Mr Aruna Dharmasena

Ophthalmologist

I am Chinese with one (what I thought was a) hooded eyelid. I was immediately at ease at the consultation with Dr Dharmasena. He took the time to measure my eyes and conducted eye examinations using optical machines. He then drew a diagram which clearly illustrated what needed to be done. There was no pressure. It was clear that he was very experienced in his field. It was agreed that the crease on my eyelid needed to be repositioned (Asian bleph) rather than removing the hood, in fact there was no excess skin to remove. In a different clinic this other consultant offered me hooded eyelid surgery which would have been the completely wrong op. Other consultants would not just operate on one eye as they need to work on both eyes to create symmetry. So I was glad that Dr Dharmasena agreed to operate on one eye and be skilled enough to match it to the good eye. The cost The cost was very reasonable and affordable. There was a consultation fee, the surgeons fee and the hospital fee. The op It took around 40 mins. The hospital fees were very well priced considering there were three nurses and the consumables and equipment needed wouldn’t have been cheap. One of them held my hand incase I was anxious. For me the anaesthetic was just a sharp scratch in the eyelid, which lasted seconds. I opted for no sedation which brought the cost down by hundreds. The only thing I found uncomfortable was the insertion of the eye shield over the eyeball but it was a necessity. Dr Dharmasena popped in more eyedrops in to help numb the eyeball. During the surgery, I could smell burning skin, it is a distinct smell and I’m guessing the cut was done using a laser. Dr Dharmasena sat me up twice to check the position. I don’t remember much more about the operation other than it was very smooth and painless. Afterwards a huge dressing was applied to my eye. After care pack was provided and after a cup of tea and biscuits, I took a taxi home. Recovery. With one eye covered, I had no 3D perception and couldn’t tell how far something was. I removed the plaster the next day. There was no pain, bleeding or bruising. The lid was very swollen and red. I applied the chloramphenicol ointment regularly. The stitching was impressively neat and thin. Purple dissolvable sutures were used. He has also mentioned that he will keep the ends long so that they don’t unravel prematurely. There were 4 deep sutures that created the crease and other evenly spaced stitches along the crease to close the wound. The sutures started to irritate my lid after 14 days because my lid was in that transition stage where the wound is healing but the sutures were still hanging on. So I went to see Dr Dharmasena who removed a couple of sutures that were ready to come out and snipped the rest shorter. This provided a lot of relief and as the days went on, the skin started to heal up and the sutures started to drop off. Now on day 40, only one deep suture remains. The eyelid was a little numb and darker in colour. The feeling is returning and the dark skin is becoming lighter. He also mentioned that he created a crease that is 1mm higher as the lid always drops. Whilst it was healing it was bigger than expected but as it healed, it did drop just as he said it would. I’ve worn make up once and with the new eyelid, I am absolutely thrilled to tears. I can see my eyeliner and eyeshadow for the first time. One really impressive thing to mention is that Dr Dharmasena created an inner crease for my new eye. Chinese eyes don’t usually have an inner crease but my good eye does and he managed to recreate this. I didn’t even know I needed it till he created it and it’s beautiful! I am very happy with the whole experience and thanks to Dr Dharmasena for making one of my dreams come true.

Dr Shalini Chawla

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

⸻ We are incredibly grateful to our consultant obstetrician, Dr Shalini Chawla, for the outstanding care we received throughout my pregnancy and delivery. From the very beginning, she was thoughtful, thorough, and always focused on ensuring the safest and best possible outcome for both me and my baby. Given my previous myomectomy, slightly raised blood pressure, and a transverse lie, she carefully assessed all risks and recommended that my planned C-section be brought forward from 39 weeks to 38 weeks to minimise any potential labour-related risks. This decision gave us complete reassurance and confidence that everything was being managed with great care and expertise. What truly set Dr Chawla apart was how accessible and supportive she was at every stage. She was always available for any concerns, no matter how small, and her care did not stop at delivery. Her aftercare was exceptional- she was incredibly motherly, kind, and attentive, and went out of her way to arrange additional support and care for us when needed. We always felt listened to, never rushed, and fully supported during what can be an overwhelming time. We couldn’t have asked for better care and will always be deeply thankful to Dr Chawla for her professionalism, compassion, and dedication to achieving the very best outcome for our family.

Mr Lebur Rohman

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Not all heroes wear capes – Mr Rohman was fabulous! Mr. Rohman truly is a hero in my eyes. Before my surgery, I was living in constant pain and felt like my life was shrinking. I decided to seek treatment, and finding Mr. Rohman was the turning point. From the very first consultation, he was absolutely fabulous. He didn't just treat the hip; he treated me. He listened to my fears, explained the hip replacement procedure with total clarity, and gave me the confidence to go ahead. The surgery itself was a complete success. Mr. Rohman’s surgical skill is obvious, but it is his bedside manner—kind, attentive, and incredibly professional—that makes him stand out. I am now pain-free and back on my feet faster than I ever imagined. The care I received was worth it. If you are looking for a surgeon who is talented, caring, and simply fabulous, look no further than Mr. Rohman. He has given me a new lease of life. Now wanting my knee done too!

