Mr Mohammed Akmal

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I have been under the care of Mr. Akmal since 2022, for treatment of Spinal disc degeneration. Without his professional skill and empathy I would still be in chronic pain. Having had a very successful disc replacement & fusion surgery back in 2023 under his care, further deterioration in other joints resulted in needing another bout of disc replacements and fusion in my cervical spine, and cortex spacers in my lumber spine. In late 2025 I embarked on another session of surgery and underwent the operation to replace, fuse and insert spacers in the offending areas of my Lumber & Cervical spine. I request both of my afflicted areas be treated in the same operation, whilst naturally cautious he undertook a rigorous assessment of the risks and eventually he and his team agreed to proceed. I had both my Cervical and Lumber spine treated in the same surgery and having entered at 07:00, I once again walked out at 18:00 on the same day. 2 weeks later the key hole wounds had healed I was off painkillers and well on the way to full recovery. My experience again is a testimony not only to the personal skill, knowledge and empathy of Mr. Akmal, but to all the people who enable such life changing surgery to happen, including the anaesthetist, surgical team, and ward staff. The successes of the surgery undertaken by Mr. Akmal and his highly skilled team are due not only to their professional skills, but to the holistic approach taken from diagnosis, explanation of options, type of painkillers and follow up care. Whilst the impact of aging and bodily wear cannot be escaped, Mr. Akmal does offer options to improve quality of life immensely. An interesting footnote is prior to the surgery I was suffering from Hypertension, post surgery my BP is back to normal for my age, a reflection of how chronic pain can affect you in more ways than one....!!

Spire Harpenden Hospital

Whilst time waiting to see Mr Khan was very quick , if I'd arrived any later I wouldn't have completed my check in and, I arrived more than the recommended 15 mins early more staff on reception required plus I don't think self checking in on tablets helps , whilst fine for me others clearly needed help.After seeing Mr Khan I needed follow up appointments for a scan and,blood/urine tests . Having waited at 1 reception for 15 minutes area to make an appointment for the tests to be brusquely told to go and make my scan appointment as it "Would save time" .When I'm 2 away from the desk don't think it was about saving my time.Then wait at the radiology department reception for another 15 minutes as only 1 person on reception, told they'll need to check with the radiologist and, would call me today as yet they haven't. Return to main outpatient reception to book tests and, amazingly I've now got 6 people in front of me ...finally get to the desk to be told can't do blood test as no one there to do them .Now had there been but because of time wasted there no longer was ? Not impressed by The Spire on this occasion, Mr Khan yes , but everything else no .

Mr Gerald Brookes

ENT Surgeon

This is not a complain but rather an honest review of my experience. I took my mother to Harley Street ENT Clinic for two consecutive appointments on Mondays, scheduled at 08:30 and 09:00. On both occasions, the clinic was open and appointments had started, but the lead audiologist Indhuja had not yet arrived. We were repeatedly told she was running late. While I understand that delays can happen occasionally, having this occur twice in a row felt highly unprofessional, especially as it required me to take time off my own job to bring my mother. Waiting for the audiologist to arrive significantly impacted my own schedule and added unnecessary stress. I hope the clinic can ensure that appointments start on time so that patients’ time is respected, as the care itself was thorough once the appointments began. No issues there - Dr Gerald Brookes was amazing as usual. Thank you!

After a mole on my shoulder began to grow, I booked a private consultation with a specialist who had removed others by Crotherapy. He told me that he could only do it after the infection which had caused it to change, had been cured and prescribed a course of antibiotics. The infection increased after several courses of six different antibiotics which were prescribed by my NHS practice were not able to halt its progress. My daughter Annie convinced me to book an appointment at Essex Private GP. I was seen on the same day and the correct antibiotics to target the infection were identified and prescribed at my first visit. There is already a significant improvement, thank you.

Dr Khaled Ayazi

Pain Management Specialist

I had a top-class experience with Dr Khaled Ayazi. He was extremely knowledgeable, clear, and informative, and took the time to explain the procedure in a reassuring way. This made a big difference, especially as my father was quite nervous. My father’s English is not very strong as it is not his first language, but this was not an issue at all—Dr Khaled Ayazi was able to speak his language, which was a huge plus. It immediately put my father at ease and made the overall experience even better. I would highly recommend Dr Khaled Ayazi to other patients.

