I booked and paid for a private online consultation with Dr Vinesan Naidoo regarding persistent hyperprolactinaemia confirmed on blood tests (monomeric prolactin approx. 590 mIU/L; total prolactin approx. 704 mIU/L) with ongoing symptoms including low libido, low energy, anxiety, poor sleep and mood issues. This appointment was extremely disappointing. From the start, I was interrupted repeatedly and not allowed to explain my symptoms properly. The doctor quickly dismissed the issue as “physiological” and “not a medical concern” despite clearly abnormal blood results and clear symptoms affecting my quality of life. What I found most frustrating is that he seemed to assume he knew better than I do about what I’m experiencing, essentially implying that raised prolactin at these levels cannot cause symptoms — even though it is well known that prolactin elevation can affect libido, mood, energy and sexual function in men. There was no structured assessment and no clear plan. The consultation did not cover: possible causes of raised prolactin repeat testing plan (fasting, stress-controlled, early morning) medication/supplement review endocrine referral pathway whether pituitary imaging should be considered if prolactin remains elevated As a patient paying privately, I expected a professional, thorough medical discussion. Instead, I felt dismissed and rushed, and left with no help, no reassurance, and no next steps. I cannot recommend this doctor based on my experience. I paid for a medical consultation, but what I received was an opinion with no investigation, no plan and no clinical value.

Wessex Cardiology

Cardiology

Recently wanted an MOT to check that my heart was all fine due to having a HA at a young age. I had an ECG and a Stress Echogram procedure prior to my consultation with Mr Wilkinson. I requested to see Mr Wilkinson, as it was him who performed emergency stent procedures on me 14 years ago, and it was really great to see him again after all these years. Mr Wilkinson is top of his field and a very lovely guy. The nurse who performed my tests was really professional and friendly and very helpful. My consultation went very well and put my mind at ease. I went private as I wanted some Piece of mind and the NHS only deal with reactive situations (IE heart attack) and are not interested in supporting people years after treatments unless you have a serious issue. I can 100% recommend anyone looking to book private consultation / tests via Spite hospital. I only have one major gripe… they no longer, and for some time do not take a credit card payment (no longer use a card machine) the reasons were explained, as you can only do a BACS transfer now. I find this very unhelpful and this should be reinstated. If you have lots of spare cash around to complicate then this will not be a problem for you, but for people who use this service and it’s an extra expense, it’s more difficult. I would use Spite more if a credit card service was available.

Newmedica Newcastle

Ophthalmology

I was greeted by an amicable, polite & efficient receptionist on arrival and shown to the waiting room where member of the theatre staff would come for me and explain what would happen next. Kate introduce herself and on knowing I have profound hearing loss made sure that I understood everything. She prepared me well with the required eye drops and made sure I understood the process that would happen in theatre. Having escorted me into theatre she introduced me to Mr Shafiq, the surgeon and the other theatre staff. Mr Shafiq is very approachable and explained clearly what was going to happen. During the procedure he talked me through what he as about to do and what I would see. He was very reassuring throughout the whole procedure which took about 10 mins. He explained clearly about the eye pad, the eye drops etc and Kate made sure that I had understood this before she escorted me to the waiting room. Overall, an excellent team and excellent care; even better than I'd expected because of my profound hearing loss.

Mr Andrew P Molloy

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I fell down a couple of stairs and after almost a year of pain, repeat sprains and a long wait list with NHS for further investigation I booked an appointment with Andrew and I was so glad that I did. He listened to my symptoms and booked an MRI the following day. The results confirmed Andrews initial thoughts from review a complete ligament tear on the outer ankle and partial tear on the inner ankle. It was a relief to finally understand what was causing such extreme pain in normal every day activities and I was booked in for ankle reconstruction surgery within a few weeks. I am now almost 6 months on and Andrew has given me my life back. To wake pain free and be able to walk without pain and swelling as well as now being able get back into exercise has been just fantastic. The whole process was explained with professionalism and care and I cannot thank Andrew and the physio enough. Highly recommend anyone who is struggling with pain to book an appointment with Andrew.

ABBI Clinic - Manchester

Psychiatry, Psychology, + 1 more

I was an online client. My first day and many following days, a laptop was placed somewhere (usually with a very minimal view of part of the room) whilst people in the room had a conversation (often it was staff as other patients had left the room/ spent a lot of time waiting for groups to start/ group leaders). Group timings etc weren't stuck to or structured and there seemed no consistency. The hardest part was having to have an 'assessment' i.e. go through my life background in detail (including trauma) a total of 5 times with different members of staff. I'm sorry to say (and likely it's different in person) but there didn't seem to be any genuine care whatsoever. It was a waste of time for me attending here sadly.

Dr Steven Hurel

Diabetes & Endocrinology Specialist

I have been a patient of Dr. Hurel for many years now (at least 8 years). He is wonderful and one of my favourite physicians. Dr. Hurel is extremely knowledgeable in the field of endocrinology. It is obvious to me that he keeps up with the latest research in his field as he will often speak about what the latest studies show. He is also kind, understanding, and very encouraging, and has a great demeanour. He takes his time with his patients and has always been available to me if I have any questions or run into any problems. He comes highly recommended.

Mr Lucas Attwood

Physiotherapist

I can’t recommend Lucas highly enough. He supported me through my recovery from a fractured ankle over several months, and his expertise, patience, and encouragement made a real difference. Each session was well-structured and tailored to my progress, and he always explained the purpose behind the exercises. Thanks to Lucas, I’ve regained strength, confidence, and mobility faster than I expected. An excellent physiotherapist and a genuinely supportive person.

Dr. Rahul Lakhera

General Practitioner, Sport & Exercise Medicine Doctor

Recommended by a friend, I found the service very helpful ;booking an appointment and explaining the procedure. Dr Lakhera explained how the consultation would be conducted for the diagnosis and treatment. He was very clear, showing me the ultra-sound scans and discussing what he had identified. Referral for an MRI scan was competed very quickly and returned to Wharfedale clinic for treatment, completed within eight days. Treatment has been successful .

Mr Aamir Zubairy

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I recently had a consultation with Mr. Aamir Zubairy regarding ongoing pain and stiffness in my big toes. From the moment I arrived, he was professional, approachable, and attentive, taking the time to listen to my concerns. He carefully reviewed my X-rays and examined my toes, explaining everything in a way that was easy to understand. I left the appointment feeling reassured, well informed, and confident about the next steps in my care.

Mr Nahor Garcia

Physiotherapist

visited Nahor on the recommendation of my Hyrox coach due to a wrist injury. From the very first moment, Nahor was very attentive and provided excellent care. We discussed different treatment options, and he recommended the plan that best suited my situation. 100% recommended. His connections with other specialists are excellent and truly top-level. Thanks to him, I’m now able to train again without any issues.

Dr Nikant Sabharwal

Cardiologist

I first met Dr Sabharwal a year ago to seek advice on a cardio matter. He was thorough in his research and assessment and explained the therapy plan to me. One year on, it was great to meet with him again and to discover that his plan had worked well. As he said himself, he has done himself out of a job as I (sadly) no longer need to meet with him. Happy to highly recommend Dr Sabharwal.

Mr Simon Sturdee

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I first met Mr Simon Sturdee on Friday morning at an early appointment and found him to be very pleasant and helpful and felt very confident that he will be able to do something to relieve me of the pain I have had for a long time ! I look forward to the next appointment when I know Mr Sturdee will be making every effort to help me get back to normality again !
