Fitzrovia Suite

Obstetrics & Gynaecology

We opted for private care at UCLH because we wanted the birth experience to be as positive as possible. As a medically uncomplicated patient I felt that I may not receive much attention or time on an overstretched NHS ward. I also had some anxieties around birth (as a healthcare professional myself) and felt reassured to be receiving consultant-led care, from a clinician with whom I was able to build a trusting relationship. Shalini provided exceptional care from 32 weeks pregnancy and after delivery. She got to know me and my partner, and understood our priorities and concerns. I had previously found it hard to make decisions around birth. Shalini provided us with evidence, data and her experience - this empowered us to make our decisions. She spent a lot of time with us and brought great care, empathy and kindness to her practice, as well as her excellent clinical skills. When we had questions, fears or anxieties Shalini was able to reassure us, both with her kindness and her experience and expertise. The care she provides is holistic and individualised - she advocated for me in many ways and empowered me to advocate for myself too. We had an elective caesarean at 39 weeks. The surgery was pain free and crucially for me, I felt confident and safe - something that was not natural for me in approaching birth. Shalini was close at hand to care for us before and afterwards. I made an excellent recovery and have healed extremely well. I recommend Dr Shalni in the strongest terms to mothers and families looking for private care at UCLH. Shalini is passionate about obstetrics, her patients and practising medicine. It is a great privilege to be cared for by a clinician at the top of her field, who clearly cares deeply about her patients.

Dear Team, I would like to provide feedback, as my experience at Harley Street Specialist Hospital has genuinely changed my life. I want to say how incredibly grateful and eternally indebted I am to my surgeon, Mr Luke Cascarini. He has given me a completely new lease of life. He is not only an outstanding surgeon but an exceptional human being, and I cannot thank him enough for the care, precision, and compassion he showed throughout my entire journey. I would also like to express my heartfelt thanks to Janet, Dr Bosh, and all the nursing staff, as well as every member of the team right down to the wonderful ladies on reception, including Marianne. There are too many to name individually, but every single person played a role in making this experience extraordinary. The hospital itself does not feel like a hospital at all — it feels more like a health retreat where you leave as a better version of yourself. The environment, the warmth, and the standard of care are truly exceptional. For anyone suffering from sleep apnea, as I was, or dealing with any of the conditions treated by your specialists, I could not recommend HSSH and Mr Luke Cascarini more highly. You have all transformed my life in ways I cannot properly put into words. Thank you, sincerely, for everything. Warm regards, Mr Shefik

John Flynn Opticians

Optometry

I recently visited John Flynn Opticians for my 2-yearly eye exam. Dr Janjua is always incredibly thorough in the eye exam, explaining each step and answering all my questions with patience. He takes the time to discuss my prescription in detail and also the variety of lens options available such as anti-fatigue, blue light reduction and anti-glare. I work in the computing industry and having the right eyewear makes the difference between a good day and one where you’re severely tired at the end of it. Dr Janjua’s expertise and attention to detail makes sure you’re confident it will be a good day. Dr Janjua is also supported by an amazing team. Everybody is welcoming and professional, making the entire process seamless and comfortable. I only needed new lenses this time which will be fixed to my existing frames, but when new frames have been required they’ve helped me choose the perfect frames that not only suit my style, but also feel comfortable. What really stands out is the personalised care and attention I received. Dr Janjua and the team genuinely care about your eye health and it shows. I highly recommend Dr Janjua and the team to anyone in need of eye care.

Professor Bijendra Patel

General Surgeon

I am writing to provide a full heartfelt reference to Professor Patel, who was responsible for my care at Wellington Hospital. His professionalism , compassion, and clinical excellence made an extraordinary impact on both my recovery and my confidence during a very difficult time.. From my first interaction with him , Professor Patel demonstrated exceptional skill and a deeply caring approach . He communicated clearly, listened attentively, and always made me feel respected and supported. His calm manner and willingness to explain each stage of my treatment gave me reassurance when I needed it most . I firmly believe that Professor Patel’s expertise and commitment to my wellbeing went far beyond what I ever expected. I will always remain grateful for the outstanding care I received under his supervision. Professor Patel is an exceptional clinician and an extraordinary human being . I offer him my highest recommendation without reservation. Kind regards , Jerry P.

Mr Jan Herzog

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Two consultations with Mr Herzog were very satisfactory. He was clear about wanting to make his own mind up about my problems rather than relying at all on previous views from others. I found that very reassuring. After an MRI scan he was able to talk me through in detail about all the issues, pros and cons etc. and outline options for the future. He made clear what would probably happen without intervention - something no one else had done previously. That made it so much easier for me to go ahead with an operation. The surgery went forward very quickly and successfully. I saw Mr Herzog before the operation and twice afterwards. His concern for my wellbeing was very obvious. His manner was delightful, which helped me to have full confidence in him. I am delighted to have chosen him as my Consultant and would recommend him unreservedly to others.

