Fitzrovia Suite

Obstetrics & Gynaecology

We opted for private care at UCLH because we wanted the birth experience to be as positive as possible. As a medically uncomplicated patient I felt that I may not receive much attention or time on an overstretched NHS ward. I also had some anxieties around birth (as a healthcare professional myself) and felt reassured to be receiving consultant-led care, from a clinician with whom I was able to build a trusting relationship. Shalini provided exceptional care from 32 weeks pregnancy and after delivery. She got to know me and my partner, and understood our priorities and concerns. I had previously found it hard to make decisions around birth. Shalini provided us with evidence, data and her experience - this empowered us to make our decisions. She spent a lot of time with us and brought great care, empathy and kindness to her practice, as well as her excellent clinical skills. When we had questions, fears or anxieties Shalini was able to reassure us, both with her kindness and her experience and expertise. The care she provides is holistic and individualised - she advocated for me in many ways and empowered me to advocate for myself too. We had an elective caesarean at 39 weeks. The surgery was pain free and crucially for me, I felt confident and safe - something that was not natural for me in approaching birth. Shalini was close at hand to care for us before and afterwards. I made an excellent recovery and have healed extremely well. I recommend Dr Shalni in the strongest terms to mothers and families looking for private care at UCLH. Shalini is passionate about obstetrics, her patients and practising medicine. It is a great privilege to be cared for by a clinician at the top of her field, who clearly cares deeply about her patients.

Mr Samuel Jayaraj

ENT Surgeon

The care I have received from Mr Jayaraj has been exceptional; from the minute my referral went through the process has been seamless and wonderfully efficient. I have suffered for decades with breathing difficulties and fruitless trips to my own GP practice. After eliminating nasal drops as a sufficient solution Mr Jayaraj advised I was a candidate for surgery. Mr Jayaraj has been very generous with his time, he made me feel safe and heard on the day of surgery and the aftercare has been incredibly thorough too. The outcome is already an overwhelming success; I am thrilled to be breathing normally for the first time since childhood following septoplasty and sinus surgery. As an unexpected bonus my sleep and anxiety has improved and 7 weeks after the procedure my recurrent sinus pain no longer seems to be an issue. I cannot recommend and thank Mr Jayaraj and his team enough! He is a genuinely kind, friendly and compassionate gentleman who ensured the best possible treatment plan for my improved health with outstanding results..

Mr Simon Jennings

Orthopaedic Surgeon

After a fall abroad I had surgery to mend a broken hip. Months later, the knee that I had twisted in the fall, refused to bend despite periods of rest, physio and even a steroid injection. Following an MRI to see whether there was any structural cause of the extreme stiffness, Mr Jennings recommended a manipulation of the knee under anaesthetic to release some of the stiffness, and to inject it with local anaesthetic and steroid to control pain and enhance recovery. As forewarned, the MUA and injection was immediately followed by intensive physiotherapy. The very quick procedure was successful, and I have regained much of the mobility I had lost since the accident, massively improving my quality of life. Mr Jennings is easy to talk to and has a very confident and reassuring manner. He provided clear explanations of the problem and his plan to treat it. Mr Jennings clearly has the knowledge and experience to identify less common problems. Thank you so much.

I received warm, well informed professional attention throughout my care at St Anthony's Hospital; from outpatients through to discharge. The room was clean, well heated and ventilated, equipment checked and the armchairs comfortable. The unit was quiet. Nursing staff answered call bells promptly and with kindness and a smile. No request was considered a problem. Their level of knowledge and professionalism was excellent along with the standard of care. Physiotherapy care was also excellent and given with respect to my individual needs. Recovery staff were informative and reassuring. Excellent care there too. I include catering staff who also took care in their work. A few glitches with the electronics on the bed and the new bathroom which received prompt attention - the unit has been recently renovated.

Mr Samit Unadkat

ENT Surgeon

I had an excellent experience during my recent ENT appointment with Dr. Samit Unadkat. From start to finish, the visit was smooth, professional, and reassuring, Dr. Unadkat was exceptional, knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely caring. He took the time to listen to my concerns, explained everything in a clear and understandable way, and made sure I felt comfortable throughout the appointment. His thorough approach and calm demeanor immediately put me at ease. I left with a clear understanding of my diagnosis and treatment plan, and I truly felt that I was in expert hands. I highly recommend Dr. Samit Unadkat to anyone in need of a skilled and compassionate ENT specialist.

