Practice Plus Group Hospital, Barlborough

I had knee replacement surgery at the Practice Plus hospital at Barlborough on 29th November. The pain I experienced during the two weeks following the surgery on a scale of 1 to 10 I would rate at 8 to 9. Now that I am in my eight week of recovery my pain level is 1 or2 I had a problem in that during the first 2 weeks after surgery I was hardly able to sleep due to the pain when lying down and some nights I had zero hours of sleep. After discussion with the hospital pharmacist it became evident that one of the pain killing medicines I had been prescribed had insomnia as one of it’s side effects. After stopping this medication and taking an alternative my sleep pattern returned to normal and my recovery accelerated. From the experiences of friends who had undergone this surgery I knew that physiotherapy was the key to a successful outcome. The physiotherapy I received at Barlborough was exceptional. By following their exercise plans and receiving guidance at my follow-up visits I am now able walk for one hour virtually pain free, ride my static bike at home and if all goes well should be able to ride my bike on the road in a few weeks time. Thank you Barlborough Stephen M

Dr. Aaron Hughes

Dermatologist

I am writing to share my feedback following my second appointment with Dr. Aaron Hughes. In an era where healthcare can often feel rushed and impersonal, Dr. Hughes is a remarkable exception. From the outset, he was friendly, approachable, and demonstrated a genuine interest in my wellbeing. I particularly appreciated that he remembered specific concerns from my previous visit, which immediately made me feel valued as an individual rather than just another appointment slot. Dr. Hughes is an incredibly patient practitioner who listens actively and takes all concerns seriously. During the examination, he was thorough and took the time to explain his diagnosis and treatment plan in detail. Most importantly, I left both appointments feeling genuinely cared for. He is truly one of the best health professionals I have encountered in a long time. I would also like to commend the rest of the staff at the dermatology department, who were equally friendly and helpful.

Castle Craig Hospital

Psychiatry, Psychotherapy

Jag kom till Castle Craig från Sverige efter att ha blivit hänvisad av Beroendekliniken i Stockholm, och jag var nervös inför att resa utomlands för behandling. Redan från början kändes dock hela processen lugn och välorganiserad, vilket verkligen hjälpte mig att känna mig trygg. Personalen var vänlig, tillgänglig och visade ett genuint engagemang för min återhämtning. Behandlingen kändes personlig och aldrig stressad, och för första gången kände jag mig verkligen lyssnad på och förstådd. Den lugna miljön gjorde det lättare att fokusera på mig själv och mitt tillfrisknande. Jag åker härifrån med mer självförtroende, klarhet och praktiska verktyg för vardagen. Jag skulle absolut rekommendera Castle Craig till alla som söker stöd, även om det innebär att resa från ett annat land.

Kingsbridge Diagnostic and Treatment Centre

Cardiology, Dermatology, + 4 more

Reception staff were very helpful both on arrival and when leaving the centre. The medical staff were very knowledgeable & took time to explain everything that would be part of the procedures. The doctor and his team of nurses worked very well together, a well run team. I liked the idea that a nurse remained beside me throughout all the procedures, explaining things as they happened. The recovery room nurse was very attentive and very helpful in her explanation of the printouts following the procedures. The discharge staff in the discharge waiting room provided a very welcome cup of tea and a slice of toast. I had been fasting for over 24 hours by that stage.

Spire Manchester Hospital

Orthopaedic Surgery, Ear Nose & Throat Surgery (ENT/Otolaryngology), + 11 more

All staff were very efficient and attentive. There were two areas of concern. The cocktail of pain killers was not fully explained to me and I was severely sick both in hospital and at home on my release day, Saturday December 6th. My wife at 2000hrs rang the ward from home and was able to travel to the hospital collect an anti nausea prescription, this at 21.30. Jasmine (ward 1) and Sophie(ward 2) were brilliant. In addition, having been told at 1.30 I could go home my wife and I eventually left at approximately 4.30. Surprisingly there was only one porter on duty on the Saturday afternoon.

