The Focal Therapy Clinic

Oncology

I went for an independent assessment of my prostate cancer diagnosis with a possible view to private treatment if I did not get chosen for focal therapy on the NHS trial that I hade been offered. Also to help me make my mind up which of the many options offered to me by the NHS A consultation was quickly arranged via Mr Doherty’s p.a. for £250 which my wife and I attended. I was given an excellent appraisal at the meeting followed by a letter that outlined a meeting Mr Doherty had with his peers to discuss my case. The letter confirmed that in their opinion focal therapy was a good option in my particular case having had access to my medical records This in my view was an excellent service for the fee but I was lucky enough to be chosen for this focal treatment under the NHS trial, I would have gone private had not my private medical insurance rejected my claim (that is another story) I am however indebted to Mr Doherty’s help and service which he provided So far the day operation held in Oxford on the 10th Nov 2025 has had very few downsides although I am still awaiting the final result on Jan 13th 2026 and hoping for a positive result from my consultant on this day The treatment was far less intrusive that the other options offered to me for which I count myself very lucky. Under the trial I will be monitored so that the NHS can find out how the longer term prognosis is for focal treatments so they are able to offer this more widely in the NHS. For my selfish sake I hope that it is good news for me and will enable others to benefit from my experience now and in the future. I am aged 74 and look forward to good health for the foreseeable future.🤞

Mr Tony Chalhoub

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I have been Chalhoub's patient for a decade. I have never met another clinician who is so accomplished in knowledge and expertise, but who also listens to his patients closely with insight and understanding. My personal experience of endometriosis is that it is linked with other inflammatory conditions that impact my quality of life. Mr Chalhoub has a rare understanding of how distressful it is to live with a chronic illness while trying to live a fulfilling life. He acknowledges the connections between symptoms and conditions, where patients often end up in medical silos that fail to join up the dots. He is patient and compassionate, and provides the safest, most expert care when surgery is required (I have had three surgeries with him in total). All of my communications with his clinic, including with Sarah, the practice manager, have been warm, supportive and deeply respectful. Advocating for outstanding patient care so that we can live fulfilling and healthy lives is the guiding ethos of Mr. Chalhoub's practice. There were no delays in communication at any stage of my consultation, and I was kept fully informed of all updates. This practice is the gold standard of how patient care should be provided across all healthcare departments. I cannot recommend highly enough.

Mr Sumit Midya

General Surgeon

I cannot recommend Mr. Midya highly enough. From my initial consultation through to post-operative care, he was the epitome of kindness, professionalism, and expertise. What truly set him apart was his ability to make a potentially stressful situation completely manageable. He is incredibly knowledgeable, taking the time to explain every detail of the surgery in a way that was clear and reassuring. Crucially, his fantastic sense of humour was a genuine comfort—it instantly put me at ease before the operation and even had me laughing post-surgery, (even if it did test his handiwork!) which was a brilliant start to my recovery. I had complete faith in his abilities, and the results of the surgery have been excellent. I would have absolutely no hesitation in choosing him again for any future procedure.

Dr Lafina Diamandis

General Practitioner

I have been receiving help from Dr Lafina Diamandis for my ongoing medical issues for some time now. Honestly, Dr Diamandis has been very caring and helpful. She's relentless in trying to find the solution and the right help for me, going over and beyond just to help me. Even if all other ideas fail, she always tries to find another way, not giving up on me. I travel miles to London to see Dr Lafina Diamandis because she is a breath of fresh air, and very worth of my time to see someone like her who is passionate about their job and cares about her patience. I couldn't thank her enough for her help and support. Words can't fully capture it; I'm forever grateful for Dr Lafina's help.

The London Dermatology Centre

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Dermatology

I recently visited the dermatologist for a second follow-up regarding my son’s fungal infection, and I’m extremely pleased with the care we received. The doctor was thorough, attentive, and took the time to explain the progress of my son’s treatment in a clear and reassuring way. We never felt rushed, and every concern was addressed with patience and expertise. Thanks to their guidance, my son’s condition has improved significantly. The clinic is well-organized, the staff is friendly, and the overall experience has been excellent. I truly appreciate the high level of care and would highly recommend this dermatologist to anyone seeking professional and compassionate skin treatment.

Mr Yamoah has changed my life and I will forever be grateful. For almost ten years my GP told me I had IBS and wouldn’t take my pain seriously. This time last year I reached breaking point and didn’t think I would ever feel better. I’m so glad I decided to seek private care. Mr. Yamoah is the first medical professional that has taken me seriously and not made me feel like a nuisance or hypochondriac. Within the space of three months my endometriosis and dermoid cyst were diagnosed and successfully removed and I finally feel like myself again. The nature of the condition means that it will return but I feel so much more confident being in the excellent care of Mr Yamoah.

Mr Akash Patel

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I saw Mr Patel for ongoing knee arthritis; he discussed all the treatment options both surgical and non-surgical with associated benefits and risks. He provided me with written information and links to ensure better understanding of available options. I had total knee replacement by Mr Patel at Cavell Hospital in October, I am doing well after 6 weeks and would recommend him without reservation to anyone needing his exceptional surgical skills. He has great bedside manners, clear communication skills and a friendly personality which makes it easy for individuals to decide on best possible treatment available for them.

Miss Kazal Omar

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

My experience with Miss Omar has only ever been positive! I found Miss Omar took the time to listen to me and understand me, as a person. This helped me to feel heard and understood; something that I consider to be very important. Miss Omar always clearly explained her thinking to me, often drawing diagrams which I very much appreciated as a visual person! Miss Omar's knowledge and experience is also second to none. She really is an expert in her field and I always trusted her. It feels difficult for me to thank Miss Omar enough for how she has changed my life. I will be forever grateful.

She was professional, and extremely thorough, Gurpreet answered all of my questions and was very reassuring. I then saw Professor Jain who discussed the test results and explained the best way forward to address my condition. I have total confidence in his professional expertise and I appreciate that I am being looked after by a first class team. Thank you.

Check4Cancer

Oncology, Diagnostics & Testing

With a history of long term sunbed use and holidays abroad i decided to book an appointment for a skin check. The check was done manually and not a machine like other clinics advertise. The nurse was extremely friendly and I felt comfortable straight away. She conducted the examination and fed back to me on everything she found as she went along. I had a few questions to ask regarding sun exposure and found her very knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend the clinic and have gained lots of information I can use for the future.

Midland Eye

Ophthalmology

As a healthcare professional I know what to look for when choosing health care services. Midlands Eye was absolutely fantastic. I know that I was in safe hands as soon as I walked in. Every single team member that I met during my visits were exceptionally caring answering all of my questions and guiding me through information gathering and decision making giving me all of the time that I needed. It was clear that everyone at Midland Eye work together for the best outcomes of their patients.

Berkshire Imaging

Diagnostics & Testing, Imaging (Scans), + 1 more

they were very considerate considering I was terrified as once before I had to press the button. I couldn’t go through with it and I had to go to an open scanner as they were about to place me through. I had to stop them. They gave me time to recompose and got me to look backwards and upwards and out through the exposed end and that made the whole experience different can’t tell you how relieved I am to get through that. I’m highly claustrophobic so yes, the experience was a positive one.

Mr Sameh Dimitri

General Surgeon

Mr Dimitri is very personable and an excellent consultant. I was booked in to have my varicose veins glued, he explained the procedure thoroughly. I was extremely nervous on the day but both he and Carys were patient and kind, they even put my choice of film on the TV to watch during the procedure! After being very self conscious of my unsightly veins they are now nowhere to be seen. Excellent results and I really couldn’t be happier!
