Mr Farid Ud-Din

Orthopaedic Surgeon

At my initial meeting with Mr Ud-Din he examined my hip thoroughly, explained the cause of my pain (which I endured for many years) with detailed reference to my x-ray and immediately recommended a full hip joint replacement. Mr Ud-Din explained how my hip joint would be replaced and size of scar to expect. Mr Ud-Din inspired confidence throughout our meeting and this has endured pre and post operation. Before my operation I spoke to Mr Ud-Din to understand the type of femoral stem, head, liner and securing technique that was going to be used; this information ensured I had a good understanding of what was involved and helped calm my nerves. 2 hours post operation I was able to put my full body weight on my new hip using crutches for balance with no pain. 4 weeks post operation I stopped using crutches, started driving after 5 weeks, no longer need pain medication and now have better hip mobility than I have had for many years. In my opinion Mr Ud-Din is a fantastic surgeon who has returned my body to the healthy state it was in 5 years ago...and for that I will be eternally grateful.

Mr Veysi Veysi

Orthopaedic Surgeon

As a physicist, I interact with people who are very capable, and I could tell immediately from the way in which Mr Veysi was able to quickly diagnose my issue that he is very intelligent and perceptive. He is also a good and sensitive person who clearly cares about the well being of his patients and obtaining the best possible outcome for them. He is reassuring and calming, possesses a gentle humour, and provides precisely the correct advice when one is a bit uncertain about how quickly to make various movements following surgery. I experienced no pain following surgery and during recovery, and the hip on which Mr Veysi operated now functions as well as it did when I was in my prime, which is a testament to his surgical skill. Inspection of the post-operation X-rays and X-rays taken a year later confirms what excellent work he did.

CAS Medical

General Practice (GP), Primary Care

I had an outstanding experience with Dr Socklingham. From the very beginning, he was warm, caring, and genuinely attentive, taking the time to listen carefully without ever making me feel rushed. His communication was clear and reassuring, and I felt fully involved in every step of the decision-making process. What truly stood out was the rapid feedback and proactive approach to treatment planning — I received timely follow-up, clear explanations, and a well-thought-out plan that gave me real confidence. The consultation was delivered with professionalism, empathy, and efficiency, and I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone seeking high-quality, patient-centred care

Miss Sujata Gupta

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I’m so grateful to Dr Gupta and the teams at the Alexandra Hospital and the Christie. I had been really struggling with severe pain and difficult periods for some time and was eventually diagnosed with endometriosis. From the first consultation, Dr Gupta was calm, compassionate and professional in a way that helped alleviate a lot my worries. After my excision surgery, I am pain free and feel like I have been given my life back. It’s so important to have a specialised endometriosis surgeon for cases like mine and I would wholeheartedly recommend Dr Gupta and her team to anyone who is suffering from similar issues.

Dr Diab Haddad

Paediatrician

My daughter has been seeing Dr Haddad on and off for the past eleven years. He is extremely personable, professional and above all kind. She feels he always listens to her and takes her seriously, and as a parent it is such a relief to find a professional who takes what you say, as well as what your child says, completely seriously. He has a high level of care and refers to other specialists as and when needed. We couldn't recommend him highly enough. He noticed that my child had a rare medical condition which most healthcare professionals dismissed and has been helping us with it ever since.

Moorfields Private Eye Hospital

Ophthalmology

The staff seemed very friendly and efficient in what seemed to be quite a busy little private out patient's department. I had to have quite a few test's and checks but didn't have to wait long in-between different department's. When I got to see the consultant he was very professional and explained to me exactly what my condition was, how it was affecting my vision . He then explained how he proposed to try to correct the problem, the likely time scale for the procedure, and the cost. I also felt that he was very clear to manage my expectations when the procedure does go ahead.

Dr Antonis Pavlidis

Cardiologist

Dr Pavlidis saw me as I am in my late 50's and have high cholesterol levels and have done for many years, although my diet is good and I exercise regularly. He recommended that I started taking statins. I was sceptical of this at first, however, Dr Pavlidis made a logical and compelling case for doing so, which made absolute common sense. I have been on statins now for around 4 months, have had no adverse side effects, and my cholesterol levels have reduced significantly. It's one tiny pill a day but it could extend my life.

Mr Karthik Karuppaiah

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Mr Karuppaiah and his secretary, Hagar, were extremely helpful in getting my hand fixed up before my exams. As soon as I mentioned that I had exams, they did everything they could to expedite the process for me. I am immensely grateful for their help and kindness. Mr Karuppaiah was thorough in determining the cause of my pain and was gentle when administering the steroid injection. It is obvious that he is very experienced and an expert in his field! His team have consistently been supportive, responsive and happy to help.

I had an excellent experience at the hospital from start to finish. The facility was exceptionally clean and well maintained, which immediately made me feel comfortable and at ease. Every staff member I interacted with was friendly, professional, and genuinely caring, taking the time to explain things clearly and answer any questions I had. Their kindness and attentiveness made a stressful situation much easier, and I felt well looked after throughout my visit.

Mr John Terrace

General Surgeon

My visit was a consultation to decide on whether i needed a hernia operation. It was an absolutely first class experience . The conversation was not rushed, there was no sign of 'going through the motions' , i felt completely listened to and options were explained clearly and with a minimum of medical terminology , acronyms and buzzwords. I left with a feeling of total confidence in Mr John Terrace and the outcome of my forthcoming operation

Mr Alastair Henderson

Urologist

Clear explanation given which was suitable for age and knowledge level of recipients. Took a conservative approach to the problem which is always appreciated, but explained what to do if there was an escalation. Lovely man, not at all arrogant or snooty, which is so very refreshing when so many Doctors are. Very personable and clearly an expert in his field. He came highly recommended by past patients.

Active X Clinics Edinburgh, West End

Osteopathy, Physiotherapy, + 2 more

I was recommended Active X Clinic in Edinburgh for osteopathy by a friend who has been going there for many years, as I have lower back pain. Gavin talked me through everything and I felt listened to and comfortable. I felt immediate relief afterwards and plan to receive further treatment. I would definitely recommend them, very professional.

Elanic

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Dermatology, + 7 more

The biggest compliment to pay Elanic is the fact there was such minimal fuss from start to finish. After booking the initial consultation right through to having the procedure everything was crystal clear, easy to understand and done as described. I would highly recommend Elanic to anyone looking ito take advantage of private surgery.

I arrived a few minutes early and was greeted by a very pleasant receptionist who made me feel very welcome, I was pretty much instantly seen to by the doctor who listened to my issues, and very quickly arrived at a diagnosis that will hopefully greatly increase my quality of life, I couldn't be happier, thank you.

This hospital is very efficient with all their appointments and any queries raised they address quickly to resolve. The hospital is extremely clean.

Albion Dental : Brighton

Dentistry

Staff are friendly, its a good dentist but I'm kept waiting every time. This time for 20 minutes. While I understand emergencies happen, some warning would be helpful. Maybe time needs to be allowed for this when booking appointments as my time is as valuable as the service I'm paying for.
