Dr Shalini Chawla

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

We are extremely grateful to Dr Shalini Chawla for her care and support through our pregnancy and delivery. We came to her with a complex background — a previous emergency C-section and a very strong desire for a VBAC this time. While some other doctors were hesitant or not fully supportive of this plan, Dr Chawla took the time to understand our priorities and supported us in a thoughtful, evidence-based way. Throughout the pregnancy, there were moments of anxiety and during these times Dr Chawla was always available for us. She guided us calmly and clearly on what to do and when to act, which provided enormous reassurance and prevented unnecessary panic. What stood out most was her flexibility and accessibility, even late at night, which gave us immense reassurance during a very anxious decision-making process. As the pregnancy progressed, plans evolved. VBAC remained our preferred plan throughout, but once we reached our agreed backstop date, we understood that an elective C-section would be required. Even then, discussions continued right up to the night before, with Dr Chawla patiently walking us through the options and ensuring we felt fully supported and informed at every step. Ultimately, we did require an emergency C-section, but Dr Chawla handled the situation with exceptional calm and control. She orchestrated the theatre smoothly, communicated clearly, and the surgery itself was excellent. Recovery has been good, which speaks to the quality of the procedure. Beyond the technical skill, Dr Chawla was consistently reassuring, present, and supportive — both during delivery and afterwards. We never felt rushed or dismissed, and she was always there when we needed guidance or reassurance. We would highly recommend Dr Shalini Chawla - her clinical competence, flexibility, and genuine patient support is rare and deeply appreciated.

Ms Glenda Erwee

Psychotherapist

Before I met Glenda I was at a very low point in my life. I was experiencing an incredible amount of stress and anxiety following a breakdown in my relationship. I found it very hard to function at a level to which I was used to. I have always been high energy and needed to be for my work. Glenda instantly put me at ease, she was always very patient and explained in great detail why I was feeling why I was. Glenda is highly professional and never once did I feel patronised or judged. She spoke to me with respect and encouraged me to learn more about my situation through reading, podcasts, audiobooks etc which really helped me along the way. Some days I would arrive at our therapy session without knowing what I was going to discuss but Glenda creates a safe environment which allows you to open up and share your thoughts and feelings. Glenda is an incredible psychodynamic therapist and has been highly influential in my life and I will be forever grateful for her knowledge, her patience and her kindness. Thank you for everything.

I cannot speak highly enough of Mr Paul Tierney and the care I received during my recent visit to Spire Hospital Bristol. From the very first consultation, Mr Tierney was the consummate professional — calm, knowledgeable, and genuinely compassionate. During what was a challenging and uncertain time, he looked after my overall wellbeing exceptionally well, not just addressing the clinical issues but also ensuring I felt informed, reassured, and supported throughout my recovery. His communication was clear, thorough, and easy to understand at every stage, which made a huge difference to my confidence and peace of mind. I always felt listened to, never rushed, and completely confident that I was in expert hands. I am extremely grateful for the care, professionalism, and humanity shown, and I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Tierney to anyone seeking outstanding medical care

Vision Scotland Edinburgh

Ophthalmology, Optometry

From my initial enquiry about Refractive Lens Replacement surgery, through my surgery and aftercare I have had excellent care from Vision Scotland. Everything was clearly explained and the surgery has left me with the desired result, 20/20 vision with no glasses needed. The only (slight) negative difference here is a greater need for good light when reading at night or close work. The procedure was pain free and I have had no complications. I am looking forward to enjoying the results for (I hope) many years to come. Thank you to all staff involved with my care.

From general enquiry to consultation, procedures and aftercare my experience has been absolutely superb. My procedure was a big step for me and I was supported all the way. My friends are very impressed with the results even after one week. This is honestly the first time I have put myself and I am delighted I did. This was not vanity but a step to look the age I feel.

LIPS Healthcare

Hepatology, Renal Medicine (Nephrology), + 28 more

The doctor was 8 mins late *(with no apology for the late running( and them seemed to have a different idea of why i was there to me - he thought he was just assessing skin tags rather than removing - and then said he didnt have time to remove them - yet he was the one running late. I will come for the follow up but after that will never use this practice again.

I took my daughter to see Dr Hodge at his clinic in Edinburgh, he was thorough and explained everything in great detail.
