Practice Plus Group Hospital, Barlborough

I had knee replacement surgery at the Practice Plus hospital at Barlborough on 29th November. The pain I experienced during the two weeks following the surgery on a scale of 1 to 10 I would rate at 8 to 9. Now that I am in my eight week of recovery my pain level is 1 or2 I had a problem in that during the first 2 weeks after surgery I was hardly able to sleep due to the pain when lying down and some nights I had zero hours of sleep. After discussion with the hospital pharmacist it became evident that one of the pain killing medicines I had been prescribed had insomnia as one of it’s side effects. After stopping this medication and taking an alternative my sleep pattern returned to normal and my recovery accelerated. From the experiences of friends who had undergone this surgery I knew that physiotherapy was the key to a successful outcome. The physiotherapy I received at Barlborough was exceptional. By following their exercise plans and receiving guidance at my follow-up visits I am now able walk for one hour virtually pain free, ride my static bike at home and if all goes well should be able to ride my bike on the road in a few weeks time. Thank you Barlborough Stephen M

I can’t recommend Debra highly enough as a physio. I had physio for my middle child 5 years ago with Debra and again with my now 10 month old baby. Debra is calm, patient, and so knowledgeable, which instantly put both me and my baby at ease. She has a wonderful way of engaging with babies, turning each session into something that feels more like play than therapy, while still being incredibly effective. She always takes the time to explain what she’s doing and how we can support our baby’s progress at home, which has been so reassuring as a parent. We’ve always seen such positive progress under her care, and I’m so grateful to have had her support. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Debra to any parent looking for a skilled, compassionate, and trustworthy paediatric physio.

North Wales Eye Specialist Centre

Ophthalmology

When I entered the premises I couldn’t believe the transformation that had taken place as I was familiar with the building when it was a hairdressing salon. It was spacious, immaculate and tranquil. Having been quite anxious before my appointment, I quickly relaxed as all the staff were extremely friendly and kind. All the tests were performed swiftly and smoothly with every concern for my comfort and my understanding of the procedures involved. Mrs. Matthews explained my forthcoming cataract surgery clearly, comprehensively and reassuringly and I was very pleased to be offered the surgery I such a short space of time. All in all I couldn’t have wished for a better experience with North Wales Eye Specialist Centre.

I attended an appointment with a consultant who immediately ascetained that I would benefit from an x-ray. I was provided a form, send through to the x-ray lounge and proceeded to have an x-ray immediately. I then returned to the consultant and knocked on the door expecting to have to wait and was called in before I could even make it to my seat. We then discussed the results and agreed an MRI would be required. I then booked this immediately for two days later. I was in and out in 18 minutes. The whole experience was exceptional.

Newmedica Plymouth

Ophthalmology

I was very apprehensive about eye surgery, but Tom Cudrnak Ophthalmology put my mind at ease. The procedure was painless, swift, and professional. I felt completely safe and supported, especially under Roni's warm, friendly guidance and that of the other team members. I felt in safe hands from the very first consultation to the final follow-up. It was a fantastic process. The results of the eye operation are miraculous and life-changing, and it means so much to me to have my sight back, thanks to you.

Dr Andreea Anton

Dermatologist

I visited Dr. Anton for my son’s acne, and I was very impressed. She listened carefully to our concerns, explained the diagnosis in simple terms, and outlined a clear treatment plan. The treatment she offered really helped my son. The clinic was organized, and the staff were welcoming and efficient. We left feeling informed, reassured, and confident in the care provided. I would definitely recommend Dr. Anton to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate dermatologist.

Mr Andrew Shepherd

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I had a full knee replacement and was absolutely delighted with the outcome. As expected, the first two weeks were sore with limited movement, but from there on the progress was fantastic. I increased the level of exercise and was so pleased with the range of movement and knee bend I was able to achieve. Strength increased and by twelve weeks post op, I was back playing club tennis. I really can’t say enough re Andrew’s professionalism and competence. A complete success.

Mr Manaf Khatib

Plastic Surgeon

I was referred to Mr Khatib to have a basal cell carcinoma removed from my cheek, just below my eye. He immediately put me at ease with his clear explanation of options and what they involved. Mr Khatib performed the surgery with great care and skill. My resulting scar is hardly noticeable and I'm delighted with the results. I couldn't have been in better hands, he is a genuinely lovely and authentic person as well. Would so highly recommend him to anyone.

The Prostate Centre

Urology, Oncology

I received excellent care from Mr Challacombe for prostate cancer, diagnosed in 2023. I had a robotic total prostatectomy for a high grade cancer and two and a half years later I remain cancer free, with normal urine continence and satisfactory recovery in erectile function. My follow-up appointments are always on time as scheduled. I highly recommend the professional care provided by Prof Challacombe to any man faced with a diagnosis of prostate cancer.

London Bridge Sports Medicine

Sports & Exercise Medicine

Dr.Raiman has been exceptionally supportive and thoughtful through the whole process. I have been struggling with a very painful shoulder and arm for a long time - he very efficiently organised a MRI scan. His diagnoses were very clear, he took his time to explain to me what is happening and patiently listened to all my questions. He also suggested clear plans for my next few steps so I am very much reassured. Thanks very much for all your help :)

Ms Lisa Jagan

Ophthalmologist

I no longer practice as a nurse and always set a high standard when it comes to my own care. Dr. Jagan exceeded that standard! I recognized her skill and manner at my initial visit and it continued from beginning to end of my eyelid surgery. My follow up call was delivered in the same manner. The staff was attentive and caring and also deserve recognition. Thank you for taking such great care!

Ms Ifigeneia Mourelatou

Psychologist

Ifi is kind, patient, caring, knowledgeable and professional. The support we have received has made a real difference, to our son (who is nearly two) with his social and language skills and I would strongly recommend Ifi. It's been a pleasure to receive ESDM parent coaching and I have learnt so much about how to engage and interact with my son. Thanks for all your support.

Mr Tony Antonios

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Mr Antonios was the surgeon that gave me a new shoulder, ball and socket in December 2024. Within 3/4 months I could use it as normal. I did all the exercises the physio gave me and the operation has been a complete success. Mr Antonios has been friendly and caring in my 3 visits and monitored my progress for a year.

Mr David Van den Haute

Osteopath

I've been seeing David for just over a year now for various issues. He's helped me with long term migraines and persistent headaches, a rolled ankle, lower back pain, shoulder injuries, and generally kept my body from falling to bits from working 9 hours a day at a desk and running around after two little people!

Mr Karan Jolly

ENT Surgeon

I saw Mr Jolly for my nasal problem which was misdiagnosed by 2 previous consultants. Mr Jolly was very professional and informative throughout the consultation. He was very knowledgeable and his experience shows. I would highly recommend Mr Jolly for any nose and sinus problem. Thank you
