Mr Sabur Malek

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I had a total hip replacement about 6 months ago after years of pain and stiffness in my hip joint. As I am only in my late 40s I was reluctant to get it replaced at a relatively young age. Since the procedure I have felt like a different person and the pain that I had went immediately after the operation. I have just had a routine 6 month checkup with Mr Malek and the hip has healed nicely. I chose Mr Malek due to his experience with minimal evasive hip surgery and from the initial consultation through to the operation and aftercare I have been highly impressed with the overall process and his work. He is very approchable and helpful and made me feel I was in good hands. Furthermore, there has been little damage to the affected area which has allowed me to recover very quickly. Eventually I will need my other hip replacing and I will be returning to Mr Malek for this procedure to.

Mr David Griffiths

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

My recent visit was to receive the results of a pelvic ultrasound, discuss the outcome and discuss further options. Nothing untoward in respect of the pelvic scan. Benefiting from the topicalvaginal oestrogen presribed, but switching to Estriol cream. Discussed the ongoing problems I have with unauthorised surgery done during a bowl prolapse operation in 2013 using mesh. There are to many difficulties and dangers involved in removing the mesh. Am grateful to Mr Griffiths for the detailed information he has given me about this surgery and the reasons it would be very difficult and not wise to try and remove the mesh. He is the first Consultant who has done this and I have been trying to find out this information for 10 years. I now know what the real situation is and what my true options and possibilities are in dealing with my continuing problems. A successful outcome for me.

Nuffield Health The Holly Hospital

Paediatrics, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, + 10 more

All of the staff at Nuthfield were so kind. Everyone was always smiling and being happy and kind to myself and my partner. From the receptionist who told us where to go and took us to our room. To the night nurse that checked us in to the room. I had multiple nurses come and check on me throughout the time I waited to have the cystoscopy. We were able to get food before and after. We arrived at 07:00 on the 27th, and I can't remember all the lovely people's names who helped us. My only slight criticism would be from arriving at the hospital at 07:00 the actual procedure didn't start till after 09:00 and this gave me lots of time to overthink the procedure. But I think that was a me problem and I also don't know how long these things take to check people in etc. So apologies if it is standard haha.

UK Vein Clinic - Manchester

Vascular Surgery

After trying to get my varicose veins sorted for years, (and unfortunately them getting worse over those years) I finally decided to get treatment from UK Vein Clinic in Manchester. I have had both legs treated using both ablation and foam therapy. The whole process was fantastic. I was treated so kindly by my Dr and the lovely nurses. They explained everything and took great care of me, ensuring I was comfortable. The process was very quick and I felt little discomfort. I was informed of everything happening and lots of aftercare tips. I am so glad that I chose UK Vein Clinic for treatment, their care has been fantastic right from booking a consultation to now, just after treatment. I’m still in my stockings but I am looking forward to the progress over the next few months. Thank you so much.

HCA Healthcare UK The Wellington Hospital

Neurology, Orthopaedic Surgery, + 10 more

My visit was entirely satisfactory. The staff were exceptionally friendly at all times and they seem to meet a lot of them. I was getting informed about what was going to happen to me at all times. The menu was amazing and the whole place seem to be extremely efficiently run My only comment of an adverse nature would be that having been shown to a room on my arrival where my wife carefully unpacked all my belongings she she know sooner had left Than. I had to pack them all up again because I was being transferred to another room and then when I came out of the operating theatre before I went home, I had to wait three hours before I managed to get my belongings back again no book to read or iPad slightly frustrating but that was the only hiccup on an excellent visit.

Daleswood Health

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, General Practice (GP)

Daleswood Health is like a breath of fresh air in the midst of health services in the UK. My GP tries to the best they can but frankly they just cannot be flexible and I'd spend visits trying to to fit in their calendar, leaving me waiting for a rushed 10 minute appointment only to then refer me somewhere else. Something had to change. I'm lucky enough that I can spend a little to get a great service and Daleswood Health really deliver exceptional service. My recent visit was for a mole removal. In and out within 50 minutes and the mole had been removed, fantastic service from Dr Oliver Denton and also not forgetting Mary on reception. So glad I've found them. Definitely my go to for health services and fully recommended from me.

