Mr Bilal Al-Obaidi

Orthopaedic Surgeon

From my first consultation through to my last when I was discharged from his care, Bilal has been the most reassuring, calm, informative, patient and genuinely caring surgeon I could have wished for. During that first consultation he was not pushy and was very clear and thorough in his reasoning for recommending a TKR. He then explained what he would do during the procedure, what recovery would be like and his role throughout the process. Even when I had to postpone my operation due to an unrelated illness, he and his assistant were understanding and flexible, rescheduling for when would be most convenient for me. On the day of the operation, Bilal was at the hospital before I arrived and came to see me and again provide reassurance and clarity on what was happening. I next saw him in the anaesthetic area and I was in no doubt that I was in great hands. In the recovery area afterwards he was there making sure I was feeling as well as could be and then visited my room on both days post surgery to assess my progress and let me know his opinion. When I was in need of a repeat prescription for pain medication he was prompt and during my first post op consultation he was very encouraging, understanding and also clear on milestones I needed to hit. He also provided a sick note after discussing this with me. My last consultation was similar, and he first to say happy new year as well. I have a long way to go but I count myself lucky that I landed in the care of Bilal, and would recommend him to anyone with an acute knee condition.

Moorfields Private Eye Hospital

Ophthalmology

I had a bilateral cataract operation, performed by Mr. Deshmukh. The whole experience exceeded my expectations. The technicians who did all the assessment checks (separate and earlier appointment) were excellent. At this appointment I met Mr Deshmukh who put me at ease and we discussed the best replacement lenses to suit my needs. For me the premium lenses were the right choice. On the day of the operation the hospital staff were brilliant - professional and good humoured. The operation was completely painless and took much less time than I had anticipated. The immediate aftercare was been superb and the nurse talked me through what I had to do and just as importantly avoid doing. I was given some eye drops to use for the next 4 weeks. You quickly become expert at using them. Following the operation my eyesight was as good as I can remember it ever being. I then returned for a follow up consultation with Mr Deshmukh who confirmed that my recovery was going very well and my vision is better than 20/20. I have worn spectacles since my early teens and this is an incredible outcome. I can now proceed with my training to become a driving instructor.

Thames View at Charing Cross Hospital

Respiratory Medicine, General Surgery, + 39 more

I actually did not get to use the facilities in the private wing of Charing Cross Hospital, as I was seen in neurophysiology on level three of the NHS departments. The only time I had to go up to the 15th floor was to get two forms, stamped and provide my pre-authorisation number that meant getting in a crowded lift and riding up to the 15th floor, which took a very long time as the lift stopped on nearly every floor. Then I had to go back down to level three for tests. It was actually quite stressful for someone with my health conditions to do this, and to be expected to do this administration as the patient!. The waiting area in the NHS department was not relaxing, it was very hot, no natural light was had limited/poor ventilation and the receptionist was quite rude. The medical staff were more polite. When I pay for private healthcare, I prefer to stay in the private department than in the crowded NHS areas. I gather on this occasion the tests were not available in the private wing, but perhaps another hospital where the consultant worked would’ve been able to accommodate. I was not informed that the tests would be in the NHS department.

Schoen Clinic Chelsea

Coaching, Holistic Therapy, + 7 more

My care at this clinic has been outstanding and I would recommend it to anyone needing expert psychiatric support for complex trauma. The service is psychiatry-led, with the consultant coordinating treatment plans and supervising input from psychology, occupational therapy, group therapy and trauma modalities including EMDR, DBT, CBT and embodied psychotherapy. This ensured that care was coherent rather than fragmented. I initially attended four in-person sessions per week and have now safely transitioned to monthly. The team have specialist expertise in workplace bullying, institutional power dynamics and identity-related trauma, which is unusual to find. The level of understanding and clinical leadership has made a meaningful difference to my recovery, and I could not recommend the service more highly.

Avenues

Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Fertility Medicine, + 1 more

I have used Avenues for a cycle of IVF/ICSi, a hysteroscopy and then FET. I was under the care of De Ali Al Chami and became pregnant with the first transfer, having 3 failed attempts elsewhere. Dr Al Chami changed my protocol (both stimulation and transfer protocol). This places is miles apart because it guarantees continuity of care and patients are treated as people. dr Ali is a wonderful person and he cares about his patients. The midwives (Marina Christina Katie Fiona Emily Starvula) are all amazing and know each patient by name and treated me with warmth, dignity, compassion and professionalism.

Mr Randeep Aujla

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I attended Spire Leicester for surgery to repair a rectus femoris tendon rupture. Mr. Aujla was totally transparent and very detailed in explaining the whole process. The end to end communication was excellent and very reassuring. On the day of surgery, the admission process was superb and Mr Aujla bedside manner was superb. It made me feel that I was in good hands. Post surgery Mr Aujla came to see me to make sure I was comfortable and in no pain. I remained in contact with Mr Aujla in my recovery period. My recovery has been excellent and I would recommend Mr Aujla to anyone.

The Park Hospital (part of Circle Health Group)

Breast Surgery, Cardiology, + 19 more

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.

Ms Catherine Helen Ward

General (Internal) Medicine

My consultation with Dr. Catherine was exceptionally well conducted. She demonstrated strong clinical expertise and communicated complex information clearly and thoughtfully. I appreciated the time she took to listen to my concerns and her patient, reassuring manner throughout the appointment. Her professionalism, empathy, and calm approach created a highly supportive environment, and I left feeling confident and well‑informed. I am truly grateful for the high quality of care she provided.

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.

Dr Sanchoy Sarkar

Gastroenterologist

I have had colonoscopies before, but the procedure by Dr. Sarkar and his team was professional, caring, and supportive. Everything was explained to me clearly. The procedure itself wasn’t painful or uncomfortable, which was something I had been a little concerned about owing to my previous experience, about six years ago. Thank you Dr. Sarkar and your team.

Dr Khaled Ayazi

Pain Management Specialist

An outstanding experience from diagnosis to treatment. Dr. Ayazi is thorough, compassionate, and takes the time to listen carefully. Today’s injection was performed smoothly and professionally. . Excellent care from start to finish. Dr. Ayazi is kind, attentive, and highly professional. We are very happy and grateful extremely satisfied.

Mr Gavin Love

Orthopaedic Surgeon

My experience,was an amazing one, as soon as I arrived I had great treatment, everyone was friendly, I spoke to anaesthetist, and Mr love explaining everything that was to happen.I had no nerves, and Mr love came to see me after the operation, Said all had gone well.i had something to eat,had a good sleep and was home the next day,

This was the first time I had been treated in hospital for 50 years so I was understandably anxious about having a hip replacement operation but everybody was so kind and helpful with endless patience and professionalism nothing was to much trouble and I would recomend to anyone this hospital and all the staff are excellent.

Mr Moustafa Issa

Ophthalmologist

I was treated very well today. My only comment was that I would have liked a slightly more thorough explanation of his findings with a clear but simple review of the plan of action, in layman's terms, and taking a little more time so I didn't feel 'processed'. On the other hand I know he is busy and others need his time too.

Miss Iranthi Meththananda

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

Iranthi made me feel at ease and explained everything clearly. I have waited a long time for this appointment so it was a relief to have her arranging for blood tests and extra tests for as soon as possible, knowing things were being pushed through and we are getting somewhere meaning I felt heard and in good hands

The York Dental Suite by Mafalda Queiroz

Dentistry

As someone who has undergone some awful dental appointments, being treated by Krish at York Dental Suite was a wonderfully pleasant surprise. I was told exactly what would be happening, given time to ask questions and every effort was made to make me feel comfortable throughout the treatment.
