Mr Lalin Navaratne

General Surgeon

I made an appointment with Mr Navaratne at his Lindo Wing clinic in St Mary's hospital Paddington. I was looking for  a medical 'answer' to the pain I was in. I underwent a scan in an NHS hospital and was told that a hernia was ruled out which I accepted, but was very confused. Mr Navaratne diagnosed my Umbilical hernia and Diastasis recti. I cannot speak highly enough of the care I received from this appointment all the way through treatment and my Lindo wing stay. I underwent a laparoscopic repair of the umbilical hernia with correction of my diastasis recti. I was in  exceptionally skilled and compassionate professional. I was extremely anxious in my first consultation and also going into surgery, but my surgeon addressed this with remarkable patience, reassurance, and empathy. He took an interest in why I was feeling nervous and took the time to explain every detail thoroughly, answered all my questions with clarity and confidence, and made sure I felt genuinely heard and supported. His calm, reassuring presence made a massive  difference and immediately put me at ease. From a medical standpoint, his expertise is outstanding. The procedure was performed with the highest level of precision and care, demonstrating deep knowledge, advanced technical skill, and meticulous attention to detail. My recovery has been highly supported by Mr Navaratne and his team. He is truly amazing BUT  for me what sets him is the combination of exceptional surgical ability and genuine human kindness. It is rare to find a surgeon who is not only technically brilliant but also so attentive, respectful, and compassionate toward their patients. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone considering abdominal surgery. If you are looking for a surgeon who is highly skilled, deeply knowledgeable, and truly cares about your wellbeing, you could not be in better hands.

Moorfields Private Eye Hospital

Ophthalmology

It would be helpful to add the following to your briefing: after surgery - we will offer to help you to a taxi or to the taxi rank, if you do not have a person to accompany you Worth considering clear plastic, wrap around glasses for walking/cycling in windy areas/or where likely to be grit in the air Clear some space in your fridge for the eye drops which will need to be refrigerated If you are travelling invest in a portable coolbag, with icepack to keep eye drops at the required temperature no eye make up on the day or for a month post op / swimming hair washing will be tricky for a few days, so consider dry shampoo explain to people what is normal in terms of recovery day by day over the subsequent days post surgery explain to people what to do, if despite taking the drops, there is a feeling of grit in eyes explain to people - if it is normal or not to see halos or to see with a soft focus - perhaps have images, which are shown ahead of time provide youtube video with how to insert drops - have practise drop session on a pre visit, with non irritant drops, to enable the technique to be mastered The person who provided the medicines did not go through the 'knuckle technique' which is on the document provided, trying to master this when your eye sight is recovering is not straightforward Suggest that patients have ibrufen 200 and or paracetemol at the ready suggest setting alarm on phone at regular intervals for drop taking suggest that surgeon creates faqs to answer frequent questions on the various options of lens, implications

Mr Javaid Ahmad Muglu

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I don’t tend to leave reviews but feel this is necessary. I think a lot of women out there can resonate with me when I say it can be difficult to be heard and or taken seriously when it comes to Gynecological issues we may face in our lives. Being constantly gaslighted, being told it’s just a heavy period, the pain is normal, lets do a watch and wait, prescriptions given to mask the underlying issues. For me, to describe my past medical experiences regarding this area as both difficult and testing prior to meeting Mr Muglu is an understatement. I decided to try one more time and hopefully someone would take my symptoms seriously. And I am glad I did, as I was blessed with meeting Mr Muglu. From day one, Mr Muglu listened to me when I began to give up hope in finding anyone who would, he took my symptoms seriously, was respectful, made me feel at ease as it was clear he is an expert in his field, was extremely professional and approachable. I also could see that he cares for his work and his patients which is reflective in his results. He is the very definition of excellence within his field and I will only be seeing Mr Muglu in the future where I need a gynecologist. I couldn’t recommend him enough and words cannot describe how grateful I am in relation to the surgery he did. Thankyou Mr Muglu.

Mr James Lamper

Psychotherapist

I had an exceptional experience with the HealthMatters Group, working closely with James and Sue to address my chronic health condition. From the outset, the approach was genuinely bespoke and highly personalised, taking the time to understand not just my symptoms but my lifestyle, stressors, and long-term goals. The plan they developed combined functional medicine with psychological support and practical lifestyle management in a way that felt holistic, evidence-based, and sustainable. Rather than a one-size-fits-all solution, I felt fully supported and educated at every step, with a clear understanding of why changes were recommended and how to implement them in real life. The impact has been significant. I now feel healthier than I have in over 10 years - with noticeably more energy, better stress management, and a far greater sense of control over my weight and overall wellbeing. Perhaps most importantly, I feel informed and empowered to manage my health proactively as I move into my 40s with confidence. I would highly recommend the HealthMatters Group to anyone looking for a truly integrated, thoughtful, and life-changing approach to long-term health.

