The Focal Therapy Clinic

Oncology

I went for an independent assessment of my prostate cancer diagnosis with a possible view to private treatment if I did not get chosen for focal therapy on the NHS trial that I hade been offered. Also to help me make my mind up which of the many options offered to me by the NHS A consultation was quickly arranged via Mr Doherty’s p.a. for £250 which my wife and I attended. I was given an excellent appraisal at the meeting followed by a letter that outlined a meeting Mr Doherty had with his peers to discuss my case. The letter confirmed that in their opinion focal therapy was a good option in my particular case having had access to my medical records This in my view was an excellent service for the fee but I was lucky enough to be chosen for this focal treatment under the NHS trial, I would have gone private had not my private medical insurance rejected my claim (that is another story) I am however indebted to Mr Doherty’s help and service which he provided So far the day operation held in Oxford on the 10th Nov 2025 has had very few downsides although I am still awaiting the final result on Jan 13th 2026 and hoping for a positive result from my consultant on this day The treatment was far less intrusive that the other options offered to me for which I count myself very lucky. Under the trial I will be monitored so that the NHS can find out how the longer term prognosis is for focal treatments so they are able to offer this more widely in the NHS. For my selfish sake I hope that it is good news for me and will enable others to benefit from my experience now and in the future. I am aged 74 and look forward to good health for the foreseeable future.🤞

Moorfields Private Eye Hospital

Ophthalmology

I attended the hospital to have planned eye surgery consisting of cataract removal, lens replacement and full thickness corneal replacement under general anaesthetic. I arrived early and was allocated to a private ensuite room with secure storage. Nurses confirmed all the necessary checks that had been conducted the previois day in pre-assessment. A nurse applied gel to my hand to numb it ready for a cannula and provided surgical stockings. The anaesthetist visited to re-confirm details and provide reassurance. The surgeon visited to review procedure and risks. The nurse accompanied me to the anaesthesia room and looked after my clothes. After fitting the cannula painlessly, after the anaesthetic I knew nothing until awakening in recovery, with a pad over the affected eye. I was taken back to my room feeling fit and well. Nurses checked on me and provided the refreshments I had ordered. The surgeon visited again to confirm the follow up appointment. Medications were made ready, with post operative guidance. My chaperone arrived to take me home. The whole thing was completed on schedule.

Every time I come for an outpatient appt, the specialist is an hour behind time.. the secretary/receptionist should have called ahead of time to expect delays but they don’t!! They leave it till the time of the appt to mention the hefty delay!! Last time I had to leave as I could not wait out an hr delay! So complete waste of my time & money grrr! Something that could easily be rectified with better communication from the clinic!! Including the fact when I had an outpatient procedure, I had a 2.45hrs delay as there was a delay due to an emergency in the morning.. again no contact from the clinic informing me of this delay.. had I been informed earlier before arriving at my appt which was scheduled at 1pm, I didn’t not have the procedure till 3.45!! Had there been communication from your clinic informing me of the delay I would have left home later and not have left the dogs alone for 8hrs due to the clinics inability to keep patients informed of delays!! Grrr! Every single time due to lack of communication I’m left frustrated and angry!

Miss Aimee Di Marco

Diabetes & Endocrinology Specialist, General Surgeon

I cannot recommend Miss Di Marco highly enough. She is an outstanding surgeon who specialises in thyroid and parathyroid disease, and her care went far beyond technical excellence. From our very first consultation, she took time to explain the procedure in clear, reassuring terms, patiently talking me through what to expect and answering all my questions. Most importantly, she made me feel genuinely listened to and reassured, which made an enormous difference. As a result, I felt calm, informed, and confident going into surgery. In theatre, just before I went under, she spoke to me in a calm, steady voice and talked me through the laryngoscopy step by step. That simple act of kindness made me feel safe, relaxed, and completely confident that I was in the very best hands — which I truly was. Miss Di Marco combines exceptional surgical skill with real compassion and humanity. I am deeply grateful for her care and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing thyroid or parathyroid surgery.

