Mr Fadi Housami

Urologist

I would like to raise a concern regarding my recent care for recurrent kidney stones. Firstly, I would like to highlight that Dr Fadi was excellent during my appointment. He explained the situation clearly and appeared genuinely committed to supporting his patients as much as possible. My complaint is not about his conduct, but about the overall approach to managing my condition. I am extremely concerned by the apparent lack of focus on prevention and follow-up for recurrent kidney stones. Several years ago, I passed a kidney stone and brought it to my urology appointment. I was told that no analysis would be done and that I could simply discard it. This was very disappointing, as analysing the stone could have identified the underlying cause and potentially helped prevent future episodes. Since then, I have continued to experience kidney stone episodes, yet there still appears to be no proactive plan to investigate why this keeps happening or how it can be prevented. Kidney stones are not a trivial issue; they can escalate rapidly and cause severe pain and complications. In this sense, they feel like a “time bomb”. I was also disappointed by the structure of my recent appointment. I requested time off work with the expectation that necessary tests or scans would be carried out on the same day. Instead, the appointment lasted less than ten minutes, and I am now required to wait again for a separate scan. This long and fragmented process adds unnecessary stress and delays diagnosis and management. I believe patients with recurrent kidney stones deserve a more preventative, joined-up approach, including stone analysis, timely investigations, and clear follow-up plans. I would appreciate clarification on why preventative measures are not routinely pursued and how my care can be improved going forward.

Review for Podiatrist Consultant Liam Stapleton I have been a patient of Liam Stapleton for several years, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Liam is consistently professional, attentive, and genuinely thorough. He always takes the time to listen carefully, explains everything clearly, and makes sure you fully understand both the problem and the treatment options. What really sets him apart is how deeply he thinks about each case rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach. He looks at issues from multiple angles, not just the painful area itself. He considers overall functionality, gait, posture, and the geometry of movement, and how all of these interact and impact the body. This holistic and biomechanical approach has made a huge difference to my outcomes over the years. You never feel rushed, dismissed, or treated like a number. Liam is thoughtful, analytical, and genuinely committed to finding the root cause of problems rather than just treating symptoms. If you are looking for a podiatrist who is highly knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and truly invested in long-term functional improvement, Liam Stapleton is exceptional.

Dr Dinkar Bakshi

Paediatrician, Consultant Allergist

After a year long struggle and running back and forth to the GP and hospitals and trying various alternative therapies I followed a good friends advice on visiting Dr Bakshi and it was the best decision and suggestion ever. He was so knowledgeable, sympathetic, understanding and more over he knew exactly what the problem was. He said my son would be fine in a few days and he lived up to his promise and my sons skin has recovered within days after a year long struggle. Not only does he help sort the problem he advises in the best way… he didn’t advise expensive options even sent a clinic letter same day for GP purposes and was mindful of the struggles. He is worth every penny and he’s not out to charge excessively he’s very generous and accommodating financially. I would really recommend others use him he had all the answers and also a contact number details of his office Rahul in particular was extremely effortless in helping even answering calls or messages out of hours. So glad to have stumbled across this clinic.

Mr Selva Theivacumar

Vascular Surgeon

Dr Selva Theivacumar was professional and helpful from the beginning when consulting me on my varicose veins. He gave an excellent recommendation on what was possible and necessary in a tailored treatment plan to achieve my desired outcome. The team and him always made sure I was comfortable and clear with each stage, along with being friendly, knowledgeable and vigilant in the lead upto the procedure which helped put my nerves at ease. In the after care I was well looked after and given instructions on how to look after myself at home along with any limitations. I am delighted with the results - many thanks to Dr Selva Theivacumar and the team at Hendon Hospital!

Mr Neil Johns

General Surgeon

I would highly recommend Mr Johns for anyone with breast concerns. He has a lovely manner and very clear communication, taking time to explain things to me and manage any questions and concerns that I had which gave me confidence that I was in good hands. I have had two operations conducted by him, both of which went well, and medical professionals who have subsequently examined me have proactively commented on how neat my scars are. I feel lucky that I was referred to his clinic and would highly recommend him to others.

All staff, including the receptionist, were very nice and helpful. The hospital waiting areas and the consulting room were very clean and well maintained. There were unlimited free hot drinks and water available for waiting patients. Whilst the hospital does not have a car park, there was plenty of on-street parking available (charges varying up to £6.50 for 4 hours - enforced until 8pm), even on a busy Friday traffic wise after 4pm, when I arrived.

Visited Mr Mettias for a ongoing issue with our 4 year son. He carried out a very good examination on the day, made plenty of notes. Listened very carefully and explained what the cuase may be. Explained very well what the route course could be and advised on treatment. Allowed us to think it through. What would be best for our son. And has left it very open and accessible to contact again. Very happy with the outcome of the initial consultation.

Professor John Timperley

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I have recently had my right hip replaced with Mr Timperley carrying out the procedure using the Spare technique. The service and Care I received from him has been second and none. I was very apprehensive about having any procedure done, but he reassured me and gave me all the facts.I couldn’t have asked for a better surgeon and one that I felt I could trust. I have no hesitation in recommending Mr. Timperley to anybody reading this review.

Clarity - Blackpool

Ophthalmology

I decided to have laser correction done privately after finding out the waiting time for NHS treatment was too long. My cataract operations and laser correction on one eye were done at Chec and I have nothing but praise on the way I was treated by all staff, clinical as well as administrative. Based on this I had full trust in using Clarity, knowing that I would be treated by the same caring consultants.
