Mr Hemant Vakharia

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I am deeply thankful to Mr. Vakharia and his team for the exceptional care provided before, during, and after my recent endometriosis surgery. His patient-centred approachfostered complete trust in the process throughout. My initial consultation with Mr. Vakharia was due to complaints of excruciating menstrual pain that had eventually become constant. I was grateful that he listened to my symptoms patiently and did not dismiss my pain, respecting my feeling that "something isn't right." He immediately referred me for a diagnostic ultrasound, which subsequently confirmed the diagnosis of endometriosis. Following the diagnosis, Mr. Vakharia thoroughly reviewed all available treatment options, clearly explaining the risks and benefits of each. Crucially, I never felt pressured; he emphasised that the final decision was mine, based on my lifestyle and preferences. When I chose surgery, he advised that it would need to be a joint procedure with a colorectal surgeon due to the complex nature of my endometriosis. Mr. Jenkins, colorectal surgeon was also very thorough and explained his part in the surgery very patiently. On the day of surgery, the bedside manner of the entire team—including the colorectal surgeon, the anaesthesiologist, and Mr. Vakharia himself—was phenomenal. I felt incredibly assured and supported entering the operating theatre. Post-surgery, I felt fully supported throughout my recovery in the hospital. Mr. Vakharia personally visited me multiple times during my stay, which was hugely reassuring and helped ease any anxieties. One month post-surgery, I am recovering exceptionally well. The debilitating pain I experienced before the procedure is now almost entirely resolved. To put it simply, I feel I have my life back. I am deeply thankful for Mr. Vakharia's surgical skill, dedication, and compassionate approach to women's health.

medneo

Diagnostics & Testing, Neurology, + 3 more

I was really please with the quality of service at Medneo Great Portlane Street and the speed at which I got my results. The medics seemed very professional and made me feel calm. I wish I'd used the service sooner as before getting a private MRI which I paid for myself I had had a number of physio treatments and exercise plans which may my injury worse due to them not knowing what was actually wrong. They were working blind as it were. And the NHS wouldn't put me on a waiting list for a MRI through them. I got a 3T scan which I believe shows a bit more than a 1.5 scanner which cast me £299. If you can afford it it might be the right choice for you. I would definitely go to these people to have a scan again if I develop another injury.

Osteopath West

Neurology, Osteopathy, + 2 more

I had an acute pain in my right leg and had difficulty walking. Having had IDD treatment at Osteopath West before for sciatica I called and was given an appointment later that day. On arrival i was given a thorough examination and it was decided that I most likely had a pulled muscle as well as a nerve issue. I had some deep massage on my back and leg followed by an IDD session. The result today is that the pain is considerably better and i can now walk mush better than before. I am grateful for the prompt appointment and the service I received and would recommend Osteopath West to people in a similar position.

Dentalia Dental Clinic & Denture Studio

Dentistry

I am absolutely terrified of the dentist but recently I was suffering from toothache so really had to put my big girl pants on and book an appointment with one. I was recommended Dentalia by a friend so gave them a call. From the first call to book an appointment to actually receiving the treatment was first class. They were all so friendly, kind and patient with me, and put me at ease. I have actually booked an appointment to go back for a proper checkup which believe me I didn’t think I would ever do. I would highly recommend Dentalia, so give them a call if you have phobia like me.

ADHD @ Well Life Clinic

General Practice (GP)

I had a very positive experience with ADHD @ Well Life Clinic. From the first point of contact, the process felt professional, supportive, and well-structured. The clinician was knowledgeable, attentive, and took the time to really listen, which made me feel understood rather than rushed or judged. The assessment was thorough, clear, and handled with care, and I felt supported throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone seeking an ADHD assessment in a respectful, compassionate, and professional environment.

Dr. Katie Cowie

General Practitioner

Spoke with Dr. Cowie about starting HRT treatment. She explained why she thinks I should start (low energy, sleeping problems, foggy brain, sinusitis and dry eyelid oil glands). Also how to use the treatment, and what side effects I may have. We talked about the fact that I can call or email her anytime if I have questions or concerns while on the treatment. She is friendly, professional, efficient, and caring. I feel like I had ample time to talk about my concerns and left not feeling worried about my health and my future well being.

Mr Alistair Balfour

ENT Surgeon

I saw Mr Balfour regarding a persistent long term balance disorder. He listened very attentively and took the time to carefully review my past medical tests and reports. He was then able to suggest the next step forward to find the root problem looking at my symptoms from a different viewpoint which was quite refreshing as I felt no one had considered what I had been explaining in the past. Whether the tests will reveal the problem or not I am very grateful to Mr Balfour for his knowledge and professionalism.

Dr Tristan Ramcharan

Cardiologist, Paediatrician

DR Tristan was brilliant with our son. He explained everything very clearly so that we both could understand. He was patient and responsive. He was able to give us an answer and explanation at the appppointment and all the tests were done there and then. This helped with all the worry. The appointment was booked quickly and very responsive to email. I would definitely recommend having the understanding around dysatonia and children who do sport was amazing. We both felt listened too

HCA Healthcare UK The Princess Grace Hospital

Ear Nose & Throat Surgery (ENT/Otolaryngology), Endocrinology & Diabetes, + 8 more

I only saw Mr Lambert so cannot give feed back on any other member of his team. From being referred by someone who knows him well, I was predisposed to like him and respect his expertise, but hadn't expected to find such a a courteous, thoughtful, kind man who engaged with every aspect of me as a patient. Mr Lambert answered all my questions and was patient and understanding. I felt listened to, for the first time since I had my injury.

Kingsend Dental: Ruislip

Professionally and highly experienced team! I had tooth pain which came on suddenly. I went to see Dr Nalin he advised that I needed a root canal. He explained to me what has gone wrong, what needs to be done and the exact process of what he will do. He was very knowledgeable and ensured that I understood everything clearly. The treatment was pain free and my symptoms were gone! Highly recommended. Thank you

Thames Valley General Surgery

General Surgery, Medical Weight Loss

Prior to the surgery Mr Greg Jones explained everything about the procedure with empathy. During the operation Mr Jones and all his team were pleasant and courteous at at times. At the post operative visit I was impressed at how much detail we went through and even viewed some images of the surgery - this element is an optional extra service. Overall an excellent service which I would not hesitate to recommend..

Professor Richard Hindley

Urologist

I researched the background literature and videos concerning pros and cons of prostrate treatments for benign enlargement and was impressed by the informative summary published under his name. I was interested in two forms of treatment but my first choice is not yet available in the UK. Fortunately Professor Hindley is experienced in the Rezum method for which he deemed me a suitable candidate

Ms Bhavna Sharma

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I am beyond grateful for Dr. Sharma and her exceptional care. My husband and I had been trying to conceive for three years without success due to PCOS. Through her expertise, she helped regulate my cycle, which ultimately allowed us to conceive. We recently welcomed our baby, and we owe so much to her compassionate care and dedication. We couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Dr Catherine Spencer-Smith

Sport & Exercise Medicine Doctor

I found this appointment a very productive and uplifting experience. Dr Spencer-smith is clearly an expert in her field but also has a lovely and personable manner that put me at my ease immediately. In fact I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and left having a very definite planned way forward treatment wise and a correspondingly very positive outlook on the future.

Mr Mohamed Hammadeh

Urologist

Mr Hammadeh diagnosed the issue immediately and within a month I’d had a procedure which resolved it. Mr Hammadeh was very calm and assured throughout. Gave me a lot of confidence that my treatment was well understood and nothing to worry about. The operation was successful. There was very little pain or inflammation. I was very satisfied by the whole experience.
