Mr Vik Kapoor

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I contacted Mr Kapoor following a recommendation from a family friend at a point where my condition had become severe. I was unable to walk and was spending much of the day crawling due to pain. Mr Kapoor saw me promptly, and after discussion we agreed that a microdiscectomy was the best course of action. From my initial consultation to surgery was just six days, which was remarkable and hugely reassuring. The relief I felt when I woke up from surgery was instant. The sciatic pain had completely disappeared, and for the first time in a long while I was able to move freely. I genuinely feel that Mr Kapoor gave me my life back and put me firmly on the road to recovery. I would also like to mention Naomi, his secretary, who was consistently helpful and supportive throughout the entire process. Nothing was ever too much trouble for her, even when she was unwell herself. I would strongly recommend Mr Kapoor and the team at Spire Macclesfield to anyone needing spinal surgery.

Hospital was dirty. Room was dirty. Was provided with a pillow that was fully stained yellow on one side with no pillow cover. One of the nurses saw it when he turned it over but I had already been lying on it for hours. Went to the surgery without any pillow only to wake up to another stained pillow without any cover. Found a toenail on the bed. Very unhygienic and was not comfortable. Staff were ok. Food received was not what I ordered, so left without eating anything. Will only be coming back for my second operation because it is the surgeons only practice that is close to where I live, otherwise would not be returning. Hygiene is most important in these environments and it was not to par at all. Worse than NHS.

Dr Manish Kalla

Cardiologist

Dr Kalla spent time clearly explaining what my problem was, what further tests were required and how these would be carried out. He went on to clearly and thoroughly explain what the treatment would entail and how this would be done. He checked my understanding at every stage and he created a safe space for me to ask any questions I had and to discuss any fears or concerns about the treatment or its outcomes. I left my consultation absolutely clear on what was in front of me. At all stages Dr Kalla was warm, engaging and very considerate. His path of investigation led to my ultimately receiving a new aortic valve which has saved my life. I recommend him most highly.

Dr Mohamed Alama

Cardiologist

I had an excellent experience during my last follow-up visit with my cardiologist Dr Mohamed Alama. The consultation was thorough, professional, and reassuring. Everything was explained clearly and patiently, and I truly felt listened to and taken seriously. The doctor took the time to review my results in detail, answer all my questions, and provide clear guidance on next steps. The visit left me feeling confident, well-informed, and in very good hands. I greatly appreciate the care, expertise, and genuine attention shown during this appointment.

Dr. Mohamed Aly

I had an excellent experience with Dr Mohamed Aly. His expertise and depth of knowledge as a consultant upper gastrointestinal surgeon were clear throughout the consultation. He listened carefully, answered all of my questions thoroughly, and explained my condition and options in a clear and reassuring way. I felt fully involved in decisions about the next steps in my care. His professional, calm, and patient focused approach inspired real confidence. I would highly recommend Dr Aly to anyone seeking outstanding specialist care.

Professor Bhik Kotecha

ENT Surgeon

Dr Kotecha is an incredibly knowledgeable and talented gentleman. I came to him with the hopes of improving my nasal airflow and not only has he guided me through various different treatments until we achieved the desired outcome, he has also given me much additional advice relating to snoring. I can say without hesitation that Dr Kotecha goes above and beyond in his professionalism.

The site was easy to access, clean and comfortable. Was greeted on time by Paul who was friendly, welcoming and reassuring. He seemed extremely knowledgeable and experienced and was curious as well as informative. He's provided me with next steps and I've left feeling more optimistic about my future physical health because of my appointment with him.

Equilibria Health

Prior to commencing this course of CBT, I felt somewhat apprehensive, as I had not previously undertaken anything of this nature. However, after just the second appointment, I began to gain confidence. The advice and support provided encouraged me to fully engage with the process, and I noticed a significant improvement from start to finish.

The staff were warm and welcoming, the waiting area was clean and bright; my only problem was the beautiful low level sofas, my hip prevented me sitting on them. This seemed to be a problem for all hip patients, we all sat in the refectory area on high level chairs! That seems to be the only downside to my entire visit.

Professor William Ayliffe

Ophthalmologist

Professor W Ayliffe was the only ophthalmologist who correctly diagnosed my eye condition on the first visit after years of seeing others. Follow-up blood tests confirmed it. He explains everything clearly, step by step, and answered all my questions. Highly recommended.

Mr Richard Scawn

Ophthalmologist

The perfect surgeon. And just a wonderful human being. The best at what he does. Listens extremely well. Is absolutely fair & reasonable. And takes proper care of his customers. If you’re looking for an eye surgeon Dr. Scawn absolutely has to be first on your list.

On 8 January 2026 I went for a follow-up after surgery by Mr Pringle in October 2024, fearing my vision had deteriorated over the past few months but Mr Pringle was able to demonstrate to me that my sight had actually improved slightly.
