Vision Scotland Edinburgh

Ophthalmology, Optometry

I have been very happy with my overall experience at Vision Scotland Edinburgh. The staff were both friendly and professional. I was well informed regarding my choices and the procedure. I have been thrilled with the result of the cataract surgery. I was given an appointment very soon after the referral. I would however like to let you know how I felt the experience on the day of the operation could have been improved. Firstly I was not sent the Post Op information which would have been most helpful to read before the procedure. Secondly I got very cold in theatre and was given a blanket but it did take me ages to warm up. It would have been better to have been given a blanket before the procedure started. There is a lot of cold water being used which does add to the chill. Thirdly I was not told to bring sunglasses for the journey home or to bring analogies both of which I would very much appreciated as I lived over a hour away. On the journey home I became extremely uncomfortable. Finally the roof of my mouth and tongue got a little burnt I think by the coffee as they must have been a little bit anaesthetised still when I had the coffee. The coffee however i have to say was absolutely welcome and the best thing along with the toasted teacake. I found it very reassuring to have a telephone number to call which I did use. I also very much appreciate the phone call from the nurse a couple of days post op. I hope you find the above comments of use. I do not wish to criticise as overall it was an extremely good experience and I would and have already recommended Vision Scotland. ( I did tell my neighbour to ask for a blanket!)

Dr Kristy Fenton

Psychiatrist

Kristy was exceptional. We came to her in deep confusion and worry about our child's burnout. She was immediately kind, clear-thinking, and deeply helpful and reassuring. She transformed a chaotic and stressful time by showing us a path to understanding the burnout and establishing the medical reasons behind it. Everything got better once Kristy came on board. We would recommend her AuDHD assessment very much. It was detailed, compassionate, interpretative, tailored to understanding a mix of characteristics, including PDA, and she is hands down outstanding. I have recommended Kristy to many people since. She engages very warmly with the child and establishes trust, and makes parents feel they are not alone in helping their struggling child. Her diagnostic reports (ours were ADHD and ASD with PDA) are detailed, all-rounded, supportive and compassionate, and help you understand your child's inner situation more than before. She is warm and funny and we feel very fortunate we found her. 10/10 recommendation from our family.

Mrs Emma Eaton

Acupuncturist

Emma is not only an exceptional acupuncturist who works her magic with needles, but also someone who instantly puts you at ease. From the moment you step into her room, her loving nature and bright, colourful personality lift your spirit and make you feel truly cared for. Emma doesn’t just treat symptoms — she transforms the whole experience. She helps you sleep deeply through the night, restores your energy, and supports your body in regaining balance. She also gently guides you to release emotional weight and reconnect with yourself. You leave her sessions feeling lighter, clearer, and renewed. She is, without a doubt, one of the best in her field. I wholeheartedly recommend Emma to anyone seeking better sleep, fertility support, improved digestion, or relief from pain anywhere in the body — including the soul. Emma will look after you with genuine care, warmth, and expertise.

Mr Preetkiron Bhal

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I have given information on my excellent contact with Mrs. Hikary Bahl and the decision to transfer my care to Mr. Preetkiron Bahl for surgery. I found Mr. Bahl extremely helpful. He gave me a very clear picture of the issues involved in the surgery and the possible outcomes. I went into surgery feeling well informed and clear about all the possibilities. Happily all went very well and his advice on the way forward is clear. From both Mr. and Mrs. Bahl I received very clear feedback on our consultations and test results and the way forward. In both their hands I have received an excellent and very professional service which has guided me through life issues which were distressing and embarrassing and this has been achieved leaving me feeling well, happy, reassured and once again part of the human race. I can only express my absolute gratitude to them both.

The Women's Health GP

General Practice (GP)

Having been to several medical professionals in my life, I can honestly say the care provided by Dr Katie Cowie is exceptional. She has a great bedside manner, there is no judgement and she is, very knowledgable and understanding. Personably speaking, I would now always consult her on my journey through peri-menopause and beyond. She is well worth the cost for such excellent one to one care. I also see her for weight loss and again, for anyone contemplating medical assisted weight loss, I would always recommend going through someone like Dr Cowie. The assistance she provides with her vast knowledge on the subject is invaluable. I’m so grateful to have met her. and I recommend her to everyone I know going through any women’s health issues.

