Eastwood Community Endoscopy Centre LTD

Gastroenterology, General Surgery

I went in today for my first ever colonoscopy. Although I was nervous, every staff member I met made me feel comfortable and at ease. there was a brief 10 minute wait before I saw the nurse, who was very informative about the procedure and took some recordings (blood pressure, heart rate etc.) before asking me some questions. After not very long at all I went into the room to have my procedure and Samer and his team were excellent in talking me through the process, what I might experience, and how long it would be. They regularly checked in on me throughout to ask how I was doing. Regarding the colonoscopy itself - overall I felt no pain at all really - some discomfort from the gas (which they make you aware of) but otherwise it was fine. I chose sedation rather than gas & air, and found this worked well for me. It is an odd sensation in general; but manageable. The procedure took maybe 20 minutes, before I was moved to recovery. The recovery nurse & all staff members there were very friendly. They read me my report, made sure I understood the results, and gave me some biscuits and squash (which I was grateful for after 24H of not eating!) - I was out from here after around 20 minutes, having no notable lingering side effects from either the medication or procedure. Overall, fantastic service from everyone. Thank you so much.

Freedom Vision - Chelmsford

Ophthalmology

I recently had bilateral cataract surgery. From start to finish the treatment I received was excellent. The patient liaison manager was really helpful, friendly, incredibly supportive and a welcome calming influence. I was amazed by the state of the art optical equipment that was available to ensure that my lenses were perfectly suited to the dimensions of my eyes and my prescription, as well as the care that the technicians took while taking the measurements. The optometrists I saw were caring and informative, ensuring that I knew about the different types of intra ocular lenses available and what I may expect from them. They carried out my eye tests with care and patience. The eye surgeon was incredibly experienced and very skilled, and carried out the procedure very efficiently with great care. Now, six weeks post-surgery, I am very grateful of the care I received and the quality and clarity of my lenses; both aspects easily surpassed all my expectations. I would highly recommend Freedom Vision, Chelmsford to anyone considering cataract surgery.

Dr Anoop Shetty

Cardiologist

Dr Anoop Shetty and his team at the London Bridge clinic and hospital can be highly recommended to deal expertly with the investigation, treatment and surgical management of abnormal heart rhythms. In his clinic there was plenty of time to discuss and ask questions about atrial fibrillation, the need for blood thinning medication and the potential benefits and risks associated with ablation surgery. You can expect to wear a heart monitor for a few days with a review of the findings. In my case an additional problem of heart block was identified requiring the surgical insertion of a pacemaker. Whilst in hospital in your own room every member of staff did their job in a very professional, reassuring and friendly manner. Follow-up was equally as thorough ensuring no questions remained unanswered.

Professor Francisco Leyva-Leon

Cardiologist

Listening, compassion, understanding and the ability to communicate in a clear and considerate manner are qualities most patients look for from a medical professional, together with a desire to seek the route cause of a problem and not simply seek to mitigate the symptoms. I was so pleased that Professor Francisco Leyva-Leon demonstrated all of these qualities and having discovered the root cause of my issues, provided the solution. I am very grateful to him and would not hesitate to recommend him

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.

London Digestive Centre

Gastroenterology

I found the reception at ground floor level the only weakness as I was left standing feeling a bit aimless when no one else was at the desk and also I reported someone had been sick in a toilet sink and I was just letting them know, whilst I did not want gratitude for reporting it some greater acknowledgement and action might have been expected. Anyway most importantly Dr Woodland receptionist area and staff on his floor were excellent as they were for Dr Power.

King Edward VII's Hospital

Urology, Dermatology, + 25 more

The staff at the hospital were all very friendly, helpful and efficient. They understood the importance of admission for surgery to the patient and were very supportive. All of the clinical and medical staff were first class, but the support staff were also excellent. The room was clean and comfortable and I was well looked after. The menu options were very good and the food was delicious. I have no hesitation in strongly recommending this excellent hospital.

Mr Shahzad Raja

Cardiothoracic Surgeon

From my first consultation Mr Raja was very helpful, explaining my options for treatment and even arranging for me to discuss an alternative with a colleague. During my stay at Harefield a day didn't go by without some interaction with Mr Shah - he was very enthusiastic about my first steps after surgery! Mr Raja was both friendly and informative throughout my treatment, and help greatly in giving my confidence in the procedure and outcome.

Professor Bloomfield is an exceptional psychiatrist. He balances professional expertise with a very kind, human touch. I never feel rushed during our appointments; he is patient with my questions and always provides well-rounded, informative feedback. He doesn't just provide a service; he provides a thoughtful partnership in mental health. I feel much more confident in my journey thanks to his guidance.

Dr Rajesh Bagtharia

Dr Bagtharia took his time and while we have been in consultation room I felt we are in right hands . The whole consultation it was very good and we are very thankful for all the reassurance and advice we received. Thank you very much Dr Bagtharia!

Dr. Andrew Lewis

Cardiologist

Dr. Lewis was very kind and patient in explaining the clinical reasoning of my symptoms. He was also very considerate when he did the tests to check my conditions. The consultation did not make me stressed or nervous and I feel much more reassured, after my appointment with him. I am very grateful to have been under his care and would definitely recommend Dr. Lewis for other patients.

Dr Milan Anjanappa

Oncologist

I obtained all the information I needed to make a decision on how to move forward with my treatment. Doctor Anjanappa explained everything very clearly and patiently and answered all my questions. The Carebit video failed a couple of times and it was not always easy to hear the specific details of what Dr Anjanappa was saying.

Mr Omotayo Johnson

General Surgeon

Mr Johnson explained everything clearly and listened. He did not rush me and allowed myself and family to ask any questions. My surgery went well and the follow up appointment was soon after. He explained the next steps in my treatment. I found Mr Johnson to be a lovely man who obviously cares about his job and his patients

Dr Luigi Citarella

Dermatologist

I must tell all the process for mole removal by Dr Citarella was perfect in every aspect from the anaesthesia with no pain at all and the procedure fantastically managed and healed...also I had already the histology result and it was ruled out any malignancy! Happy, reassured and well cared, thank you very much!
