Dr Maria Kalkani

Dentist

I cannot thank Dr. Maria Kalkani, and her entire team enough for the extraordinary care they gave our child during what was one of the most stressful days we’ve had as parents. After our son suffered a fall and traumatically lost his front tooth, my husband and I were overwhelmed with worry. We weren’t just concerned about the immediate injury, but about the possible long-term effects on his adult teeth, his smile, and even his confidence and mental wellbeing. Seeing your child hurt and frightened is heartbreaking, and we walked into the clinic feeling anxious and unsure of what the future might look like. From the moment we arrived, everything changed. Dr. Kalkani’s professionalism, calm expertise, and genuine compassion were immediately reassuring. She took the time to explain every step clearly, answered our many (many!) questions with patience, and never once made us feel rushed or silly for asking. Her knowledge and confidence gave us complete trust that our child was in the very best hands. Her treatment coordinator, Jasmine, was equally incredible organized, kind, and so thoughtful in helping us navigate appointments and options during an emotional time. And Sydney, her nurse, was simply wonderful with our son —gentle, warm, and so reassuring. She treated him like he was family, which meant more to us than we can say. What stood out most was the level of care and humanity. They stayed late to make sure he was fully seen and that we understood every option available. No one hurried us out the door. Instead, they focused entirely on what was best for our child. They kept both my husband and me calm, grounded, and hopeful when we really needed it. The whole team showed such patience, kindness, and compassion not just clinical excellence, but true heart. It felt as though they cared for our son as if he were their own. We left feeling relieved, supported, and incredibly grateful. If you are looking for pediatric dental care where skill meets genuine love and dedication, I honestly cannot recommend Dr. Kalkani and her team more highly. The care they provide is immense and truly unmatched. Thank you for everything you did for our family. We will never forget it.

Dr Asif Qasim

Cardiologist

Approximately one year ago I experienced a sudden increase/spike in my heart rate when exercising on the rowing machine. My usual heart rate for a steady state training session was between 130 and 145 BPM. This time it suddenly spiked up to about 180 to 190+ bpm, and it would not come down quickly enough. I am quite fit for my age and never had such issues before. As this had never happened before, I did get in touch with my GP and eventually I had a 24hr Holter monitor fitted. The results did not reveal anything that was out of ordinary. But, a month later, I was at an indoor rowing competition, when my heart rate suddenly jumped to 226 bpm and I also experienced headaches. I then decided to use my wife's BUPA family health insurance and I had my 1st appointment with Dr Qasim in July 2025, at Cromwell Hospital. What struck me was his friendly and professional manner. He asked numerous questions about my lifestyle, my past or existing health issues, if any, and the sport I am involved in, rowing. He listened very carefully, patiently and sympathetically to all my concerns I had regarding my symptoms. He was also very reassuring, and I left the appointment feeling a lot more optimistic. Dr Qasim booked several thorough tests and, following the test results, I am now on medication that controls the atrial fibrillation symptoms. I have regained confidence in training harder, and I am now able to race without worrying. I also have regained the confidence that I am not going to have a sudden heart attack or a stroke! As it happens, very soon, I have an appointment with Dr Qasim, to review the last few months since I last saw him and the efficiency of the medication prescribed and obtain a final diagnosis. I am confident that I will able able to control the Afib symptoms and any possible complications, with Dr Qasim’s help and expertise.

Freedom Vision - Chelmsford

Ophthalmology

I recently had bilateral cataract surgery. From start to finish the treatment I received was excellent. The patient liaison manager was really helpful, friendly, incredibly supportive and a welcome calming influence. I was amazed by the state of the art optical equipment that was available to ensure that my lenses were perfectly suited to the dimensions of my eyes and my prescription, as well as the care that the technicians took while taking the measurements. The optometrists I saw were caring and informative, ensuring that I knew about the different types of intra ocular lenses available and what I may expect from them. They carried out my eye tests with care and patience. The eye surgeon was incredibly experienced and very skilled, and carried out the procedure very efficiently with great care. Now, six weeks post-surgery, I am very grateful of the care I received and the quality and clarity of my lenses; both aspects easily surpassed all my expectations. I would highly recommend Freedom Vision, Chelmsford to anyone considering cataract surgery.

