dentalessence - Haywards Heath

Dentistry, Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery

The dental appointment was for my daughter. It was not as pleasant as it usually is. The dentist was quite harsh the way she spoke to my daughter. As the dentist was cleaning her teeth, she hasn't told my daughter what she had to do step by step, like pre warning saying " you might feel a bit of pressure as I clean your teeth" or even pre warn my daughter that it'll be a bit uncomfortable. I was there but didn't say anything because I thought my daughter was coping with the cleaning of her teeth. I haven't heaed the dentist even askes my daughter if she was okey during the whole procedure. It seems that she doesn't care of how my daughter was coping. After we've left the clinic, my daugher burst into tears and she was so shaken from the experience she just had at the dental clinic. She felt scared of the dentist and traumatized by the care that they've given her. It was a horrible feeling to see that my daughter felt so scared becuase of the incident. Yes, maybe, the dentist might hqve been just frank upon reminding the importance of good dental hygiene but there's a more linient approach in doing so when it comes to explaining it to children. We still wanted to continue going to dental essence but we've requested a different dentist for my daughter. She was to traumatized that she doesn't want to see the same dentist anymore.

Mr Gavin Macpherson

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Following an investigation and guidance by Gavin I decided to opt for a robot assisted Partial Knee Replacement. Gavin takes the time to explain openly and candidly the rationale for each option or corrective procedure offering explanations in simply language. On the day of the operation I met the surgical team 1-2-1 who explained in detail the process I was about to go through. Gavin performed the operation which went as planned. Post operative pain was significant however hospital staff remedied that enabling a fairly comfortable night. Next morning I was surprised at how well I felt. A physiotherapy specialist assessed the movement and flexibility of my knee before getting me standing in front of a zimmer frame. I promptly progressed to crutches taking gentle, small steps initially within a short time walking freely with the crutches and was able to go up and down stairs fairly easily. The physiotherapist was impressed with how my knee was performing particularly the flexibility some 18 hours post surgery that in most similar cases takes weeks to achieve. With all parties satisfied I was discharged 26 hours post surgery. This outcome is a testament to Gavin's knowledge, skills and experience for which I am very grateful for.

Dr Arghya Sarkhel

Psychiatrist

I completed 30 sessions of rTMS treatment for depression at Living Mind Clinic, and it has made a real difference in my life. Before starting, I was struggling with low mood and lack of motivation despite trying various treatments. The team at Living Mind was incredibly kind, professional, and supportive throughout the process — they made me feel comfortable and explained everything clearly. After finishing the course, I noticed a gradual but steady improvement in my mood, energy levels, and overall outlook. I feel more like myself again, and everyday tasks don’t feel as overwhelming as before. The treatment was gentle and completely manageable, and the staff’s genuine care made the experience so much easier. I’m very grateful to the team and would highly recommend rTMS and Living Mind Clinic to anyone struggling with depression who hasn’t found relief with other treatments.

Spire Gatwick Park Hospital

Vascular Surgery, Breast Surgery, + 20 more

My whole experience from start to finish has been absolutely amazing! All staff have been 100% in their delivery of care and support. I felt safe and looked after. The anaesthetist and theatre staff before both operations were totally dedicated in ensuring I felt at ease at a time when I felt most anxious. All ward nurses and assistants were focussed on delivering the highest standard of care with their patience and nothing being too much trouble. Pantry team kept me well fed with delicious drinks and food and always with a smile. Imaging team were so caring, cheerful and again reassuring and professional. The physio team are incredible, they have encouraged and lead me to where I am now - so very nearly there. I cannot fault my experience at Gatwick Spire. A massive thank you to Mr Panose and all teams involved in my operations and recovery.