Mrs Sandra Cohen

Nutritionist

I had the pleasure of attending several sessions with Mrs. Sandra. The first focused on an assessment of my overall health, followed by clear and practical recommendations for improvement. She prepared a detailed report that included a personalized list of supplements with precise dosages, which I found extremely helpful and highly professional. In addition, I experienced several kinesiological sessions that brought me significant emotional relief. These sessions allowed me to gain new perspectives on patterns I hadn’t recognized before and helped me release them with greater ease. I recommend Mrs. Sandra as a knowledgeable and compassionate practitioner. She approaches each person holistically, integrating both physical and energetic perspectives. I look forward to continuing my work with her in the future.

Dr Rajiv Sood

Paediatrician

We took our baby to Dr Sood because he'd had diarrhea for 3 weeks and was chronically very spewy. Dr Sood diagnosed gastroenteritis, which is fine, but he also told us we shouldn't feed our (exclusively breastfed and four months old) baby more than every 3-4 hours, and that when he cried for milk sooner than that we should "put cotton wool in [our] ears". We've since been told by NHS doctors and health visitors that this is very old-fashioned advice that could cause dehydration in a diarrhetic baby. He also said to give 6 feeds a day, but we realised when we got home that it's not possible to follow both pieces of advice without waking him up in the night for extra night feeds! (We did tell Dr Sood that our baby sleeps 11 hours at night with just one night feed, but he didn't seem to believe us?)

I had a total knee replacement and from start to present, I have been treated amazingly. All staff are amazing and simply brilliant at their job and in particular care of patients. Special mention to Salmon (Sal) who looked after me on the day post operation. he was superb, so helpful and patient. The team that looked after me immediately post op, were terrific, so kind and understanding. Mr Gillespie's pre-operating team were so reassuring especially when I was so nervous regarding the spinal block. Thank you to everyone for such superb care and attention. Although I was in tremendous pain post op, I can now reflect and appreciate who well I was looked after and especially the individual care and attention displayed by the team - very simply 'thank you'

It was such a brilliant experience. I had treatment for my frozen shoulder and the staff from the receptionists to the consultant to the assistant to the nurses were absolutely brilliant. As a business owner, I strive for this type of customer service and your staff are the best representatives of perfection in their offering. I would like to especially thank the cosultant who carried out the treatment and his assistant (I fainted a few times so forgot their names) who were exceptional. Thank you very much for a challenging evening into such a pleasure.

From the very first consultation, Mr. Rahim Kaba put me at ease with his calm, professional manner and clear explanations. He took the time to answer all my questions, ensuring I fully understood the aqua ablation procedure and what to expect. On the day of the operation, his team was attentive and reassuring, and I felt confident I was in the best hands. The procedure itself was smooth, and the recovery has been far easier than I anticipated. I noticed improvements quickly, and the results have genuinely made a positive difference to my daily life.

Scheduling surgery for my son was a nerve-wracking experience, but from the moment we entered through the front door and met the caring receptionist and nurses, especially Cordelia, I felt reassured. Dr. Hamid Daya, the consultant, was gentle and attentive. The hospital was spotless and well-maintained, which gave me peace of mind. Overall, I am grateful for how smoothly everything went and for the compassionate care we received.

Leominster Osteopaths & Therapies

I have visited a couple of times now and cannot fault anything. Very quick to book me in (next day appointment), and so welcoming and informative whenever I’m there. My back is so much better and I have a knowledge on how to help myself in between appointments. The appointments have been easy going and not at all awkward or embarrassing (which I worried they would be!). Would definitely recommend!

Mr Steven McFarlane

Psychotherapist

Steven is an amazing therapist. He is empathetic and skilful. He offers a highly adaptive approach and gives rooms for whatever the I brought to the sessions. He offers EMDR, cognitive behavioural and talking therapy. Steven is focused on developing skills that can be used in the future. I would recommend Steven to anyone that is looking for an experienced and empathetic therapist.

Mr Nicholas Davies

General Surgeon

Mr Davies has successfully treated (through gallbladder removal surgery) something that had been making my life hell for the last year. I am beyond grateful and his expertise and professionalism shown throughout is very appreciated. My recovery has been a walk in the park compared to the suffering experienced prior to removal. I I highly recommend Mr Davies for gallbladder removal.

Dr Foteini Kavvoura

Diabetes & Endocrinology Specialist

Dr Kavvoura said as extremely professional but also vey warm. I felt she listened to me and explained what she thought the issue was. She asked me several times if I had questions and it seemed important to her that fully understood and was happy with the consultation. Dr Kavvoura is clearly extremely knowledgeable but does not bamboozle with jargon, she is very clear and concise.
