Mr Kalyana Javangula

Cardiothoracic Surgeon

Following an angiogram that showed a need for heart by-pass surgery, I had a follow up appointment with Mr Javangula at the end of January 2024. At this appointment we talked about my heart history, and he comprehensively explained the need for by-pass surgery. At this stage there was a 3 to 4 month waiting list with the NHS, but because of the severity of my condition I opted for private treatment. I had quadruple heart by-pass surgery on the 14th February 2024 a (a great day to get your heart fixed). I cannot thank Mr Javangula enough for the amazing care I received. He came to see me personally every day following my surgery, including across the weekend. He was incredibly kind and reassuring, always taking the time to explain everything clearly at every stage. His professionalism and kindness made a huge difference at what was a very worrying and stressful time. I would also like to say thank you to the whole team at Nuffield Leeds Hospital. The care I received was outstanding from admission to my discharge. Every member of staff was attentive and compassionate. I would highly recommend Mr Javangula and the team at Nuffield. If you’re looking for a heart surgeon, he’s your man! Thank you so much.

Moorfields Private Eye Hospital

Ophthalmology

All was great until the end. My only complaint would be that after my surgery there was no one around to take me down to reception and get a taxi. Mt vision was impaired due to the surgery and drops. I was walking into pillars thinking they were people. I wandered around the ground floor for ages looking for reception. It seemed to be a night manager. He phoned for a taxi for me. I could hardly see. The taxi took me home but I had no idea where I was due to my vision. When I got out I stumbled on the pavement. I could hardly see. You should tell people it’s best to have someone with them. Or if not staff should have accompanied me to the taxi and advised of vision. I dropped my water bottle and wet the seat with the water bottle in the taxi. I legit it there as I couldn’t see This happened on my very first consultation years ago when I was not advised of vision impairment due to eye drops and travelled home by tube in fear It’s no good making a big fuss of someone before surgery then rushing them out and rushing their meal and medication instructions afterwards because staff want to go home.

Sonoworld Diagnostic Services

Imaging (Scans), Obstetrics & Gynaecology

I have visited Daniela at Sonoworld on many occasions since 2020 for various reasons / body areas to be scanned. Sometimes for routine checking and at other times, via doctor recommendation. Daniela is always very thorough, kind and her room is spotlessly clean. She has always made me feel at ease when explaining her findings. She clearly has many many years of experience and knowledge. She always goes above and beyond and has followed up with me via email and phone call, especially when she could tell that I was anxious. I have been to other Ultrasound clinics in Central London and I have always found that they are more expensive (for no better service) and more importantly, they always try to upsell more of their services, not something that I believe is appropriate when it comes to health. Daniela has seen myself and friends of mine at short notice, and I will always continue to recommend Daniela and Sonoworld to anyone who requires an ultrasound.

St Joseph’s Hospital

Physiotherapy, Audiology, + 22 more

I had a meniscal tear repair on 20th January. I am really disappointed and dismayed with the conflicting advice I was given regarding physiotherapy. An hour prior to surgery, Brad the physio told me I would be fully weight bearing after the operation. After the surgery a different physio told me I could not weight bear for three weeks and had me up and about practising walking on crutches. She also put a leg brace on my leg which was locked. I wasn't told to unlock it. Therefore for 2 weeks post surgery I wasn't weight bearing and movement in my knee was restricted totally. Today I had my stitches out and my first physio session. Physio told me I should have been 50% weight bearing straight away and that my leg brace should have been unlocked to allow some movement. So three conflicting pieces of advice. I am really unhappy.

We feel very honoured to have Dr Shebani as our Daughters Cardiologist, she has been with us on the full journey from fetal to present (16years) As a parent having a child with a heart condition it can be very daunting.

Making sure our daughter has the best care and we trust her whole heartedly . My girl would not be the girl she is today without her. As a family we cannot thank Dr Shebani enough and she is a credit to the NHS.