Dr. Rebecca Poet

General Practitioner

I have felt exceptionally well looked after over the past three years. From the very beginning, my symptoms were listened to, thoroughly discussed, and always taken seriously. I never felt rushed, and every appointment left me feeling reassured and supported. A clear, thoughtful plan was put in place to help improve how I felt, and I’ve genuinely noticed the difference. The level of care, understanding, and professionalism has been outstanding, and I have felt truly cared for throughout my journey. I’m incredibly grateful for the support and would highly recommend to anyone seeking hormone care.

Mr Aimen Amer

General Surgeon

Met Mr Amer at Washington Clinic . He was warmly welcoming despite having had a very busy day up to that point. We discussed the background to my appointment , which was a very effective way of getting to understand a bit about each other as well as the medical details. Very clear explanation also using some video to show what procedures would entail . Good clear summary of the various risks involved . I came away from the appointment very confident in Mr Amer and with a clear plan for treatment which hopefully can be done quickly to fit in with other things I'm doing . Faultless .

Miss Tasha Gandamihardja

General Surgeon

Tasha has truly been a lifesaver to me. She is not only incredibly knowledgeable and professional, but also a genuinely compassionate human being. During one of the most vulnerable times in my life, she made me feel safe, supported, and understood. Her ability to explain everything clearly, without overwhelming medical jargon, helped me feel informed and at ease every step of the way. I am deeply grateful for the care, guidance, and reassurance she provided before, during, and after my diagnosis and surgery. I cannot thank Tasha enough for the difference she made in my journey.

Mr Shobhit Verma

Orthopaedic Surgeon, Paediatric Surgeon

Absolutely Outstanding” Mr Verma and his amazing secretary, went above and beyond to care for my son. Having been to A&E on a few occasions with multiple knee injuries due to football and consultants not being able to identify the underlining reasons we sought private help. Mr Verma was really thorough diagnosing the problem, explaining the treatment and he was available to talk too throughout the whole process. We would highly recommend him. He is extremely knowledgeable, and he cares.

Miss Ayeshah Abdul-Hamid

ENT Surgeon

My appointment with Miss Ayeshah Abdul-Hamid put me at a lot of ease as she answered all my questions clearly and explained the process of my surgery in a very easy to understand way so I feel confident that my surgery will go well and how I have a lot of trust for my treatment plan. It is very clear that Miss Ayeshah Abdul-Hamid knows her stuff and is very competent as well as being very kind and attentive.

Cleveland Clinic Portland Place Outpatient Centre

Gastroenterology, Anaesthetics, + 10 more

This was my initial consultation with Dr Eriksson. My health journey has been quite long and emotionally draining, so it was important to me that I felt heard, understood and supported in this consultation and Dr Eriksson ticked all the boxes. I left feeling positive and clear about the next steps . The staff and reception were super friendly and welcoming too. Highly recommend .

Mentis Clinic

Psychiatry, Psychology

I recently had my ASD/ADHD assessment with Mentis Clinic, and I’m incredibly grateful for the experience. Hannah and Dr Shaikh were warm, approachable, and genuinely understanding. They made me feel safe, listened to, and completely validated, something that’s sadly rare in the real world. I would definitely recommend Mentis Clinic to anyone seeking clarity and support.

City Dietitians

Dietitian

I had a video call. Frances was extremely helpful and understood the complexities of my many health conditions. I felt that I was given a practical plan to address some of the issues and I was given an outline of future steps which could be introduced at a later date. I felt extremely happy with the support and advice I received.

Mr Edwin Omih

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

Mr Senthurun Mylvaganam

Wonderful surgeon. I had a breast reduction. I am now beautifully lifted, lovely shape. Mr Mylvaganam has been respectful, gentle, informative and approachable throughout. He has informed me that I can contact him for any further reviews if necessary. I am really pleased with my care and life changing result.
