he was incredibly calm and reassuring, which immediately put me at ease. The procedure was clearly explained and it was obvious that a great deal of thought and planning had gone into it. The surgery itself was meticulously performed, and my recovery has been excellent so far. Any questions I had were answered thoroughly, whether they felt silly or not, which made the whole experience even more reassuring. I felt completely confident throughout the entire process and very well looked after. I am extremely grateful for his skill, professionalism and manner, and would highly recommend him to anyone needing similar treatment.

This is truly a very pleasant clinic. All staff put you at ease and treat you very well. I had an upper endoscopy performed by Dr Craig Mowat. He is a really patient, polite and conscientious professional man who listened to my concerns and talked me through them. He was very thorough and suggested how I could relive my symptoms mean time until my procedure, which was only a few weeks later. He explained exactly what would happen. The experience was very calm and I was put at ease. Dr Mowat told me of his findings immediately after the procedure and called me to discuss biopsy results a couple of weeks later. The whole experience was calm and quickly put my fears to rest. Thank you very much for lifting a huge weight off my mind - I can now get back to enjoying life!

10/10 experience. We had our 10 year old son assessed for ADHD. From the moment i called to enquire about the process and what are the steps involved to the actually assessment, everyone has been amazing. Steven in the front office walked me through the entire process, what to expect, costings etc. he was polite, kind and very professional. Dr Hollie Hearfield who did the assessment was lovely. She was so good with our son, she explained everything to us as to what the next steps are. I cannot recommend you enough to others who might be thinking of going private. Its an overwhelming decision to make and it has been nothing but informative and easy with Berkley's. Keep up the amazing service that your staff deliver x

Mr John Terrace

General Surgeon

I am highly satisfied with the care and treatment I received from Mr Terrace during my recent hospital visit. He was very friendly and courteous with a pleasant bedside manner, while at the same time being very professional. I knew from the outset that I’d chosen the best consultant to carry out my procedure. Everything was clearly explained and I felt very confident that the necessary surgery would go well, which indeed it did. I am delighted with the way I’m feeling just one week after my surgery. I would highly recommend this consultant to anyone requiring my type of surgery. Overall my visit was a 10 out of 10 experience and I am very grateful to Mr Terrace and his team.

had a fantastic experience at The London Clinic. The staff were warm, professional, and incredibly attentive from start to finish. The facilities are spotless and very comfortable, which made the whole process much easier. I underwent a gastroscopy and colonoscopy here, and everything was handled smoothly and with great care. The nursing team were especially kind and reassuring throughout. The London Clinic is exceptionally well‑organised, and the level of patient care is truly outstanding. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for high‑quality medical treatment in a supportive environment.

Dr Peter Cowburn

Cardiologist

I had an extremely worthwhile appointment discussion with Dr Cowburn regarding my progressively deteriorating condition and the reasons for same. Dr Cowburn checked me out, including ECG, reviewed potential options and we agreed a plan to move forward, Dr Cowburn will also investigate the potential for me to participate in a forthcoming 'blind' trial of a new drug for mitigating the effects of long-termm heart failure. As always, it was a pleasure to see Dr Cowburn, I am very happy with the care he provides and his 'to the point but friendly' approach.

Mr Tev Aho

Urologist

I recently had a HoLEP procedure under the care of Mr Tev Aho. He is an excellent clinician - and I highly recommend him to anyone experiencing symptoms from prostatic hypertrophy. I found his assessment of my problem to be very thorough and thoughtful. I had great confidence in his skill to address my problem. I have had a very positive outcome. The operation has resolved all my urological symptoms. The recovery took a couple of weeks and was entirely in line with the detailed/helpful information I recieved before hand. Thank you.

HCA Healthcare UK The Harley Street Clinic

Breast Surgery, Cardiology, + 9 more

Overall the experience was excellent, with one frustrating aspect - initially I was told that my surgery would be at 15:00, and that I should attend the hospital at 13:00. A couple of days before the surgery, I was told that the surgery time had changed to 14:15 and I should attend at 12:15. I did so, and was then kept waiting for over an hour in the lobby as the room was not ready - giving the impression that it was unnecessary for us to have come early. A little frustrating, however the staff were incredibly friendly and kind.

Dr. Fiona Vij

Emergency Medicine Doctor, General Practitioner

I would definitely recommend Dr Vij. The consultation with her was pleasant yet thorough. It was clear that she had read my history and was (painlessly!) able to lead our discussion to fill in any blanks. She managed to elicit and clarify my aims and expectations for the consultation, and then set out to fulfil them in a professional and courteous manner. After the consultation, her analysis and response was, again, thorough, professional and easy to understand, with clear identification of possible next steps.

Dr Sonal Singh

Dermatologist

Dr Singh was very empathetic and immediately put my daughter at ease. I have never seen her speak so openly about her acne with anyone except her Mum! Dr Singh's explanation of the different treatment options were very clear, and she explained very clearly why she had chosen one over the other. She also followed the appointment up, checking in with us to see how the treatment is going. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to other parents of teens with skin problems.

My mother has been under the care of Prof. Wardley for the past three years, and he has truly been a lifesaver. He has been exceptional—always ready to help, endlessly patient, and incredibly reassuring. His calm demeanor and vast knowledge have given our family great confidence and peace of mind. He has always been accommodating and attentive to all of our requests, and we are deeply grateful for his care.

On arrival we were greeted by a lovely nurse and put at ease. She took Jessicia's weight and height and seated us in the waiting area. Dr Majeed Jawad was lovely as ever with Jessica. He is very caring and has a brilliant bedside manner. He is very professional and thorough and listens to our concerns/questions too. Many thanks again to all the staff at Paediatric Diagnostics.

Nuffield Health Parkside Hospital

Breast Surgery, Dermatology, + 15 more

Very happy with my consultant and the nursing staff but (as I have previously said in feedback) that waiting area (on the first floor) at Parkside really needs improvement. The reception staff are unfriendly, talk noisily amongst themselves, the coffee machine was broken today, there are sirens (or alarms or phone rings?) going off regularly which is not good for anxious patients