Miss Adriana Kovacova

Cosmetic Doctor, Ophthalmologist

I found the whole experience of surgery with Dr. Kovacova to be extremely reassuring. I was relatively nervous about the ptosis op, she gave clear and considered information on what I should expect and the related risks before the op but was careful to explain that it was a relatively routine procedure that put me at ease. During the op she talked to me throughout, making me feel calm and relaxed. During my follow up appointment she was very friendly and explained the best course of action for healing. All in all, Dr. Kovacova ensure an extremely positive experience of surgery.

Professor Sanjay Purkayastha

General Surgeon

Professor Purkayastha was highly professional throughout. He was approachable and friendly. He was able to explain clearly the reasons for all the preliminary tests and answered questions fully in terms that I could understand. He exuded confidence and professionalism and was very thorough in his preparations for surgery. He made himself available for questions and gave clear and comprehensive answers. My surgery went very well and I felt safe and cared for by the Professor and his team throughout the process.

Dr. Fiona Vij

Emergency Medicine Doctor, General Practitioner

I would definitely recommend Dr Vij. The consultation with her was pleasant yet thorough. It was clear that she had read my history and was (painlessly!) able to lead our discussion to fill in any blanks. She managed to elicit and clarify my aims and expectations for the consultation, and then set out to fulfil them in a professional and courteous manner. After the consultation, her analysis and response was, again, thorough, professional and easy to understand, with clear identification of possible next steps.

Mr Robert Turner

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Initially I was very unsure about my condition, however, Mr. Turner provided reassurance that the condition of my hand could be fixed. Tests were carried out over the following month then surgery was suggested. The operation proved to be very successful and, despite being prepared for subsequent pain, I did not experience either pain nor discomfort at any point. Further to the surgery, Mr. Turner and colleagues provided after-care which was reassuring, professional and continued to ensure a speedy recovery.

Ms Glenda Erwee

Psychotherapist

Glenda's ability to help me see, to look, and to work at things differently has changed my life significantly. I owe Glenda, a huge amount, whilst I know she would say, I needed to do the work, and this much is very true, I could not have done it without Glenda's support, encouragement and professionalism. I have more self confidence, more self awareness, and more self potential than I did before I started therapy and I'm incredibly proud of the work we've done. "Thank you Glenda" just isn't enough!!!

Dr Peysh Patel

Cardiologist

Great to see the Dr who did the job. As with all doctors I’ve seen they don’t read my notes in detail before speaking to me which I find a little bit frustrating. I’m on the ball though with my medical history & medications & actions that have been taken so I can talk about my treatments in an informed way. Any questions are ensure are answered clear in a manner that I can understand. All in all the doctor cared to a point but get the impression they are spread thinly across the NHS.

Vermilion - The Smile Experts Kelso

Dental Care, Dentistry

All staff at Vermilion are friendly yet very professional. I had an emergency referral after losing four front teeth in a sports accident. Every step of my treatment was explained simply yet in detail. This was especially important for me, a stroke survivor, who has difficulty understanding things. My entire treatment was gentle and painless. I was looked after exceptionally well by reception staff, dental nurses, dentists, hygienists. Would recommend Vermilion Kelso 100%. Thank you

HMT St Hugh's Hospital

Mr Nikhil Nanavati remained professional and efficient at all times. Always happy to discuss any concerns. I would definitely recommend his expertise to anyone who made need foot surgery. Thank you so much once again.

Joint Reaction

Orthopaedic Surgery

I was sadly given some very upsetting news that Mr Thomas would not be able to help my condition and that I would have paralysis for life. Mr Thomas delivered this news in the most respectful manner and took the time to answer all of my questions during the appointment and afterwards. He explained everything in great depth, and I truly appreciated the time and care he gave

Quality Dental : Horsham

Dentistry

This was a visit for a small filling. I was apprehensive as usual at the thought of a dentist appointment, but i was made to feel at ease by the friendly staff. The wait time was very short on this day and the whole treatment from start to finish was quick and pain free. The dentist Levi and his assistant were very relaxed, friendly and professional. Thank you

Lantern Clinic

Diagnostics & Testing, General Practice (GP), + 3 more

I have no negative points. Dr Kitova explained everything extremely clearly, both with regard to symptoms and treatment. The follow up notes were very helpful as was the list of supplements. I have felt supported during each of my appointments and have absolute confidence in Dr Kitova's approach.