Both myself and my daughter have been patients of Dr Bakshi for over a year and he has helped us hugely. Recently my 18 month old was suffering from back to back viruses and worsening rashes. I contacted Dr Bakshi in desperation just before Christmas as the treatment advice from the GP was not working, and it was looking like we would be unable to travel and see family while she was so unwell. Dr Bakshi identified 2 types of skin infection and was able to advise the correct regimen of creams to use, and we were able to see our family at Christmas. Thank you so much for your kindness and empathy, and for always going above and beyond. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr Bakshi for both adults and children; he is one of the kindest and most helpful and knowledgeable consultants I have come across, and his secretary Rahul is also lovely and very responsive and helpful.

Yesterday I had a phone call from Mr Yang who came up with a plan for my latest UTI . We had a full and informative discussion. Within 5 mons of his call I had a private prescription emailed to me and within 30 mins I had a phone call from Forbury saying my UTI vaccine was ready for collection. I went to the Forbury and the vaccine was all ready for me complete with cooling pack to keep it cold. During the afternoon I also received a very accurate clinic letter from Mr Yang and copied to my GP. All very speedy and efficient and much appreciated.

Quality Dental : Worthing

Dentistry

I’ve been a customer at Quality Dental for a while now and they’ve always been amazing. More recently, I’ve been seeing Dr. Ahmed for a filling, and he is fantastic. Coming from someone who is usually terrified of needles, I was naturally nervous, but he is incredibly gentle and patient. He took the time to make sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process and his work is top-tier. It’s been a total relief to find a dentist who actually listens and makes the experience stress-free. I can’t recommend him and the team enough!

All professionals on all levels, be it administration, psychiatrists, health care professionals etc, have all been extremely empathetic, kind, respectful and efficient. I felt safe and able to trust all members of staff during all interactions I've had. Sometimes organisation wasn't always perfect such as informant questionnaires seemingly getting lost and causing delays and my assessment being double booked requiring a last minute rescheduling, but any problems were dealt with efficiently.

Mrs Rachel Sherriff

Acupuncturist

We turned to Rachel after 2 failed IVF cycles- lost on where to turn. She was a breath of fresh air after a clinic who explained very little. She reassured us, talked us through options and helped guide us towards a number of additional tests and ultimately a new clinic. Ultimately we were then incredibley lucky to fall pregnant naturally after 2 1/2 years of trying and we are sure the improvements made through testing particularly on my husbands side helped.

The hospital was very clean, very friendly and very welcoming. I was shown to my room, given a menu for dinner that night as I was staying over. The staff were all very polite and attentive, even going above and beyond to get me a chocolate milkshake when the kitchen had shut. Very nice people and a very good stay after my first time going under anaesthetic

Mr Adam Devany

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Outstanding. Easy-going enough to put you at ease, whilst at the same time asking the right questions and coming to excellent conclusions. He explains with clarity and good judgement. Importantly for me, he is not afraid to think outside of the box, and treats you as a person not a procedure. Excellent outcomes for my foot surgery. Keep up the good work

Has a great experience. Was an indeoth cgst about my hormone history and very fast blood resets and only in a few days had them back and an appointment to chat through. There was an immediate red flag and in a few days had the right medication and started to feel better in only a few days. Also check up texts which made me feel so supported

Mr Stephen Burgess

Ophthalmologist

I don't remember it much, however the right eye was well and painlessly operated, the left eye, it seems, the surgeon encountered some issue and he mentioned it to nurse, I did not understand, but for a few days the eye was sore around periphery of eye ball muscles, it would have helped to know what, if anything, occurred there.

Mr Tim Brock

Orthopaedic Surgeon

The whole experience of my treatment carried out by Mr Brock was excellent. All stages of the process were explained well and my questions and concerns were answered in a kind and compassionate manner. The outcome of my surgery is better than I could have wished for and I am very grateful to Mr Brock for his skill and expertise.

Dr. Anna Nuttall

Rheumatologist

Dr Nuttall was highly professional yet personable. She was on time and yet I didn’t feel rushed in my appointment. She explained every aspect of changes in my condition and reasons for adapting my medication. She was kind and pleasant with a very open “ask me anything “ approach. Definitely a five stars out of five. Thank you

CAS Medical

Had a visit recently pre-christmas for a TSW flare up. Doctor was extremely kind, took all my concerns on board and didn't push me into using any medication I didn't want to. Went away with a prescription for medication I was happy to use and am feeling much better. Would use again if it was required.