Mr Daniel Urriza Rodriguez

Vascular Surgeon

Mr Rodriguez is very personable and explains everything clearly in non medical terms to you as the patient, ensuring that you are clear on what is causing your symptoms and the corresponding appropriate treatment path. You feel relaxed to ask any questions or for clarifications, and he encourages you to give your feedback to him in terms of being clear on the technical information he is providing, and without embarrassment, if you struggle with the medical complexities and need him to explain these again. I was very impressed by Mr Rodriguez both as an expert in his field and also in the kind way he interacts with you during your consultation. He was kind in personally taking me to show me where the MRI suite was in the Manor Hospital in order to book my MRI. You will be in safe and caring hands.

Mr Wenzhuang Chin

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

After our first meeting back in September 2024 I knew I could fully trust Mr.Chin with being thorough with my issues and making sure all areas were covered before taking any actions. On the day of my investigation surgery Mr.Chin went through everything he had planned to do during the surgery and what he intended to do if coming across any issues when investigating. We spoke a little previously about personal issues and one thing I’d like to consider in the future and he made sure the right course of actions were to be discussed and to be taken in the right time frame. I really am very thankful to have had the care and experience from Mr.Chin during the issues we are trying to get resolved

Better - Soho

Acupuncture, Physiotherapy, + 2 more

I have chronic pain (left elbow, right wrist, and lower back) due to sports injuries and less-than-ideal posture from long working hours in finance. I first met Simon at the Canary Wharf clinic in 2018, and he has since become my go-to physio. Not only does he provide effective pain relief, he also helps me understand the root causes so I can manage the pain myself. I highly recommend him to anyone who works long hours and also trains hard at the gym. Went to see him first week of Jan 2026 becasue my wrist was a bit flared up last month, and he's as good as usual!

Mr Vikesh Patel

Ophthalmologist

Mr. Patel carried out my upper Blepharoplasty. I couldn’t happier with both the experience and results. From the very first consultation he was completely honest, professional and incredibly calming, which put me at ease. He took time to explain everything clearly, answered all my questions and made sure I felt fully informed and confident at every stage. His manner is kind and reassuring and his skill and attention to detail are evident in the outcome. I am very grateful for his care and expertise and would recommend him to anyone considering this procedure.

Spencer Private Hospital Margate

Audiology, Cardiology, + 12 more

It was a little overwhelming as I was expecting to discuss fitting a coil and whilst that was mentioned, I was advised about having surgery which was unexpected. I found myself agreeing to the surgery despite not knowing much about it. The risks were not explained and I didnt find out how the procedure would be executed or potential recovery time that might be required. I feel a bit confused about whether this is the right course of action or not. I was not pleased to receive a letter that claimed the risks were explained to me, when they were not.

Mr Dylan Griffiths

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I recently received treatment under the care of Mr Dylan Griffiths, and I couldn’t be more impressed. He took time to listen &, explain my condition clearly, and discuss treatment available. He arranged my procedure in the imaging department. The consultant radiologist Dr George was also excellent, he explained everything clearly & I felt supported and well-informed throughout. Thanks to both for their skill and guidance, I’ve made a fantastic recovery and feel genuinely grateful for the quality of care. I would highly reccomend .

ABBI Clinic - Preston

Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, Psychiatry, + 2 more

Different time slots and sessions or more flexibility. Clearer communication between services and funders. Digital timetable, links and resources could benefit from being clearer/more easy to find. Mixed bag of staff, although the weaker ones did go quite quickly it still felt as though I was a bit of a guinea pig and didn't get as much from those sessions. Core team very caring, compassionate and supportive. Environment is an downside, a shared office building is not the best setting.

One Hatfield Hospital

Audiology, Cardiology, + 21 more

Lovely helpful doctor, didn't feel rushed, was listened too. Only reason no 5 star was hard to get through to reception and the inconvenience of being sent a letter for telephone appointment instead of agreed face to face appointment and not being able to get through to reception until the 11th hour to confirm and endure we had the correct appointment. Hospital was clean and looked well kept and staff were very friendly and attentive.

Professor Madhavan Rajan

Ophthalmologist

My overall experience has been amazing. The whole process has been very smooth and straightforward and I couldn’t be more grateful to Mr Rajan for his professionalism and kindness throughout this process. I have had been treated with great care and have had lots of reassurance after my operation that I am healing correctly and that it all went well.

The dermatologist was unavoidably delayed and this meant a late start to my treatment which was to follow his consultation. However the staff in the day unit were very attentive and the nurse looking after me was excellent.