Mr Steve Bromage

Urologist

Very professional, well informed, open and friendly. I had a vasectomy 16 years before and wanted a reversal. Mr Bromage was open about the chances of it working after such a length of time but seemed confident. He also did a sperm retrieval procedure at the same time which was put in storage in case the reversal wasn't successful then we could try IVF. On the day of surgery Mr Bromage kept me well informed and made sure my wife was kept up to date regularly. The whole process from admission to discharge went as smoothly as could be. Exactly a year after my reversal procedure my wife gave birth to our healthy baby boy. I would highly recommend Mr Bromage to anyone looking for a vasectomy reversal.

Cromwell Hospital

Paediatrics, Cardiology, + 17 more

My most recent visit was for an MRI scan which occurred in in the mobile unit. My oncologist requested a full spinal scan as well as a head and neck scan. The radiographer told me that this wasn’t possible then proceeded to ask me to choose one or the other. I wasn’t qualified to make this decision as both were equally important. There was insufficient information given as to the reason for not being able to have the scans I was booked in for, which really wasn’t good enough. Having waited quite a few weeks for this appointment I am annoyed that I will have to return next week to have the spinal scan. I expect better.

The Harborne Hospital, part of HCA Healthcare UK

Cardiology, Gastroenterology, + 10 more

The imaging team — particularly R. Wilson and L. Kuriakose — were outstanding. Their efficiency, professionalism, and the way they worked with me throughout the treatment were superb. In contrast, communication from the reception team was limited. There was little information provided regarding waiting times or updates, and my next of kin were not kept informed about what was happening or how long the process might take. This created unnecessary uncertainty during an already stressful time. Parking was also extremely challenging, to the point where travelling by train would likely have been easier.

Mr Vikesh Patel

Ophthalmologist

Mr. Patel carried out my upper Blepharoplasty. I couldn’t happier with both the experience and results. From the very first consultation he was completely honest, professional and incredibly calming, which put me at ease. He took time to explain everything clearly, answered all my questions and made sure I felt fully informed and confident at every stage. His manner is kind and reassuring and his skill and attention to detail are evident in the outcome. I am very grateful for his care and expertise and would recommend him to anyone considering this procedure.

Mr Anthony Antoniou

General Surgeon

I have been in Mr Antoniou's care for over 3 years now and I feel blessed to have had him as my surgeon and the lead healthcare specialist dealing with my cancer journey. Mr Antoniou always listens to my concerns and is consistently supportive at every appointment. Having experienced cancer moving through my body I don't think I could be in better hands of have more professional care I feel very comfortable and confident in the ongoing monitoring that Mr Antoniou is managing for me.

Mr Sam Datta

Urologist

Mr Sam Datta's care was exceptional - he explained everything about the procedure in LAYMAN'S TERMS making it so easy to understand. He made a very traumatic experience much easier to bear!!! His after care was absolutely BRILLIANT I was amazed that he visited me after the operation before he went home. I would have no hesitation in recommending Mr Datta for his outstanding skill and care. Cannot praise him enough!

Bristol Menopause Clinic

Public Health Medicine, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, + 1 more

Everyone at the Menopause Clinic was so kind, friendly and welcoming, it made the whole experience so much more manageable. I'm so grateful that places like this are finally now starting to exist for women's health, as this area has been woefully neglected for so long. I felt really supported and listened too, plus the doctors actually have the expertise and knowledge to advise properly. Thank you so much!

Dr. Maria Pournara

Psychologist

I reached out for support with anxiety and relationship issues at a time when things felt overwhelming. The sessions with Maria helped me make sense of my thoughts and patterns and gave me clarity I didn’t have before. I noticed real changes in how I handled both my anxiety and my relationships. I’m grateful for the support and would recommend Maria to anyone struggling in similar ways.

Elanic

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Dermatology, + 7 more

Everthing was fully explained to me before and after surgery. Got great support from Johnross for the first phone call. Surgery was booked within a matter of weeks. Staff looked after me with extreme care. I have been waiting 18mnth NHS and this was my only solution as my condition had really deteriorated. Elanic looked after me really well

Loughview Health

General Practice (GP)

Dr Moore was absolutely so lovely and I felt confident with her. I am glad I made the appointment. It’s great to know I can get to see a GP quickly and not get stressed trying to get through on the phone to NHS GP. If I need to return I certainly will and would recommend Loughview Health to any of my family and friends.

The Capsule Clinic

Gastroenterology

The whole process was incredibly easy. The appointment was quickly made and all the information I received was very clear. Dr Campbell was very nice and reassuring. The Endosign procedure that I had was very quick and completely painless. I suffered no after effects. I completely recommend this service