The booking part of the process was the only thing that could be improved. Took a log time from seeing the consultant to being contacted. The staff member was quite abrupt and inflexible. I was on my way out of the door at the time (7.30pm) and she didn’t seem empathetic to this. No way for me to text the information required in (BUPA details which the hospital already has been sent!). So I was told to call back next day to recite the information. I was offered a single booking time…take it or leave it! The actual appointment and scan was faultless. Friendly and empathetic staff greeted me, were on time (in fact early!) and the whole process was smooth and the scans explained to me clearly and were done quickly. I am however still awaiting the results…so turn around is nearly a month from reporting my concerns about cancer recurrence,

Mr Gareth Stables

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I had a 10 minute consultation telephone call with Mr Stables. I provided details of the issue with my knee, how my knee pain started, my worries and concerns for the future. Mr Stables provided a detailed plan to manage my current symptoms with clear steps on how we could tackle any worsening of my knee pain with specific treatment options.. I came away from our consultation call comforted that Mr Stables and his team will be there to take care of me should I need to investigate the treatment options discussed. I thoroughly recommend contacting Mr Stables if you have concerns about the health of your knees.

Mr Steven McFarlane

Psychotherapist

Steven is an excellent and empathetic therapist. After having several bad experiences with other therapists I met Steven and immediately felt at ease. Steven listens and is non judgemental. When I first started working with him earlier in the year following a traumatic car crash, I thought I would never drive again. Using EMDR therapy, it has taken hard work but I am now back to driving for which I will forever be grateful. I hope this gives hope to anyone in a similar scenario, and encourages you to reach out for help.

Dr Claire Dubois

Rheumatologist

I was referred to Claire by my physio to further investigate ongoing back issues which we’d been unable to resolve with therapy. Claire was engaging, caring, easy to talk to and thorough in her questions of my medical history and checking of my joints; recommending bloods and an MRI which were quickly arranged. We talked over the results and I am now getting further treatment to solve the issue. I’m really glad I was referred to Claire and wouldn’t hesitate to go again if I had any further rheumatic-related problems.

Recently admitted for a procedure under Dr Hunter at the Lisburn Road Hospital. Staff here have been so polite, professional and helpful, seeing to my every need and request. After previous surgeries for the same condition, Dr Hunter has been the most thorough clinician i have been assessed and treated by. He and the staff have kept me updated and reassured on the treatment I required. All staff from Consultants to Domestic Staff have been professional courteous and extremely approachable throughout my stay.

I had a great experience with Harley Mind Care. The psychiatrist was very professional, kind, and understanding throughout the consultation. They listened carefully, asked the right questions, and made me feel comfortable and respected. Everything was clearly explained, and I felt that my concerns were genuinely taken into account. Overall, it was a very positive and reassuring experience — I highly recommend Harley Mind Care to anyone looking for a professional and supportive mental health service.

Clayton Ward at Queen Charlotte's & Chelsea Hospital

Obstetrics & Gynaecology

Staff were excellent - both clinical and non clinical team members. Nothing was too much bother and they went over and above our expectations of the care we thought we would receive. We spent 2 nights on the Clayton Ward after I had an unplanned c section. As first time parents without close family nearby, the Clayton ward offered us the guidance, support and care we needed as a new family but also to allow me to get the appropriate medical care as part of post surgery recovery.

Dr Sotiris Nicholas

Anaesthetist

I couldn’t have imagined a better anaesthetist than Dr. Sotiris for my cesarean. We met before (pre-description), during (description), and after the procedure (see if everything is Ok), and he explained everything with great clarity. During the birth, probably the most vulnerable moment in a woman’s life.,I felt completely supported and guided by his calm and reassuring voice. Merci!

Dr Irfana Koita

Fertility Medicine

Dr. Irfana was incredible quick to respond from the time I booked my first appointment with her. During the initial consultation, she was extremely professional, kind and caring. She clarified all my concerns and gave me step by step directions on how to manage my early pregnancy. Pregnancy after loss can be agonising, but her skills made it all a bit more reassuring.

He is very understanding, professional and very compassionate and kind. I would highly recommend him to anyone to be treated by him. He is very good at his profession.