ABBI Clinic - Manchester

Psychiatry, Psychology, + 1 more

I was an online client. My first day and many following days, a laptop was placed somewhere (usually with a very minimal view of part of the room) whilst people in the room had a conversation (often it was staff as other patients had left the room/ spent a lot of time waiting for groups to start/ group leaders). Group timings etc weren't stuck to or structured and there seemed no consistency. The hardest part was having to have an 'assessment' i.e. go through my life background in detail (including trauma) a total of 5 times with different members of staff. I'm sorry to say (and likely it's different in person) but there didn't seem to be any genuine care whatsoever. It was a waste of time for me attending here sadly.

Spencer Private Hospital Ashford

Pain Management, Audiology, + 11 more

Experience OK but to have to travel 80 mile round trip with 24 hrs notice was stressful, for the pre-accessment which I had to ask for, as not arranged. If I had been told on the information letter that if I was taking antibiotics I would need to have 4 weeks clear before I could have my procedure, this would have prevented me from excepting the procedure date I had been given. Therefore would have given the date to someone else. I had two weeks notice of my procedure which is OK if all information had been given to me. Find the administration side lacking. Lovely staff. .

Mr Oliver Dean Stone

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I have had two consultations with Mr Stone so far which have been excellent. Mr Stone is thorough, professional and knowledgeable. He is very caring, patient and an extremely good communicator. I have also been impressed by his comprehensive follow up letters. It is extremely helpful to have the full picture in black and white so one is not relying on memory of all of those medical terms! I am hoping the steroid injections I have received will work wonders but if I do need an operation I have every confidence that Mr Stone will look after me extremely well.

Daleswood Aesthetics

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Dermatology

Fantastic service and advice. Honest, friendly and very helpful whilst being extremely professional. A really good range of options and products, expertly explained and administered. Dr Denton is not only a medical professional but a lovely, caring person dedicated to helping you look and feel better. Visiting Daleswood on many occasions has really helped me with my self-confidence, physical, and mental health. There is no hard sell, and Dr Denton will only recommend what is best for you, explaining the benefits and risks if there are any.

ABBI Clinic - Preston

Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, Psychiatry, + 2 more

Different time slots and sessions or more flexibility. Clearer communication between services and funders. Digital timetable, links and resources could benefit from being clearer/more easy to find. Mixed bag of staff, although the weaker ones did go quite quickly it still felt as though I was a bit of a guinea pig and didn't get as much from those sessions. Core team very caring, compassionate and supportive. Environment is an downside, a shared office building is not the best setting.

Mr Arun Kumar

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I would highly recommend Mr Kumar. He carried out a left total knee replacement on me in October. He fully explained the procedure and aftercare in a clear and understanding manner. His care and empathy was second to none. I am now pain free, mobile and enjoying my day to day activities. I am truly grateful to Mr Kumar and all the staff at The Alexandra Hospital who all went above and beyond during my stay.

Mr Salil Achyut Umranikar

Urologist

Such a wonderful doctor. He completely put my daughter at ease and made her comfortable as she was very nervous about being there! He is obviously extremely smart and knowledgeable and I was so pleased to see him as he understood the problem, which was due to a persistent UTI in my 4 year old daughter, and knew how to treat it correctly. Absolutely brilliant - couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

Dr Ken Darzy

Diabetes & Endocrinology Specialist

Dr Darzy listened to my symptoms in a way that no other doctor has done bedore, and with his knowledge and testing I was finally able to get diagnosed and prescribed the correct treatment for an issue I’ve been suffering with for many many years - where many other doctors have been unable to help. The treatment for me has been life changing, and I am forever grateful to Dr Darzy - thank you!

Mr Jan Herzog

Orthopaedic Surgeon

My daughter, age 12, had a double surgery for an 'S' curve in the summer of 2025. It was a two stage scoliosis correction with anterior and posterior instrumentation in May 2025. We had several appointments with Mr Herzog before a 2 week stay in hospital to undergo two successful operations a week apart.

Miss Roopa Bangari

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

My care under Miss Bangari has been excellent. She took the time to explain my procedure in detail, even drawing out the anatomy so I could fully understand what to expect. Post-surgery, she has been highly responsive to any questions or concerns I have had, and I have felt very supported as a result.