Dr Athina Zakynthinaki

Psychiatrist

My teen daughter has been under the care of Dr Zakynthinaki for the last 3 months for autistic burnout alongside low mood and anxiety. Dr Zakynthinaki has been wonderful in so many ways - she's empathetic with my daughter and with me, she listens and she's been incredibly responsive to our questions. She explains things so well and in a lot of detail, which I really appreciate. It's so refreshing to come across a specialist who's willing to work with a patient so diligently and with so much care - who can offer not only the clinical experience, but is also very patient-focussed. I feel we are both seen and heard by her. If you are looking for support for your child / adolescent, particularly if they are neurodiverse, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Dr Zakynthinaki!

Ms Rachel Clarkson

Highly recommentd for anyone to feel better about themselves and best set oneself up to thrive! Thank you very much for everything Rachel and I cannot wait to continue going on this journey with your guidance :)

Mr Gavin Love

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Had a consultation with Mr Love. I needed a partial knee replacement. Mr Love explained the process clearly in terms I understood. I agreed that this was right for me to go ahead with. I was also given an email contact if I had any questions. I didn't have to wait long for Operation date. I was in hospital for one night. It is now six week since my surgery and back out walking my spaniel and getting on with my life. Best thing I did.

Prof. Andrew Davies

General Surgeon

Mr Davies was excellent throughout my initial consultation, operation and post operative care. I had all the information about my condition and the procedure explained in detail along with all my questions answered in detail. I would also like to comment on Mr Davies surgical skills, I’m super impressed with the neatness of the scar tissue and the dressings applied post surgery. I would absolutely recommend Mr Davies.

I was very nervous about cataract surgery but was instantly put at ease by Dr Tint. He explained the procedure in detail and reassured me I was in safe hands. It was also important to me to get the follow up appointments post op and to get the professional feedback which he provided.. Dr Tint was recommended to me by a family friend and I' am so happy that I went with their recommondations.My experience was first class.

Dr Scot Garg

Cardiologist

My latest visit was to update my situation after the results of my heart. MRI scan had been received.. thankfully it was all good news. Dr Garg explained everything to me. He, outlined the plans for my care going forward., a change in medication and he will arrange a routine update in clinic in about three months time, plus another scan. Very pleased, relieved following my visit to see the doctor.

Miss Hui-Ling Kerr

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I cannot thank Miss Kerr enough. She has quite literally changed my life. I went in not being about to sit, stand or walk. Less than 24 hours post surgery, I had no pan and could do all of the above. She explained everything so clearly to me and my family members and kept them updated during and after surgery. Post surgery advice and help has also been wonderful. Thank you Miss Kerr!

Mr Mazen Tahhan

Ophthalmologist

From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank the team and Mr Tahhan. Every single person is a great human in the team. I would highly recommend Mr Tahhan and his team he is the best consultant I came across. Thank you. I had my surgery in my other eye somewhere else but this time I would highly recommend to get a cataract done here. An excellent service.

Excellent service! Thank you! The below is not to do with Dr Surpriya B an all. Just a recommendation for Nuffield in general please - Just need to ensure blood tests results are being transferred to the NHS GP records appropriately. If the logistical dynamics of this could be sorted where results can link to the nhs app too, everything would be spot on!

Vision Scotland Edinburgh

Ophthalmology, Optometry

From beginning to end the whole experience was very professional. Staff all extremely friendly and helpful and each step of the way was explained and discussed. The surgery has been a complete success and I no longer require distance glasses and a lower prescription for reading glasses. Thank you to everyone at Vision Scotland.

I actually saw Mr Floyd at the Platinum Scene but had surgery at the Highgate Hospital. Couldn't fault either. The Highgate Hospital, whilst smaller than the Wellington is brilliantly run, the staff are friendly and attentive, my anaesthetist was a really nice man and the food was pretty good too!
