Vascular Surgery, Breast Surgery, + 37 more

Name: Patricia H. H. Patient ID: xxxxxxx Consultant: Mr Graham Bailie On Monday 8 December 2025 I visitied No. 6 Lisburn Road to have my wound reviewed. I recently had a full hip replacement with a wound on my hip with approximately 10 staples. The wound was reveiwed and reported that it was mending very satisfactorily. The original dressing on the wound was 30cm x 10cm. When the nurse was finishing examining the wound, she replaced the dressing with a smaller one - 15.5cm x 8.5 cm. She Spent some time stretching the smaller dressing to get it to cover all the staples in the wound. That evening, I experienced great pain with my wound. When I touched it through my clothing, the skin was extremely tender. Eventually, I removed the dressing to find extensive bruising at either side of the wound. It appears, that by stretching the smaller dressing to cover the staples, the wound itself had become extremely aggravated and angry. I replaced the dressing with a larger dressing. Within a few hours, the pain had subsided. However, 4 days later, the bruising is still present. I cannot understand why the nurse chose to use a smaller dressing which obviously caused great discomfort/aggravation to the wound. Having made a great recovery since the operation, this was a major setback to such a successful recovery.

Mr Aruna Munasinghe

General Surgeon

I was very impressed with Mr Munasinghe. He took the time to explain everything to myself and my wife about the procedure and go through the various options. At no time did I feel under pressure to make a decision and I was told to have a think about everything before deciding. We decided to go ahead and it’s definitely made a huge difference to my life. Mr Munasinghe did a fantastic job and put my mind at rest too, as this was the first major surgery I have had. I followed his advice regarding the diet beforehand and also his advice for aftercare and am pleased to say the surgery went very well. I would have no problem recommending Mr Munasinghe as he has been extremely kind and professional throughout and did an outstanding job. My wife and I are both very grateful to him and cannot recommend him enough. Also I must mention his Secretary Ana who has also been extremely helpful and supportive throughout. A big thank you to you both from my wife and I for making such a difference to my life.

The Joint Injection Clinic

Diagnostics & Testing, Imaging (Scans), + 4 more

A month ago I had the arthrosamid injection. I had never heard of it and initially I went online to find out how others were treating their oesteoarthritis. I found the Joint Clinic quite quickly and was amazed to read that this injection would last about 3 years rather than 3 months for the NHS cortisol injection. My knee was causing a lot of pain especially when the weather changed. I was unable to walk properly, I couldn't walk up or down stairs. My work involves walking and I really thought I would have to retire because of the pain. From day 2 of the injection, I was beginning to walk without as much pain, about 2 weeks later I wasn't limping or experiencing pain at all. It took about 3 weeks to be able to walk up and down stairs without pain. I no longer need anti inflammatory drugs (that was always hit or miss if they would work). I am very pleased with the outcome at the one month mark and I hope my knee pain is no more for years!

Mr Hosam E Matar

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Having waited 18months plus to get a diagnosis of serious issue with my left hip via my Doctor suddenly once referred to the Park Hospital things began to move quickly.Our first meeting with Mr Matar left both myself and my long suffering partner feeling that at last my problem was being treated seriously and professionally. He explained the reason for my issue, bone on bone hip, showed us the X-rays, explained the procedure and time frame of my recovery and set a date for the operation. Subsequently I was booked in for an operation, no delays and extremely well treated, being kept informed at each step. Having met again with Mr Matar he checked through my abilities and as ny recovery has gone well he discharged me. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Mr Matar to any friend or colleague who is in need of similar treatment and have nothing but gratitude to him

Willow Health

General Practice (GP), Holistic Therapy, + 2 more

I had a wonderful experience with Willow Health and Dr Colquhoun. I was confused about my treatment options and desperate for relief from my menopause symptoms, but from the very start, I was met with respect and empathy. It’s such a safe space where women can openly discuss every part of their menopause journey. I’ve now started HRT, and after just two weeks, I’m already feeling the benefits of having a treatment plan tailored to me. I’ve recommended this practice to so many women, and I’m confident anyone struggling to find the right support will find the help they need here. Thank you.

Nuffield Health The Holly Hospital

Paediatrics, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, + 10 more

Holly House and its staff are excellent. The whole atmosphere was one of cleanliness, professionalism and friendliness Particular mention should go to Mo, my nurse throughout the day. He was calm, honest and made me feel comfortable and that my concerns were listened to. A great asset to the staff. (My only complaint was I was told to arrive at 6.30am, as I was to be first on the list at 7.30am; to then be told my operation would not be until midday. I didn't even bring a book! However, I did get to watch four episodes of Frasier back-to-back, so it wasn't all bad!)

Skylight Psychiatry

Psychiatry

Overall a good experience except the wait time for the report. The clinicians were professional and friendly. The administration staff were also professional and helpful. The reports are very thorough, clear and professional. The report was over 4 weeks past the date it was expected / had been told. This proved to be extremely stressful. For me it would have been better to advertise a longer wait time and deliver it sooner rather than the other way around. Of course I accept that delays can occur. Overall a good experience and would recommend. Thank you.

The Forbes Clinic

Pain Management, Allergy Medicine, + 4 more

I had my initial integrative health assessment with Dr Anna Forbes and she put me at ease straight away. She asked thoughtful, probing questions and created a space where I felt comfortable being open and honest about who I am and why I came for the assessment. The session felt calm, structured and genuinely personalised, with clear explanations and a holistic perspective that connected the dots rather than treating things in isolation. I left feeling listened to, reassured, and confident about the next steps.

Mr Jonathan Hughes

ENT Surgeon

I recently had thyroid surgery with my doctor, and the whole experience was exceptionally positive. From the first consultation to the post-surgery follow-up, everything was explained clearly and handled with great care. The doctor made me feel comfortable and confident throughout, and the procedure itself went smoothly without any stress. I truly appreciated the professionalism and kindness of the entire medical team—it made a big difference during such an important moment.

Mr David Redfern

As always, David Redfern was very friendly and professional. Despite being a leading expert in his field, he explained everything in clear, plain language.