Diverse Minds Clinic

Psychiatry

I cannot recommend Diverse Minds Clinic highly enough. From the very first contact, the entire experience was professional, supportive, and reassuring. The clinic offers a calm and welcoming environment, and it’s clear that patient care is their top priority. Dr. Alex Cappai is exceptionally knowledgeable, compassionate, and thorough. She took the time to truly listen, asked thoughtful questions, and provided clear explanations throughout the assessment process. I never felt rushed, and for the first time, I felt genuinely understood. The diagnostic clarity and tailored treatment plan have made a significant positive impact on my life. The clinic’s approach goes far beyond a standard appointment, it is holistic, evidence-based, and deeply respectful of individual needs. Communication was excellent, appointments were well organised, and follow-up care was consistent and reliable.

Spire St Anthony's Hospital

I would like to express my sincere thanks and appreciation to doctor Arun for the excellent care I received during my surgery in November. From the beginning, I felt very well looked after, and the procedure itself was handled with great professionalism and skill. The outcome of the surgery has been very positive, and I am extremely pleased with the results. What stood out most to me was the doctor’s empathy and understanding. He took the time to listen to my concerns, understood the impact the problem was having on me, and addressed everything clearly and reassuringly. This made a significant difference to my experience and helped me feel confident and at ease throughout the process. Thank you for the high standard of care and for treating me with such kindness and respect. I am very grateful.

Mr Vijay Wagh

Ophthalmologist

Mr Wagh is a lovely gentleman. He explained clearly what my issues are, and his proposed treatment. This did not include surgery, which would have been in his financial interests and which had been recommended previously; and he explained very clearly why it was not the best course of action. The treatment he suggested is easily achievable without expensive assistance, and does feel like the best course of action even though I went into the consultation convinced I needed to go under the knife. I am very impressed with his bedside manner, ability to clearly explain the pro's and con's of all available options, and his recommending the best course of action for me, rather than including his own interests which we know from the recent news is not always the case.

Mr Taleb Jeddy

General Surgeon

I had been suffering with severe swelling in my leg caused by varicose veins for over two years. Having explored various options, I landed on Spire and found Dr Jeddy. As soon as I met him for my initial consultation I felt relaxed and felt as though Dr Jeddy understood me, my lifestyle and the need for results. The procedure on the day was flawless and I was home by 5pm that day. All the follow ups with the nursing team to change bandages and with Dr Jeddy at the 3 week mark were flawless as well. 3 weeks and all the small incisions are healed, I have no swelling and I am back training for my Ironman in 2026. Couldn’t recommend Dr Jeddy, his team and Spire hospital any more

The McIndoe Centre

My experience at the McIndoe centre was incredible. Throughout my surgery and stay the entire team were incredibly kind and caring. I was given plenty of reassurance prior to my surgery, everyone involved during my surgery was incredibly professional and the aftercare following my surgery was incredible. All of my nurses were incredibly kind and helpful and made the process so much easier. I had a great private room and bathroom, and the food was also great! Cannot recommend the McIndoe centre enough, they will be my first choice should I have any more procedures in future

Dr Tsui Chin Ling

Dermatologist

I’m so glad I decided to go private and saw Dr Ling. I was suffering with a bad flare up of Eczema which completely took over 50% of my body and tried steroid cream and lots of emollient with no improvements. Once I saw Dr Ling she prescribed me a steroid cream which GP had not tried and immediately after a week I noticed improvement and after a month the rash had cleared. She also referred me for light therapy with NHS which I have already started. She was friendly, helpful and understanding. My experience was 5*. Thank you Dr Tsui chin Ling.

HCA Healthcare UK The Princess Grace Hospital

Breast Surgery, Urology, + 8 more

I only saw Mr Lambert so cannot give feed back on any other member of his team. From being referred by someone who knows him well, I was predisposed to like him and respect his expertise, but hadn't expected to find such a a courteous, thoughtful, kind man who engaged with every aspect of me as a patient. Mr Lambert answered all my questions and was patient and understanding. I felt listened to, for the first time since I had my injury.

Mr Jamie Griffiths

Orthopaedic Surgeon

My recent visit was to review progress following my second partial knee replacement operation this year. Prior to both operations Mr Griffiths explained clearly what the operations entailed and the recovery process. He was always willing to answer any questions I had in a professional and caring way. Both operations went well and I have every confidence in his skill and professionalism. I would recommend his services most highly.

Dr Flavia Pretti Aslanian

Dermatologist

Flavia treated my son with severe acne. She explained the treatment in details at the beginning, and highlighted the associated risks. She was very careful throughout the treatment, double checking that my son didn’t have side effects and she always explained her decisions clearly. She gave a lot additional advice to my son what to do and what to avoid besides taking his usual medication. I highly recommend her.

I would highly recommend this medical centre for their high standard of care and friendly service.