Dr. Krista Farrell, exemplifies the highest standards of clinical excellence. Her demeanour was consistently warm, respectful, and empathetic. She listened attentively to our concerns regarding our son and promptly arranged all requisite scans, tests, and evaluations. During the subsequent consultation, Dr. Farrell delivered a clear, thorough, and meticulously articulated explanation of the findings, addressing each of our questions with precision and care.

Couldn't praise Mr Tang anymore. From the moment I met him, kind, knowledgeable, calm, and I felt at ease even though I ripped my bicep less than a day before meeting him and was in a serious amount of pain. There wasn't a question he couldn't answer, and the surgery was as painless as it could have been. He did say he has never seen a bicep recover so quickly, which I am very proud of; however, I think that was more him than me. Thank you again.

The London Clinic

Physiotherapy, Dermatology, + 13 more

The London Clinic offers such a comfortable and clean environment, clinical in all the right ways, but still homely and warm. It feels far less “hospital-like” than most medical settings, which really helped me relax. The staff were all friendly, welcoming, and genuinely approachable from the moment I walked in. And the unlimited coffee on tap was a lovely touch! Overall, a calm, high quality clinic experience that made a big difference to my visit.

Dr Chitrabhanu Ballav

Diabetes & Endocrinology Specialist

I recently had an endocrinology consultation with Dr Ballav and found him to be easy to talk to, professional, direct, and thorough. My blood test results and follow-up testing were delivered promptly via electronic communication, as requested, avoiding any postal delays. His PA provided efficient follow-up, ensuring that consultation appointments were arranged smoothly and without difficulty. Overall, the process was clear, timely, and reassuring.

Unblocked Thinking

Coaching

Working with Jo has been transformative for my son. She brings together lived experience and exceptional communication, creating a space where he feels completely at ease and truly heard. Jo’s ability to guide him toward recognising his strengths has led to powerful moments of realisation and practical strategies that he feels ownership over. We’ve seen meaningful and lasting improvements in his wellbeing and independence as a result

Dr Thomas Kwok

Ophthalmologist

Dr Thomas Kwok was professional and courteous. We did not have much “communication”, but what there was, was perfectly adequate - I knew not to move - and we didn’t need to have a conversation. I am extremely pleased with the outcome of my first eye experience and am also pleased that he is nominated as the person who will be doing the other eye in three week’s time, as I know how successful the first has been.

OSD Healthcare

Pain Management, Breast Surgery, + 47 more

My experience once in the practice was very good. Staff friendly and professional. What I found very stressful beforehand was locating the property. The letter that I received from the NHS gave an address of One Medical House which I could not find on any signage. I drove around for 10 mins and was then worried that I would miss my appointment. The letter should be updated to state OSD Healthcare.

Professor Michael Gatzoulis

Cardiologist

Prof Gatzoulis gave me a lot of confidence for my future. We discussed my case and symptoms thoroughly and he explained multiple options I could take for the long term and reassured that I was in good hands for all options. Furthermore, he provided me with a clear route for improving my health independantly, whilst I wait for the next appointment. He's a knowledable, amicable professional.

Dr Benjamin Jacobs

Paediatrician

I highly recommend Dr Jacobs. He spent a lot of time thoroughly assessing my daughter and was great at communicating with both me and my 11-year-old. He was also efficient in arranging an MRI scan and promptly followed up with the results. I would definitely recommend Dr Jacobs for his kind, friendly, and thorough approach as well as clear communication.

I had a zoom meeting, so can't really comment on cleanliness or the physical practice. The assessor was amazing, really friendly and took things at my pace. I love the format, ending on a positive after almost 2 hours talking about all the ways I felt like I'm failing at life really made a difference to my outlook the rest of the day.

Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital Private Care

Orthopaedic Surgery

The Hospital was probably the best I have been in for an operation. Everything was clean and well organised. The staff were very friendly and professional. I felt confident that all the different elements were working together efficiently. The food was very good. I cannot think of anything which could have done better.
