Professor Greg Shaw

Urologist

i underwent a radical prostatectomy for a grade 2 c prostate carcinoma. using the da Vinci robotic system by Professor Greg Shaw. I found him to be easy to talk to and he explained my surgical and non surgical options at our first appointment. He gave me confidence and also explained the possible complications from surgery. I opted for the Robotic surgery which was expertly performed. The first post operative day I was sleepy but absolutely without discomfort. I live some distance from London and as a result I was given the option of a two night stay. The second day i did have a little discomfort to my upper back but it was easily resolved with paracetamol. I was warned by Prof Shaw that this would happen and it was due to the gas that was infused into the abdomen to help with visualisation of the prostate and to to reduce the bleeding. The mild discomfort was gone by day 4 and I was fully mobile by day 2. It is early days and the urinary catheter was removed just under a week ago and although I can feel he need to pass urine at night so I remain mostly dry the sensation has only returned a little during the day but every day is better than the previous one. In short the surgery for me was easy and the post operative course has been good. The urinary problems I was warned about and I feel sure it will be only a week further before I am dry. i would recommend Prof Shaw to you without hesitation he is a most pleasant gentleman and I have confidence in him both as a communicator and as a surgeon.

MyDoctor by Northern Health

Coaching, General Practice (GP), + 2 more

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Honestly blown away by this service I’m nearly 80 now, and I can’t even count how many doctor visits I’ve had in my life, but MyDoctor by Northern Health honestly left me a bit blown away. I wasn’t expecting much — you get used to being rushed through at my age — but I came off the call feeling like someone had finally taken the time to actually explain my own health to me. It felt different from the moment it started. No rushing, no talking over me, no making me feel like I was being dramatic. Just calm, proper care. I felt listened to in a way I haven’t in years. I actually felt like… well, like a person again, not someone they’re trying to hurry out the door. For the first time I understand what’s been setting things off, and what I need to do next time before it all gets too much. That alone is worth gold to me. I’ve been muddling along for years without this clarity. I’m honestly amazed. At my age you don’t expect to be surprised by much anymore, but this really did it. I’ll absolutely be using MyDoctor again — I wish I’d found it sooner.

OSD Healthcare

Anaesthetics, Audiology, + 47 more

I went to OSD Hemel Hempstead to get my cast removed following my rhinoplasty. When we got there, we were taken straight to the room & were left there for about 20mins for the nurse to find the equipment, upon her return the appointment was rushed and no information was provided for my aftercare. I was asking many questions however, she seemed reluctant to answer any (as simple as, how long do I need to tape for - she couldn’t answer). Following a conversation with my surgeons direct nurse, I found out that the nurse at OSD had not taped my nose correctly, nor removed the glue from my face. I felt rushed out of the appointment & not very well looked after. My surgeon came to review my nose post cast removal which was reassuring & he mentioned that the OSD nurse would provide me with all the information I’d need - she did not.

Mr Fady Sedra

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I recently saw Mr Sedra for coccyx pain. At my consultation he was very compassionate and extremely knowledgeable. After referring me for an MRI it was confirmed that I had coccydynia, which is indeed what Mr Sedra had initially suspected. Throughout the whole process I’ve found Mr Sedra to be very pleasant, professional and kind. He always listens with care. The steroid injection went really well but I had more pain than anticipated due to factors beyond Mr Sedra’s control and Mr Sedra and his team were very supportive during that time. Mr Sedra’s office team have always been extremely kind, helpful and very efficient at managing appointments and all communication. Thank you!

Cleveland Clinic Portland Place Outpatient Centre

Gastroenterology, Anaesthetics, + 10 more

Tucked away, the clinic had a bright and airy interior. A warm welcome greeted me at the door and I was swiftly directed to reception. Unlike some medical waiting areas it felt comfortable and homely. I noted they had security was at the entrance, which was reassuring. A cheerful receptionist checked me in efficiently. The waiting area was pleasant, offering a variety of hot drinks including still and sparkling water, biscuits and snacks. I asked for a taxi on leaving and the lady at reception explained they didn’t have a direct telephone number, but would get a colleague to wave one down for me. Very thoughtful.

Kernow Psychiatry

Psychiatry

From start to finish it was a worthwhile experience, we were made to feel welcome and Jemma helped us to feel at ease by her warm gentle approach. Even though we were anxious about the assessment, we were able to trust that Jemma knew and understood how my daughter was suffering and her knowledge was evident by her questions and responses. My daughter broke down in tears at the end of the assessment because at last someone understood and validated her

Mr Michael Wilson

General Surgeon

Doctor Wilson provided excellent patient centred care throughout my treatment . From the initial consultation through to post operative appointments he explained everything in a clear , concise manner in a way that was easily understood. I would highly recommend anyone who is currently experiencing issue with their Gall Bladder to get in touch and make an appointment, I’m so grateful to Dr Wilson and would not hesitate in seeing him again if needed.

The National Heart Clinic

The experience I’ve had with Dr Francesco Lo Monaco was first class. He’s been absolutely fantastic. He’s been very helpful and thorough with all my concerns. He really goes in depth and explains everything, so that we understand and every question gets answered. I am very pleased with the service I’ve received and grateful for all his help. I highly recommend Dr Francesco Lo Monaco to everyone looking for an experienced, professional Cardiologist!

Mr Simon Woodruff

Ophthalmologist

Although the prospect of eye surgery was daunting I could not have received better care throughout the whole process. Communication was clear and kind, surgery was efficient and recovery uneventful. I am extremely happy with the outcome of surgery- it is better than I dared hope for. My only regret is not having it done sooner. I would totally recommend Mr Woodruff to anyone who is contemplating correction of a ptosis/ blepharoplasty.

The London Independent Hospital (part of Circle Health Group)

Gastroenterology, Dermatology, + 8 more

Over the last 15 or so years, having had a number of treatments and surgeries in various medical specialities, I would not go anywhere other than the London Independent Hospital. They always have world class doctors in all specialities at the hospital, the staff are amazing, the nurses experienced and empathetic. I hope never to visit a hospital again, but if I do need treatment, the London Independent Hospital is at the top of my list.

Dr Bav Shergill

Dermatologist

Dr Shergills is an outstanding clinician, great communicator and very compassionate. He takes time to explain any treatment or procedure thoroughly. The outstanding results are a testament to his experience, exceptional skill and the pride he takes in his work. You’d find it hard to tell I’d had a melanoma removed from my arm. He really is world class !

Mr Helmut Zahn

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Mr Zahn has an excellent patient manner. He communicates clearly and responds to questions and concerns with patience. This was my last follow-up appointment with him after my recent surgery and my experience has been extremely positive from start to finish; i would have no hesitation in recommending Mr Zahn to others as an exceptional doctor/surgeon.

Mr James Hahnel

Mr Ramsey Chammaa

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Mr Chammaa was excellent. He asked the right questions and listened fully to the answers. He explained the issues clearly and fully. He seemed to understand me as a human being and took into account my interests and activities. He treated me as an equal. Extremely impressive.