I had an online meeting with Gayle which was really helpful, much more relaxed than expected whilst including an in-depth exploration of my test results, health issues, and their timeline and effects on my life. Gayle is polite, respectful, understanding, and easy to talk to, as well as thorough and interested to understand and create a full picture. She’s very knowledgeable in a range of areas and made various links between results and possible causes. I look forward to continuing my health improvement with her support.

Mr Edward Lee

Ophthalmologist

I received excellent care from my Consultant Eye Surgeon, Mr Edward Lee. From my initial consultation for a cataract removal and subsequent surgery and follow up, I was treated with professionalism, kindness and reassurance. Everything was explained clearly which gave me confidence to have the procedure. Thanks to his care, my vision has improved significantly, and I am extremely grateful and I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Lee to anyone seeking expert and compassionate eye care.

St Peter's Andrology

Urology

St. Peter's Andrology provided an exceptional experience from start to finish. The staff, Maria, Professor David Ralph's personal assistant, were incredibly friendly and understanding throughout the entire process. Their support was invaluable, guiding us all the way to surgery and beyond. Afterward, they recommended an excellent IVF clinic, which ultimately helped us welcome our beautiful twin girls. We are truly grateful for their care and expertise!

Amazing consultation and face scan with Eleni who prescribed an Obagi skincare system which is making my skin look brighter, tighter and fresher already. Several treatments from Monica which I am delighted with after having old cheek fillers dissolved from another clinic years ago. I feel like I have my old self back but renewed and refreshed because of Monica’s expert treatments giving a natural soft more youthful look. Very happy customer!

GenesisCare Surrey

Oncology

All of the staff are so friendly, this whole experience has been made so much more positive because of them. The facilities are wonderful, it feels more like a hotel lounge than a waiting area. The refreshments and activities are thoughtful for not just the patients but also to those who may be attending with them. I feel incredibly supported by the whole team here, from a welcome every time at reception to treatment the experience is top.

Cancer Services

Oncology

I have been under the care of Professor Andrew Wardley for the past three years, and the care he has provided has been outstanding. He is always very responsive and open to any requests or questions. Throughout my cancer journey, he has consistently been calm, composed, and reassuring, which made an incredibly difficult time much easier to face. I am deeply grateful for his expertise, professionalism, and compassionate approach.

We are so grateful to have found Paediatric Diagnostics to support us with our little one’s tongue tie. We were welcomed warmly by the practicing nurse and were swiftly met by Dr Khemani. Our little one was examined and treated with great care. His tongue tie release was completed within minutes and he was happily feeding moments after. We felt at ease for the duration and would highly recommend their services.

Newmedica Welwyn Garden City

Ophthalmology

The operating room was VERY COLD, and the nursing staff were very polite as I was very scared,the staff were most understanding and repeatedly asked if I was alright, but the doctor who carried out the operation (to me in a hurry to go home)kept on telling me to be still,i honestly believe any patient that has to undergo treatment to the eye should be given some type f tranqualisr to calm their nerves.

Tajmeel Clinic

Anaesthetics, Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine

During my most recent visit, Dr Khalil carried out a thorough hair transplant check-up, carefully assessing progress and results. We then discussed the option of PRP treatment as a potential next step to further support hair health and optimise long-term outcomes. The review was calm, professional, and reassuring, and the team at Tajmeel Clinic made the experience smooth and comfortable throughout.

I have had physiotherapy treatment with Seth Chambers for several months for various conditions. I was very pleased with Seth's advice which was instructive and really helpful in treating my injuries. It was also very useful that he could refer me to the musculo-skeletal doctor Sarah Rollins at the same practice who was also excellent. I am now injury free and would happily recommend both of them.

Mr Dimitrios Moschonas

Urologist

I was extremely satisfied with my consultation with Mr Moschonas. He saw me promptly, examined me and after some discussion of my condition, he offered me the solution that I had been seeking. Everything was clearly explained and he answered all my concerns and questions. A very likeable and professional gentleman too.
