Mr Mark Farndon

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Upon rupturing my achilles tendon, I spoke with several specialists and surgeons regarding the best move forward. I am a 33 year old male who's life revolves around physical activity, so trusting the Doctor and the proposed treatment was a huge deal for me. Within a few minutes of meeting Mr Farndon, I was confident I wanted to work with him. Previous specialists had immediately pushed me towards either a conservative or surgical approach, and the information they gave me was weighted towards the approach they clearly wanted me to take. Mark's approach was completely different. He gave me all the pros and cons to each approach and shared information that clearly considered my age, lifestyle and the sort of recovery I was hopeful for. Once I had this information he made it clear that the decision was mine, which he then gave me the confidence that this was a good decision. The surgery itself was first class. I have (unfortunately) had other major surgeries for sporting injuries, and everything about the procedure and follow up appointments was done to the upmost level of professionalism. I am now 5 months post surgery and already able to do single leg calf raises to the same level as my non-injured leg - a big test in return to full recovery and ability to start running again and the final phase of my rehabilitation program. I couldn't be happier with how the surgery has gone, and couldn't recommend Mark more highly for his professionalism, expertise and character. Thank you Mark and the wider Circle Health Group team.

Miss Eleni Nikita

Ophthalmologist

Had an eye surgery. Both Eleni Nikita and the anesteologist were fantastic, explaining everything that would happen in precise details. I felt very confident about what was going to happen. I initially went to Moorfields to get a second opinion about my glaucoma, expecting exactly the same advice as I got with my usual opthalmologist. It was one of the best decision I made: Eleni Nikita explained me the situation in great details, and told me about the more recent micro invasive surgery options, so that in the end, I was able to avoid the classical big surgery and went through a lighter option. And then the day of this lighter surgery, everything was precise, each step clearly explained, and I felt very confident that it would go very well. Which it did. All in all, I feel so lucky to have benefited from Miss Nikita up to date expertise and precision. Thanks again !

Mr Onur Berber

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I had surgery to fix my broken wrist. I am a dentist and I wanted the best surgeon in the game! Mr Berber was very accommodating, ensuring my surgery was performed within 6 days of the injury. I also live away from London so he was able to have video consultations in the evenings for me. The communication was excellent along the way and he took the time to answer all my questions. The surgery went extremely well and he even shared all the photos and x-rays with me for my records. The follow up was prompt and timely, and he even spent extra time with me despite my late arrival to the appointment. Mr Berber is a skilled surgeon and has excellent bedside manner. He was kind and friendly. I would not hesitate in recommending him to anyone! Thank you Onur!

Mr George Ampat

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I went to see Mr Ampat over long term back pain i have been suffering with, he was very clear to me throughout the appointment and explained to me the process of what will be the best steps going forward. There was a slight delay to the appointment itself however it was clearly outlined to me by the staff prior so i has no issues, none the less Mr Ampat was more than apologetic which was very appreciated. He was very helpful and polite the entire appointment, at first I was nervous going in as I am a little bit scared of seeing Dr's (childish might that be) but Mr Ampat was a pleasure and it gave me nothing but sheer confidence when seeing him in the future :)

Mr Christopher Sutton

General Surgeon

My wife and I were well looked after from the moment we entered Woodland hospital. The reception lady was very helpful and pleasant. We had arrived a little early but it wasn’t long before Mr Sutton personally met us in the Waiting Area and escorted us to his Room. It was nice to see Emma, the Nurse I had spoken to previously. I was examined, diagnosed and a plan of action organised very efficiently and all questions we had answered thoroughly and we felt reassured. We actually left the Hospital a couple of minutes after our original appointment time. We were very impressed with the whole experience.

Dr. Adnan Darr

ENT Surgeon

I couldn’t be more grateful to Dr. Darr and his team. From my very first appointment, I was treated with the utmost respect, care, and professionalism. The service I received from start to finish was exceptional. Undergoing surgery can be a daunting and overwhelming experience, but I was kept fully informed throughout the entire process and provided with all the information I needed to feel prepared and confident. My surgery has truly been life-changing so far, and I’m eagerly looking forward to my 12-week follow-up to see the final results.

Harley Street Specialist Hospital

Orthopaedic Surgery, Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, + 8 more

Had a right hip arthroscopy at Harley Street, and the whole experience was incredible. The scans leading up to the operation were immediately available, and surgery was booked at short notice. All the staff were incredibly friendly and made me feel comfortable and at ease about the operation. Post-operation care was brilliant, with physio and medications being arranged quickly, and overnight care being arranged as well. Unbelievably smooth experience

Spire Cambridge Lea Hospital

Breast Surgery, Ear Nose & Throat Surgery (ENT/Otolaryngology), + 19 more

Overall my first appointment at Spire Lea hospital was a satisfactory experience. At the reception I was quickly registered as an insurance patient. The waiting time was not very long. The duration of the appointment was long enough to cover all my questions, explain my problem and get a gynaecology examination by the doctor with help of a female assistant. The doctor explained to me a treatment to follow to alleviate my symptoms.

St Joseph’s Hospital

Physiotherapy, Audiology, + 22 more

I had a gastroscopy at St Joseph's and was extremely nervous due to a bad experience at another hospital some years ago. Dr Czajkowski and team were absolutely amazing, reassuring me and helping to put me at ease as soon as I arrived. I need not have worried as the procedure was carried out so professionally with minimal discomfort. I won't hesitate to recommend St Joseph's to anyone I know needing that procedure, or similar.

Spire Washington Hospital

I arrived at 9.05 for an appointment at 9.30 am. Checked in and waited approx 3 minutes and was called by Mr Sapare and escorted to his room. After an examination and explanation of my before and after surgery he gave me advice on how to proceed to full recovery. I was back in my companions car by 9.20. I would recommend any one if offered the the chance to attend the Spire Hospital to go and get treated there.

HCA UK at The Shard

General Practice (GP), Obstetrics & Gynaecology

Unfortunately there was a problem with the booking systems at reception which meant checking in was delayed due to a queue that had formed. However the staff were very helpful and trying to do all they could to inform patients of the problem. The nursing station seemed very busy and understaffed, there was a delay in urine testing due to this and I waited 30minutes just to be provided with a sample jar and bag.

Spire Gatwick Park Hospital

Vascular Surgery, Breast Surgery, + 20 more

I had knee surgery at Gatwick Spire Hospital and was thoroughly impressed. The staff were professional, kind, and attentive throughout my stay. My surgeon explained everything clearly and the nursing team provided excellent care. The facilities were spotless and comfortable, and even the meals were well-prepared. I felt safe, supported, and well looked after—highly recommend for anyone needing surgery.

I was at the clinic for a 6 weeks post surgery appointment. All the staff were very welcoming and friendly. I saw Kevin Bryceland. He showed me the xray of my new hip, explained the surgery and checked my progress. He was happy to answer any questions and explained the next steps. While it was busy in the clinic, Kevin took time to listen and I didn't feel rushed in any way.

Mr Jawad Freites

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I was very anxious about my progress after my procedure and Mr Freites took the time to reassure me that things were going well.He has a very kind and professional manner and the ability to put patients at ease . I felt that I had received the best possible treatment and I am grateful to Mr Freites and his team for their care and attention.

Mr Jalal Kokan

Breast Surgeon

Dr Kokan, explained all the results and procedures following my surgeries . I had 3 operations with the 3rd a mastectomy. The care and empathy was outstanding. The information given booklets etc were helpful that I could read at my own leisure. Dr Kokan always asked if I needed anything explaining on each one to one appointment.
