Mr Hemant Vakharia

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I am deeply thankful to Mr. Vakharia and his team for the exceptional care provided before, during, and after my recent endometriosis surgery. His patient-centred approachfostered complete trust in the process throughout. My initial consultation with Mr. Vakharia was due to complaints of excruciating menstrual pain that had eventually become constant. I was grateful that he listened to my symptoms patiently and did not dismiss my pain, respecting my feeling that "something isn't right." He immediately referred me for a diagnostic ultrasound, which subsequently confirmed the diagnosis of endometriosis. Following the diagnosis, Mr. Vakharia thoroughly reviewed all available treatment options, clearly explaining the risks and benefits of each. Crucially, I never felt pressured; he emphasised that the final decision was mine, based on my lifestyle and preferences. When I chose surgery, he advised that it would need to be a joint procedure with a colorectal surgeon due to the complex nature of my endometriosis. Mr. Jenkins, colorectal surgeon was also very thorough and explained his part in the surgery very patiently. On the day of surgery, the bedside manner of the entire team—including the colorectal surgeon, the anaesthesiologist, and Mr. Vakharia himself—was phenomenal. I felt incredibly assured and supported entering the operating theatre. Post-surgery, I felt fully supported throughout my recovery in the hospital. Mr. Vakharia personally visited me multiple times during my stay, which was hugely reassuring and helped ease any anxieties. One month post-surgery, I am recovering exceptionally well. The debilitating pain I experienced before the procedure is now almost entirely resolved. To put it simply, I feel I have my life back. I am deeply thankful for Mr. Vakharia's surgical skill, dedication, and compassionate approach to women's health.

Bristol Menopause Clinic

Public Health Medicine, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, + 1 more

I wanted to share how positive my most recent visit to Bristol Menopause Clinic was. From the moment I arrived, I felt truly listened to, believed and validated. My experiences of PMDD and perimenopause were taken seriously, without minimising or rushing, and I felt fully supported in making decisions about my care. Since the appointment, I genuinely cannot believe the difference I feel within myself. The impact on my wellbeing has been significant, both emotionally and physically, and for the first time in a long while I feel hopeful and grounded in my body again. Compassionate, knowledgeable and person-centred care makes such a difference, and this clinic offers exactly that. I am incredibly grateful for the support and would wholeheartedly recommend Bristol Menopause Clinic to anyone navigating PMDD or their perimenopause journey.

Dr Mark Davies

Cardiologist

After my atrial fibrillation (AFib) diagnosis, I booked an appointment with Dr Davies at the Park Hospital. He explained the treatment options: medication, a cardioversion (an electrical reset of the heart), or an ablation. His manner and experience are second to none. He helped me understand the options and I decided upon the RF ablation using the new state of the art facility at the Park. Dr Davies and his brilliant team carried out the procedure and the ITU aftercare team were equally impressive. I’m very pleased to say it went well and heart is now back in normal sinus rhythm, and I’m expected to make a full recovery. I would have no hesitation in highly recommending Dr Davies and everyone at the Park Hospital.

Professor Paul Fields

Haematologist

I cannot express enough gratitude to Prof Field and his entire team for the exceptional care I received. From my first consultation through every stage of my treatment, I was treated with kindness, professionalism, and compassion. Prof Field’s expertise, calm reassurance, and clear communication gave me confidence and comfort during my most challenging time. His team were outstanding Lester, Gaynor and Charli and all treatment team who were supportive, attentive, and always approachable. I will always be thankful for the care I have received and feel extremely fortunate to have been treated by Prof Field. Thank you for everything you do.

VISIO Health

Ophthalmology

All the staff at Visio have been friendly, professional and highly skilled. Communication is a key to their success and being able to reassure the patient and keep them fully informed. Giving the gift of clear vision. Back to a patient is an amazing thing and they clearly take great pleasure and pride in being able to give that gift. I shaved without my glasses for the first time in many years, I can drive and get about my daily business without glasses. I am actually typing this out on my phone without glasses. If you were glasses for everything you will understand how happy I am not to have to rely on them now. Thank you Visio.

