Find your trusted Doctor

HCA UK at The Shard

General Practice (GP), Obstetrics & Gynaecology

Dr. Kariyawasam offers a rare and exceptional combination of deep medical expertise and genuine compassion. She is highly skilled in diagnosing her patients with accuracy and efficiency, while also attending thoughtfully to the human concerns that naturally arise when one needs medical evaluation or treatment. Her follow-up letters are always clear, thorough, and truly helpful. Even her secretary is accessible, kind, and supportive, which makes the entire experience smooth and reassuring. Dr. Kariyawasam initially became my doctor by chance, as I needed an urgent appointment and she happened to be available. It is no coincidence, however, that she will remain my doctor moving forward. Her care is outstanding in every way.

Mr Vincent Dubois

Ophthalmologist

Very clear explanation of what he could do for both of my eyes and possible problems for him due to some medical problems I have ( very over active thyroid gland and no natural hearing but have a cochlear implant on left side ). Also clear explanation of numbing my eye or general and whether one eye or both eyes having cateract removal and stents for glaucoma in one surgery. Every aspect of surgeries considered, explained and fully understood by me so I could make a decision with regard to surgery.

Mr Sumit Midya

General Surgeon

My entire experience under Mr Sumit Midya has been exceptional. From the initial consultation to the day of surgery and all follow-up appointments, his clinical expertise, clear communication, and exemplary bedside manner were outstanding. His technical precision, calm reassurance, and meticulous attention to detail made the whole process smooth and stress-free. I am extremely impressed with his professionalism and highly recommend him for anyone seeking first-class surgical care.

Clayton Ward at Queen Charlotte's & Chelsea Hospital

Obstetrics & Gynaecology

I would very highly recommend the Clayton ward. We have had two babies there and were really well looked after by kind, happy staff (doctors, midwives, assistants, catering and reception) who taught us a huge amount about how to care for a newborn. Having access to 121 support from midwives anytime day or night is just invaluable. The food was very good (for hospital food) and we genuinely looked forward to it each day - it really helped us recover as sleep deprived parents.

Mr Winston Kim

Orthopaedic Surgeon

From the outset I found the service and care provided by Mr Kim and his support team was first class. The benefits, potential pitfalls and process from start to finish of having a hip replacement was clearly explained. I'm pleased to share that my new hip has been a complete success and I'm back playing my favourite sport tennis 7 months on from the operation. A big thank you to Mr Kim and his team for making my decision to having a hip replacement a successful one 🙌

Mr Ian Hunt

Cardiothoracic Surgeon

My session with Mr Hunt was a very positive and, dare I say, pleasurable experience. I came in nervous and anxious. He calmed me down very smoothly and took me through the scan results in a professional and friendly manner. He answered my questions expertly and simply, helping me understand every single detail with relative ease. I left in a great mood, with my spirits uplifted. It was a very good session, and I felt well taken of by Mr Hunt.

Quality Dental : Horsham

Dentistry

I'm sure it was being decorated when I visited 6 months ago. Still is. Before appointment they send forms to be completed online. No problem with that except one is for COVID asking if anybody on the family has been to a country on the government red list or been told to isolate by NHS. Neither of those things happen now. I raise it every time and nothing changes. Almost as if nobody reads the reviews. So much for "quality"

Dr. Simona Deplano

Haematologist

Simona is: a) Extremely knowledgeable b) Her empathy level is very high c) She is very efficient and always helpful d) I am overseas a lot but Simona is always available for advice e) I was diagnosed with Myelodysplasia in 2006 f) I no longer attend Kings College because I have found Simona at Hammersmith Hospital much more attuned to my problems g) She is a treasure and the NHS is lucky to have her on board!

Nuffield Health Glasgow Hospital

General Practice (GP), General Surgery, + 6 more

Everything about my two night stay in the Nuffield was excellent. All the staff - auxiliaries, nurses and physiotherapists - were kind, courteous and always on hand if I needed them. The room, while basic, was very comfortable and the choice and quality of food could not have been better. I wouldn’t hesitate not hesitate to recommend Nuffield Glasgow to friends and family.

Spire Cheshire Hospital

Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Breast Surgery, + 17 more

The Spire Cheshire has a calm atmosphere and a good coffee machine. The front of house staff are friendly and clear. The waiting area is clean. The staff and service in the mammogram area are also friendly and the person who handled my mammogram was very caring and conscious of the challenging situation for me and treated me with respect and dignity.

Mr Jonathan Simmons

Plastic Surgeon

Brilliant, listened to me, didn't jump straight to a diagnose in the first 2 mins of the meet, unlike some where else I went Actually did some hands on assessments explained what he was doing and why, again shows his knowledge in his field of expertise. Came up with a plan and wrote a detailed letter on what he thinks should happen next

TRUST Dental

Dentistry

I have always had a phobia about dentist s having had bad experiences as a child. Although my phobia has not gone away I found the whole experience very calm. The receptionist with her friendly manner relaxed me straight away. The dentist has a calming manner also and did not push me from my comfort zone. Overall a good experience.

Perfect Balance Clinic - Richmond

Osteopathy, Physiotherapy

I visited this clinic for ongoing shoulder pain and had a great experience. From the first session, the team was friendly, professional, and took the time to understand what was going on. Everything was explained clearly, and I was given treatment along with some easy exercises to do at home.

Professor Howard Branley

Respiratory Doctor

Professor Howard Branley is very friendly and easy to get on with. He explained things very well and listened carefully to everything I said. The appointment was efficiently run and I got the results quickly. I highly recommend Professor Branley to anyone

Dr. Michael Zemenides

General Practitioner, Primary Care Doctor

Dr. Zemenides quickly pinpointed my meniscus injury, organised an MRI, and guided me clearly through the whole process. His calm, thorough care helped me finally understand my knee pain and prepare for rehab. Highly recommend.
