I have recently had a hysterectomy performed by Professor Bunkheila. The operation was a great success and I cannot thank the Professor enough for his compassion and care from my initial appointment through to the post op consultation. Professor Bunkheila was the nicest gentleman to deal with, listened to all my concerns and was reassuring and professional when discussing all the pros and cons to having such a procedure. His kind, caring manner made me feel so comfortable and after many years of extreme pain and debilitating medical conditions, I felt finally that someone was actually listening to me and could make a difference. I was very poorly at my initial consultation and now feel 100% recovered and it has been truly life changing. Professor Bunkheila and his medical team of anaesthetists were wonderful on the two occasions of my surgery as I was very nervous, but both times they were so reassuring. All the staff were very kind and efficient, my personal ward room was clean and the catering was very good. I would also like to thank a particular gentleman called Anil who performed my pre operative assessment blood tests, I am very needle phobic and was terrified but he ensured that it was done swiftly and with such kindness towards me, I was so grateful.

VISIO Health

Ophthalmology

I had a very good experience with Visio Health when I had recent laser treatment following cataract surgery on both eyes with Ms Sandhu. The cataract surgery, which took place in hospital in July and October, has been very successful. I no longer need glasses after having vision corrective lenses. And I hadn’t realised quite how blurred and sepia my sight had become. My vision is now very clear and bright. It really has positively impacted my life. Everything looks like it did back when I was young. It’s so much more cheerful than that blurry, yellow sight that I had grown so used to. And I am so much more confident when driving. No more night glare. I was really apprehensive and anxious about cataract surgery. So much so that it was decided that I would have the procedure under general anaesthetic. But I can honestly say that despite all the worry the end result is better than I could have imagined. The laser treatment at Visio to improve my sight further with one session of laser treatment was totally painless, very straightforward and uncomplicated. The clinic was very well organised and the staff were all lovely. A very good experience.

Mr John (Ian) Jenkins

General Surgeon

I was fortunate and privileged to be introduced to Ian Jenkins in Jan 2021 after a referral from colleagues at St Marks Hospital, North London. Having been diagnosed with rectal cancer in 2020 and undergone pre surgery radiotherapy and chemotherapy through the NHS, due to COVID backlogs with NHS procedures, we decided to go privately for future treatment and surgery - one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life. Through Ian's skill and professionalism over the last 5 yrs of many surgical and personal consultations and referrals, I am still cancer free and living a relatively normal life with my family in retirement - something I feared, in the early days post diagnosis, I was unlikely to have. Ian has not only, literally, saved my life but also given me a quality of life that I could never of dreamed of after my devastating cancer news back in 2020. I will always be eternally grateful to Ian and his team for his brilliance then and now as he continues to support me and my family with regard to my future health.

Attended for a blood test. I’ve had multiple bad experiences with blood tests over the years. This is primarily because I have very small and narrow veins which disappear with the touch of a needle..☹️ I find the whole experience extremely painful and distressing … I explained all of this to Debbie, the wonderful and kind nurse who attended me. She was brilliant! Totally put me at ease and was incredibly supportive and gentle. I was definitely a challenge for her as my veins were completely uncooperative per usual. But she took her time and used the smallest needle possible to minimise any discomfort. She succeeded in the end and managed to get enough blood for a full blood count!! Miraculous! I am so very grateful to Debbie for turning a potentially very upsetting and negative experience into a positive outcome. She has helped me to regain a little more confidence in having my blood taken again. Thank you Debbie! 😊

Mr Shibu Krishnan

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I had a knee replacement, all I had to do was follow the instructions of the medical staff, who were all very professional, clear but above all kind. Mr Krishnan (the surgeon) did a wonderful job, this is a painful procedure but the nurses made sure relief was only a bell push away. I was given exercises to do that were gradually increased as the days went on. Once home I followed all the instructions and exercises given and regained full mobility by the end of six weeks. The hospital staff worked as a team and were very supportive, kind and positive. I can’t praise my surgeon enough and all the wonderful staff. Because of their treatment I made a textbook recovery in the shortest time possible.