Osteopath West

Neurology, Osteopathy, + 2 more

I had an acute pain in my right leg and had difficulty walking. Having had IDD treatment at Osteopath West before for sciatica I called and was given an appointment later that day. On arrival i was given a thorough examination and it was decided that I most likely had a pulled muscle as well as a nerve issue. I had some deep massage on my back and leg followed by an IDD session. The result today is that the pain is considerably better and i can now walk mush better than before. I am grateful for the prompt appointment and the service I received and would recommend Osteopath West to people in a similar position.

When I telephoned to make my appointment - during early afternoon -your receptionist was amazing! So many times since pandemic, in my experience businesses seem to have cut back on providing that so important first line of contact with a person who is friendly, welcoming and listens making intelligent comments and is really helping the caller. This was one if the best experiences I have met with lately - I can't praise the young lady enough - she's a real asset to the Practice. Mark was also amazing - but I've had treatment from his before some years ago so I knew what to expect and wasn't disappointed!

Skylight Psychiatry

Psychiatry

Overall a good experience except the wait time for the report. The clinicians were professional and friendly. The administration staff were also professional and helpful. The reports are very thorough, clear and professional. The report was over 4 weeks past the date it was expected / had been told. This proved to be extremely stressful. For me it would have been better to advertise a longer wait time and deliver it sooner rather than the other way around. Of course I accept that delays can occur. Overall a good experience and would recommend. Thank you.

ADHD @ Well Life Clinic

General Practice (GP)

I had a very positive experience with ADHD @ Well Life Clinic. From the first point of contact, the process felt professional, supportive, and well-structured. The clinician was knowledgeable, attentive, and took the time to really listen, which made me feel understood rather than rushed or judged. The assessment was thorough, clear, and handled with care, and I felt supported throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone seeking an ADHD assessment in a respectful, compassionate, and professional environment.

One Hatfield Hospital

Audiology, Cardiology, + 21 more

I waited longer than usual for my appointment but Mr Sharma was very apologetic. He examined and more importantly listened to me about my concerns. The follow up letter arrived promptly so action could be taken. He gave me a referral for an appointment to have steroid injection which I obtained within 24 hrs. Sadly the referral letter had a couple of mistakes but these were rectified very quickly. Very impressed with the process and we are all individuals so mistakes can happen.

Newmedica Newcastle

Ophthalmology

The surgery is the 2nd cataract operation I have had in 3 months. It is painless and the outcome is unimaginable. Mr Shafiq is a highly skilled surgeon, he has literally turned my vision back to my late 20's before I was required to ear glasses. The facility is far superior to your average NHS hospital. The staff are dedicated, friendly and professional. They are patient and nothing is too much trouble if you have questions or need reassurance. This has been an amazing experience

Dr. Michael Zemenides

General Practitioner, Primary Care Doctor

5 stars all the way . Dr Zemenides is the most friendly , caring, down to earth and knowledgeable GP I have been to .

Would be great with kids - I have now registered my whole family including my kids with his practice - I only wish I had done this earlier . Thank you Dr Zemenides for all your help

Mr Richard Lovegrove

General Surgeon

Richard is an excellent and highly competent surgeon, working to the highest standards; from the initial consultation he listened and took on board my concerns as well as how I wished to progress moving forward. He clearly explained the various options, which was reassuring. Overall, a first-rate experience end to end. He is a leading expert in his field and would recommend Richard to any patient for consultation or treatment in this area.

Mr Florian Bast

ENT Surgeon

Mr Bast completely changed my life and I can’t thank him enough. I was brushed off by my GP many times but he took me seriously and offered me surgery to fix my nose. Having a blocked nose, a cold 24/7, dripping nose, inability to breath etc really did affect almost every aspect of my life. I’m now able to breath through my nose and leave the house without having to worry.

Dr. Sheeraz Janjua

Optometrist

Always very reassuring to have a thorough eye check and test. Everything is always explained with clarity. I feel confident if there were any concerns it would be shared in a sensitive way again with clarity. I enjoy the visits as I feel at ease and it is good to catch up as there are mutual interests in family members and care is shown.

Mr Ramesh Kumar Gurunathan

ENT Surgeon

Dr Ramesh is in my opinion a bery qualified as well as outgoing person. I highly recommend him if you are planning to do any procedure that is related wIth ENT, he does more than what a doctor should do in his role to make sure you are aware of every step that occurs alone the procedure as well as recovery phase.
