Mr Jamie Griffiths

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Mr Griffiths was extremely informative during the initial consultation and very responsive to my questions which made it easy for me to make the decision to go ahead with the hip replacement and the type to go for with minimum invasive surgery. He instilled confidence from the outset. The only aspect which caused me some degree of anxiety was not knowing what type of anaesthesia to choose for the procedure, until just before the operation ( the first in my medical history). JG had indeed advised that this would be the case but, during the months leading up to the op, I spoke with a number of friends/relations who relayed a range of experiences and a number giving their advice. A few had had GA and more went the local epidural route, although one of the latter had experienced far too much consciousness in terms of what was going on. I had read up about both and the various pros and cons ( info provided very helpful in this regard) and came along on the day with an open mind to confer with the anaesthetist, complete with my music and earphones if needed. In fact, after speaking with him it was easy to choose to go the local anaesthesia route and he put my mind at rest that he could sedate me so that I would not be aware of the procedure. I never finished listening to the first track of my music playlist ( I made sure I didn't have it on shuffle - my younger brother did for his hip replacement only to randomly get the track "the first cut is the deepest" to listen to at the start!!) I came round in recovery and all was complete. In some ways I would have liked to have had an early discussion with the anaesthetist so that I had made my decision ahead of the procedure rather than pondering it for so long. However that is a small negative compared to the outcome of the hip replacement with which I am extremely pleased. I had no leg swelling to speak of, very manageable pain, off crutches in 10 days and yesterday after 6 weeks walked some 11km mostly cross country. ( Walking distance had been the major problem instigating my hip replacement as that/hiking is an important part of my life). This has far exceeded my expectations and I am looking forwards to getting back on the tennis doubles court after a further 6 weeks of exercising and physio. If and when the other hip needs doing, I would have no hesitation in returning to Mr Griffiths again. Many thanks to him and the team.

Miss Sharmina Khan

Ophthalmologist

Being aware that my eyesight was deteriorating I decided that the wait for NHS cataract surgery was going to take several months, and particularly at my advanced age ,that being able to see more clearly was very important for me, so decided to contact Moorfields where I was introduced to Sharmina Khan. When first visiting Miss Khan she explained the type of lens that could be used . I decided on the better lens, which it was hoped possibly allow me to see sufficiently without any glasses.at all. As both of my eyes were to be treated it was decided that this would take place with an interval of two weeks between the two procedures. I was impressed by the service given by the reception staff and indeed on the days of surgery, the room provided, for the pre op tests and recovery afterwards- the staff were positive and very polite. I found that Miss Khan performed the two operations with calmness enabling me ,to feel relaxed ,and confident , during the two procedures which was really appreciated. particularly when one is having surgery under a local anaesthetic., being mainly aware as to what is being performed , I am very grateful and impressed by Miss Khan's surgery and so grateful to be able to see more clearly again, particularly noticing richer colours and clear 3D vision once more, and indeed the efficiency of the whole procedure, which has given me back one of my most vital senses My thanks to all concerned Jeremy K

Miss Jane Kerby

Plastic Surgeon

I underwent abdominoplasty surgery 6 weeks ago. In my initial consultation, Jane was clear, personable and knowledgeable. I felt at ease in our discussion; we had in depth discussions about the procedure and I did not feel rushed to ask all the questions I had. Booking the surgery was easy and a second consultation was provided to discuss in more detail my preferences. The day of the surgery everything ran smoothly. Jane checked in daily the first few days and was always quick to respond to any questions. She checked in regularly to make sure everything was healing well. My recovery process was very good; minimal pain and well managed. My results are amazing and I have healed without any issues. My scar is so thin and has already began to fade at only 6 weeks following Jane’s advice. I would highly recommend Jane to anyone wishing to get abdominoplasty surgery.

Both myself and my daughter have been patients of Dr Bakshi for over a year and he has helped us hugely. Recently my 18 month old was suffering from back to back viruses and worsening rashes. I contacted Dr Bakshi in desperation just before Christmas as the treatment advice from the GP was not working, and it was looking like we would be unable to travel and see family while she was so unwell. Dr Bakshi identified 2 types of skin infection and was able to advise the correct regimen of creams to use, and we were able to see our family at Christmas. Thank you so much for your kindness and empathy, and for always going above and beyond. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr Bakshi for both adults and children; he is one of the kindest and most helpful and knowledgeable consultants I have come across, and his secretary Rahul is also lovely and very responsive and helpful.

