Dr. James Noake is not only a phenomenal doctor but also a truly exceptional person. His clinical expertise, commitment, and compassion enabled me to achieve something that had once felt impossible, and I will be forever grateful for his care. I had been training for seven months to take on a double marathon in memory of my brother, who tragically took his own life just over a year ago. The run meant everything to me — not just as a personal challenge, but as a way to honour him and raise money for The Hunchman Trust, a charity that supports young people navigating grief, especially after suicide. By the time race day was in sight, I had already raised £28,000, and the weight of expectation — from myself and from those supporting me — felt enormous. Seventeen days before the event, disaster struck. I was injured, and despite visits to a physio, I was in terrible shape. With less than two weeks to go, I was convinced my dream was over. It was then that my physio referred me to Dr. James Noake, who, upon hearing my story, went to great lengths to fit me into his schedule. My case was complicated. I had an inflamed Kager’s fat pad and a trapped sural nerve, problems made even harder to diagnose because of a previous ankle reconstruction back in 2019. Where others had struggled, Dr. Noake immediately identified the issue. The very next morning, he came in early to give me the treatment and injections I desperately needed. What happened next felt nothing short of remarkable. Days earlier I had been ready to give up, certain I’d have to withdraw from the race. Instead, with Dr. Noake’s expertise and guidance, I was not only able to start but to finish the double marathon. Throughout the event, he made himself available, checking in, offering advice, and guiding me on what I could and couldn’t do to protect myself. Thanks to him, I was able to cross that finish line and, more importantly, honour my brother’s memory in the way I had hoped.

I wanted to share some feedback on my recent appointment. I felt the consultant was quite dismissive and used language that may not have been appropriate — for example, when feeling the lump I was told immediately “this is not cancer.” While I have personal experience in this area and have been through it before, for someone new to this situation such a conclusion could feel very daunting and unsettling. The appointment also felt rushed, particularly after the ultrasound (as the mammogram machine was broken). I left feeling as though my questions were seen as unimportant, and that I was being hurried out because “nothing was wrong.” While I accept the results, I had hoped for a more considered discussion — especially as I’ve had similar lumps removed in the past and wanted to understand the difference this time. Instead, I was simply told to manage the pain, given a leaflet, and advised to take primrose oil. This did not feel like the most supportive approach. To then receive a letter a couple of hours later — before the mammogram had even taken place — dismissing me from the service, felt like a rushed and premature conclusion. I hope this feedback is taken constructively, as the experience could be improved by allowing more time for questions, more sensitivity in communication, and reassurance for patients at what can be an anxious time.

I have recently had a course of Low Level Light Therapy for my Macular Dry Eye condition with Mr Yodaiken at his Dry Eye Clinic in Salford. Booking process is excellent via his very efficient and friendly PA and appointments take place precisely on time. Mr Yodaiken explained everything in great detail prior to my treatment starting that involved an OCT Scan followed with twice weekly sessions for 4 weeks that are completely non invasive. A follow up consultation took place recently, 8 weeks after the final session along with a further OCT Scan for before and after comparison and results. The treatment has been extremely successful and the damaged macular has shown significant improvement in both of my eyes. I am pleased to very highly recommend Mr Yodaiken and upon his sound advice will continue to return for more LLLT in 9 months. Eyes are precious and the cost is well worth it.

Mr Iain Macleod

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I recently had shoulder surgery with Mr. Iain Macleod and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From start to finish, he was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and reassuring. He did a fantastic job correcting my shoulder, and the results have been excellent. What stood out to me was not only his skill as a surgeon, but also the way he and his team looked after me throughout the entire process, from the initial consultation, through the procedure, and into aftercare. I always felt supported, informed, and in safe hands. If you’re looking for a surgeon who is both highly skilled and genuinely cares about his patients, I would wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Iain Macleod. . I’m very grateful for the outstanding care I received.

My wife is in hospital for an operation today and due to prior anxieties over NHS treatment, we asked the hospital for me to stay with my wife in the room throughout including overnight. They have been most accommodating and have bent over backwards to make it work and kept me fully informed throughout how the operation is going. The consultant was more than happy for me to ask questions both during consultations and the surgery today and has given great confidence that all will go as planned. Ward staff have been more than helpful to both of us and treated us as individuals and my wife has been provided a high level of care throughout.

I went in to Montrose after struggling with the group situations and the mix with male and female. I felt the experience of being able to share my deepest darkest secrets one to one was extremely therapeutic. The therapy I got was second to none and the food was cooked fresh each day with my one to one member of staff. Having lived with food intolerances my whole life the staff couldn’t have been more accommodating to my dietary needs. All in all a tough experience but the chance for me to grow emotionally was successful. All in all I’m a satisfied customer and would highly recommend. Thanks again team. 🙏

I recently visited Niva Medical Clinic in Stanmore for the first time and made an appointment to Dr Varsani regarding some problems I have been having regulating my high blood pressure. He listened to the issues and was very helpful in suggesting future management, including lifestyle changes, which I very much appreciated. Also I really was impressed with the very kind receptionist I met initially and shall continue to attend the clinic when necessary. Mrs A.R. Edgware

Spire Leeds Hospital

We were anxious about our daughter Abigail going under anaesthetic but put completely at ease by the friendly and professional team. Mr Moor gave a detailed description of the procedure and we particularly liked that our daughter was given the choice of IV or gas administration of anaesthesia. Nurse Jen provided exceptional care and was kind and compassionate throughout. Aftercare advice on discharge was very thorough. The ward was spotlessly clean and food very good.

Dr Sheetal Sirohi

She made me feel welcomed and through her bedside manner allowed me to be honest and share my thoughts and feelings without making me feel judged. Whenever she would need to explain her thinking or describe anything she always maintained good communication and spoke in a way that was clear and easy to understand.