CAS Medical

General Practice (GP), Primary Care

I had an outstanding experience with Dr Socklingham. From the very beginning, he was warm, caring, and genuinely attentive, taking the time to listen carefully without ever making me feel rushed. His communication was clear and reassuring, and I felt fully involved in every step of the decision-making process. What truly stood out was the rapid feedback and proactive approach to treatment planning — I received timely follow-up, clear explanations, and a well-thought-out plan that gave me real confidence. The consultation was delivered with professionalism, empathy, and efficiency, and I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone seeking high-quality, patient-centred care

Dr. Bismeen Jadoon was absolutely exceptional. She demonstrated the highest level of professionalism, clinical knowledge, and adherence to best practice standards throughout my appointment. What truly distinguished her was her empathy and ability to genuinely understand my situation. She took the time to explain the treatment clearly, thoroughly, and with great care, ensuring I felt informed and reassured at every stage. I left the appointment feeling confident, supported, and extremely well cared for. I sincerely wish healthcare systems were consistently supported by professionals of this calibre.

This was my second cataract operation on my left eye having had a very successful cataract removal and lenses replacement on my right eye performed by Mr Sian a couple of months earlier at Musgrove Park. Mr Sian’s skills , patience and care are exemplary. The outcome hss exceeded all my expectations. For information I initially saw Mr Sian at the Nuffield and had my resulting procedures at Musgrove Park due to the complexity of both eyes. My comments apply mainly to Musgrove although are also applicable to treatment received by Mr Sian at the Nuffield Taunton.

My total knee replacement at The Park Hospital was an excellent experience. Mr Hosam E. Matar, anaesthetic specialist, theatre team provided outstanding surgical care with clear explanations and reassurance throughout. The nursing team were attentive and supportive, helping manage pain and early mobility. The hospital was clean, calm, and well‑organised, making the whole process smooth from admission to discharge. Overall, I felt well looked after and confident in my recovery, and I would highly recommend The Park Hospital for joint replacement surgery.

Ophthalmology

I was very apprehensive about eye surgery, but Tom Cudrnak Ophthalmology put my mind at ease. The procedure was painless, swift, and professional. I felt completely safe and supported, especially under Roni's warm, friendly guidance and that of the other team members. I felt in safe hands from the very first consultation to the final follow-up. It was a fantastic process. The results of the eye operation are miraculous and life-changing, and it means so much to me to have my sight back, thanks to you.

Dr Deb (Debabrata) Majumdar

What an amazing doctor. Dr Deb is very thorough and caring, and has helpful, professional and responsive support staff too. I had an endoscopy and colonoscopy. I was so nervous but he made me feel very relaxed and in safe hands. The process was very smooth, dignified and I felt extremely well cared for. The results were explained carefully and he really took the time to answer my questions. I highly recommend Dr Deb, thank you very much.

Mr Peter Driscoll

General Surgeon

As I suffer with acute anxiety about medical procedures, it was vital that I found someone who would be sympathetic to my feelings and dealt with carefully. Peter Driscoll was exactly the right person for me. Clearly a highly skilled and experienced professional, he set my mind at ease and tailored his interactions such that I felt wholly comfortable with the procedure. It was an excellent experience and I am very grateful to him.

Mr Gurdip Shergill

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Mr Shergill was very pleased with my performance after 7 weeks it did show that one must do the exercises after a knee replacement. He thought my knee must now be back to nearly 100 degrees and he was very pleased with my walking. And he said I was well advanced compared to some patients. Very pleased with the work he has done on my knee and especially as I only waited 6 weeks from the first consultation. He has now discharged me

Mr James Barnes

General Surgeon

Mr Barnes is very patient and kind. He has a calm and caring bedside manner and has always put me at ease during consultations and pre/post-surgery. I have had the utmost trust in him throughout the kidney transplant process. I feel very fortunate to have had Mr Barnes as my surgeon as everything has gone so smoothly for me.