Mrs Ami Shukla

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

Ami Shukla is the first gynaecologist who listened to me and understood my concerns and worries. I left feeling reassured that my issues will now be looked at properly. Before seeing Ms Shukla I was feeling really lost I found GP's don't really understand womens health. I was previously put on antidepressants and was told that I was feeling a certain type of way because this was all in my head and this was put down to mental health when in realitiy my HRT needed looking at. The HRT was not quite right which is why I booked into see Ami Shukla who has now put my mind at ease and is helping me with my women issues. I highly recommend Ms Shukla to everyone.

Mrs Polly Ford

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

Polly was amazing throughout my entire journey, my original plan with ivf didn't work out but Polly was very helpful with helping me form a new plan with moving forward with my journey. She explained all of my options and what this would mean for me and my donor child. Polly also carried out my egg collection and also my embryo transfer that was successful the second time around. I constantly felt in the loop with my results and Polly always had a back up plan which i really needed when i sometimes felt like giving up, If it wasn't for Polly explaining all of my options i wouldn't have the baby i do now! I cant thank her enough.

When I first started looking for an endometriosis specialist and came across Mr Raza and all the positive reviews, I wondered: ‘can he really be that great?!’. The answer: yes he was. I had stage 4 DIE and a frozen pelvis. Mr Raza not only had the technical skill and expertise to deal with a complex case (with minimally invasive and cutting edge surgery) but also showed so much care and compassion, which gave me so much confidence and reassurance going into my surgery. The whole experience, including the recovery, has been so so positive and I would fully recommend him.

Mr Edward Lee

Ophthalmologist

I received excellent care from my Consultant Eye Surgeon, Mr Edward Lee. From my initial consultation for a cataract removal and subsequent surgery and follow up, I was treated with professionalism, kindness and reassurance. Everything was explained clearly which gave me confidence to have the procedure. Thanks to his care, my vision has improved significantly, and I am extremely grateful and I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Lee to anyone seeking expert and compassionate eye care.

Simply Meds Online Pharmacy

Medical Weight Loss, Pharmacy

On my order I specifically asked for CAPSULES of paracetamol not Tablets. The turn around was quick but I realized when receiving 3 boxes of tablets no care had been taken to check the medecine. When I asked for a return label they asked for photos and description of the packaging of which I cant do . I'm over 90 and not familiar with taking photos and being a simple mistake in product I didn't understand. I will never use these people again and wil never recommend them. My order #

Miss Stella Ivaz

Urologist

I have been seeing Miss Stella Ivaz the past couple of months. She is uber professional and a true expert in her field of Urology! She is very thorough and such a clear communicator at all times, during what can be quite personal issues. In addition, what also stands out for me personally, is that Miss Ivaz has an excellent bed side manner, good humoured and very empathetic, qualities which can be hard to find these days. I highly recommend Miss Ivaz without question.

Overall, it was a really positive experience and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend The Park Hospital.

᠎ Karen Laler

Dietitians

Karen has been an amazing pediatric dietician for our son, Henry. We didn’t know how to navigate the difficult allergies pathway at the beginning. Karen was extremely helpful and precise with her guidance, always taking the time to explain things clearly. Her advice felt tailored to Henry’s needs and made a real difference for us as parents. Karen has always been very empathetic and we felt very well supported anytime we had questions. Can’t thank Karen enough

Endocare Diagnostics

Gastroenterology

I had to give out personal information in a waiting room with other people. Also I was sat in the waiting room about half an hour having been nil by mouth, there were people eating and drinking. There should be a separate waiting area for patients. It was 2 hrs before I was seen, which is too long when you've been told to be nil by mouth. I had to explain I was autistic to the doctor, who was fine once he understood.

Spire Murrayfield Hospital Edinburgh

Communication about where the treatment was to take place could have been a bit clearer - appointment was arranged via Shawfair Park reception but treatment was actually at Murrayfield which wasn't clear to me. Murrayfield reception also called and seemed surprised too that it has been done by Shawfair but didn't clarify where it was happening. All worked out in the end though.

The hospital was very clean, very friendly and very welcoming. I was shown to my room, given a menu for dinner that night as I was staying over. The staff were all very polite and attentive, even going above and beyond to get me a chocolate milkshake when the kitchen had shut. Very nice people and a very good stay after my first time going under anaesthetic
