Dr Ricardo Madrigal

Consultant Allergist

My appointment with Dr Madrigal was a breath of fresh air! I've seen more than my fair share of specialists due to complex chronic illness, and I can confidently say that Dr Madrigal is one of the best doctors I have ever seen. I came to him with the hope that he may be able to unpack a suspected misdiagnosis that has weighed on me for 9 years, significantly impacting my quality of life both in the uncontrolled symptoms and management strategies. Safe to say, he exceeded my expectations. He patiently listened, asked clear and thoughtful questions, and exuded a warmth with genuine care and concern (a trait that is sadly not as common as you'd hope among doctors, at least in my experience). He explained the misdiagnosis clearly, what he thinks I may be experiencing instead, and how we can move forward to diagnose / treat it. I didn't feel rushed at all, and it was abundantly clear he wanted to do his best to help me. That care extended to his clinic letter too. Dr Madrigal's letter was easily the best clinic letter I've had from any consultant. Even for bits I found myself struggling to articulate in the appointment, he somehow managed to make sense of it and report it accurately - proving just how deeply he listened to me. His admin team are also amazing, even checking in to make sure I knew what to do next. I truly left that appointment more hopeful than I've felt in YEARS: like I finally may be on the right path to get my life back. All because a highly knowledgeable and kind consultant took the time to compassionately listen. Overall, I would highly recommend Dr Madrigal to everyone I can, and I feel blessed that I was able to see him.

Newmedica Bury St Edmunds

Ophthalmology

The whole Newmedica process is very impressive. If you find visits to your local hospital depressing, with a thousand corridors and lost souls wandering aimlessly; with long wait times, crumbling buildings and crowded car parks, then you are in for a very pleasant surprise. The staff are incredibly friendly and the procedure is streamlined and well thought through. And the premises are in excellent order with impressive hygiene standards. Everything is immaculately clean. Operationally, whether attending as a private patient or on the NHS, you will receive excellent care. Having never experienced a private/public enterprise before, I have to say I’m impressed. My recommendation? If advised by your doctor or optician that you need eye surgery, then ask to be referred to Newmedica. I realise this revue reads like a publicity handout, but they are GOOD. I had cataract operations on both eyes, which went extremely well. Meanwhile - for a close relative and for different reasons - I have to visit our local hospital on a fairly regular basis. The endless waits, the shuffling of humanity lost in endless corridors, the general poor maintenance of hospital infrastructure… it’s never an uplifting experience. It’s true that you will find good and dedicated staff wherever you go, but some have to perform in adversity, while others don’t. Newmedica is a world apart. Take your pick.

Mr Raj Nigam

Urologist

Through the NHS at Leicester General hospital I was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer (Gleason 4+3) in June 2023, and I was advised that I should consider radical treatment of radiotherapy and hormone therapy or indeed a radical Prostatectomy. Following this I researched the results of these procedures and learnt of a few side effects and patient experience stories that were rather unsettling. Besides this it seemed that there could be quite a wait before treatment would actually start. So, i carried out further research on possible alternatives which is when I read about Mr Nigam and the NanoKnife procedure. I subsequently contacted Mr Nigam, had a consultation and elected to go forward with the procedure on 18th August 2023. This was carried out efficiently and effectively - I walked in just before lunchtime, and walked out around 6.00pm the same day. I then travelled to the station and caught the train home. I only had a few days of slight discomfort but then quickly recovered to the extent that I was able to travel to Scotland for a few days Salmon fishing a fortnight later (and I even caught fish).

I can’t recommend Sarah enough! I came to her after a lateral hip tear, and she was incredibly thorough from day one. She didn’t just focus on the injury itself but also identified underlying weaknesses that might have been contributing to my pain. Sarah always explained what she was testing and why, which really helped me understand my recovery. The rehab plan she set up through the app was super clear and easy to follow, and she regularly checked in by email to make sure I was progressing well. As a World Champ Age Group triathlete for 5+ years, I’ve seen a lot of physios across London — and Sarah is honestly one of the best I’ve come across. She’s not only knowledgeable and professional but also genuinely warm and caring. This helps me trust the process and believe in the recommendations she provides. Thanks to her, I’ve built my strength back and am back running completely pain free! And I am also aware of weaknesses that could contribute to future injuries.

Following an informative appointment with Dr.Georgina Williams I opted to have an upper Blepharoplasty. The procedure went surprisingly quickly, I was comfortable throughout. My recovery was uneventful with excellent after care and after a day or two I was able to resume my normal daily activities. I’m delighted with the result, my face is transformed, I look brighter and refreshed, my confidence is boosted. Dr.William’s expertise and experience is very reassuring and I always felt at ease. The staff are warm and welcoming and the surroundings are stunning. I highly recommend Montrose London.

My experience at the breast clinic was absolutely excellent from start to finish. The entire team was professional, compassionate, and incredibly reassuring. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and cared for — every member of staff took the time to make me feel comfortable and well-informed throughout the process. The clinic was spotless and beautifully organized, and the atmosphere was calm and supportive. Miss Lobo and her nurse, Sara, explained each step clearly, answered all my questions with patience, and treated me with genuine kindness and respect.

Willow Health

I had a fantastic perimenopause consultation with Dr. Colquhoun. She was the perfect combination of personable and professional — knowledgeable, kind, and easy to talk to. She created such a comfortable environment that even when my brain-fogged mind accidentally replaced “placebo” with “libido effect,” she didn’t miss a beat! I left the appointment feeling informed, reassured, and genuinely cared for. I can’t recommend Dr. Colquhoun highly enough.

Mr James Duncan

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Nuffield Health North Staffordshire Hospital

General Practice (GP), Imaging (Scans), + 4 more

Above and beyond! I was not the most agile person on crutches, my partner dropped me at the door whilst he went to park. Getting me checked in and wheelchair was no issue at all. The nurse in Out Patients who removed my stitches was ki d caring and professional, checking on me all the time (allowing me to take photos !). Took time to fit my walking boot to make sure it was comfortable.

Mr Stephen Brearley

General Surgeon

I recently saw Mr Stephen Brearly for an umbilical hernia consultation, and I was very impressed with his approach. He was honest and thorough, taking the time to carefully assess my situation and explain the best course of action, weighing both the pros and cons. I really appreciated how clearly he communicated everything, it made me feel informed, confident, and genuinely cared for.

Dorset Heart Clinic

Cardiology

From the initial phone call to the time we left the clinic the staff were friendly and helpful. The procedures were explained fully in a pleasant and easy to understand way which made it a relaxed experience not the life or death one we had been dreading. The report, which arrived within 4 days of the appointment, was concise and to the point and very easy to read and understand.

Mr Fadi Housami

Urologist

Seen quickly from appointment time. Was disappointed the previous hospital had not sent the request for a scan I was expecting but that was not Mr Housami's fault. He arranged an urgent scan appointment to come by text. Hoping it's not too long to wait. He fully explained my situations and went through my scans and treatment options. I felt very comfortable and he put me at ease

Mr Luca Sabatini

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I have been under Mr Sabatini's care for 10 years now. I have had numerous procedures and multiple rounds of IVF. My recent visit was for some investigational work and the fitting of a mirena coil. Mr Sabatini always provides 100% professionalism, care, and most of all compassion. He explains everything in details and always provided me with the best care.

Skin Horizon

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Dermatology

I recently had an endolift and polynucleotides injections with Skin Horizon and the wonderful Dr Ghazavi who I have known and worked with for over 5 years. He is a pure professional so knowledgeable kind caring and amazing at what he does. Would never see anyone else. Highly recommend the clinic and Dr Ghazavi your be in great hands with this clinic

Dr. Joao Martins

Cardiologist

Although during the operation he was behind a plastic sheet , he was responding to questions and kept me reassured during a complex procedure. He obviously had the support of his team and his follow up in the recovery area was delivered with facts and information to help me going forward. Of course stylish scrubs never go amis!

Mr Minhal Chatoo

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Mr Chatoo took time to listen and to get the best history possible. He was very clear in terms of how he was going to use the X-rays/MRI to determine the best treatment plan. Following these diagnostics he spent time to explain what these showed and what this meant for my ongoing management. Which in the event was non-surgical.
