I attended the Neurology Clinic at Cleveland Clinic, Portland Place London for a second medical opinion (covered by my insurance) and I had ALL medical reports with me. The booking process was straightforward, and the reception team were excellent—very responsive and professional, with great customer service. I also appreciated that the clinic arranged for my MRI images to be transferred ahead of my appointment, so the consultant would have access to my medical history. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed with how the consultation itself went. I came with up-to-date MRI scans (completed recently through an NHS neuroscience unit), along with relevant medical reports and test results. However, the doctor did NOT properly review my MRI images, stating they were “bad quality,” and instead suggested I pay privately for repeat MRI scans at Cleveland Clinic London 3Tesla MRI scanner (my all mri's were done on 3Tesla scanners). He also recommended another lumbar puncture, again privately, despite the fact that I have already had one. Overall, I left with the strong impression that the focus was on arranging further paid tests rather than reviewing the information already available and providing a clear second opinion. In the end, I did not receive any meaningful second medical opinion, no conclusions were offered, and I felt I had not been listened to. To be fair, Dr Wallace Brownlee was polite, kind, and his manner was professional. The neurological examination was fine. However, I still left without any explanation or diagnostic opinion, despite no recent change in my clinical picture that would obviously justify repeating tests before offering an assessment. Based on my experience, I would not recommend Dr Wallace Brownlee for someone seeking a genuine second opinion.

I waited over an hour to be seen for my pre admission appointment. After being admitted and been shown to my room I was left for 5 hours in a cold room without anyone checking on me or giving me information about when my operation would be. Staff only turned up when I called and was then able to get some water as I was then advised that my operation was being delayed for a few hours. Short staffed. Slow to respond to buzzer calls. Staff always seemed to be busy doing something else other than looking after patients. Quite noisy ward during the day with people’s loud voices/laughing. Outdated facilities, no overhead bed light so had to have the main big room lights on all the time, which I could not control. I was moved to a different room after my operation as the first one did not have sufficient heating. The en-suite bathrooms are very outdated. Very short shower hose. In my second room there were 2 Rentokill boxes in shower. 50% of staff were friendly. I had major abdominal surgery. My night nurse was very compassionate and took very good care of me for 2 nights. I was discharged with the insufficient amount of painkillers to take home and without a physio assessment or much information about what symptoms to look out for and how to help recovery. I had to contact my own GP to get enough painkillers. Once discharged I had to walk with my husband all the way to the car at the pickup parking as there was no porter or wheelchair available. I had given 1h notice and then let her know again 10minutes before my husband arrived to collect me.

Ms Kathryn Tilbury (KT)

Physiotherapist

KT is by far the best physio I have ever been to. I went to KT to help to address a posterior pelvic tilt to help with a hip cam lesion as per instructions from a surgeon. KT took time in advance prior to our first appointment to read through the surgeon notes and very clearly understood what the notes suggested and was able to articulate this to me in a very easy to understand manner. KT really puts her patients first. She took time to understand what my personal goals were on the route to recovery such as getting back to a full gym routine and from the very first session suggested moderated ways in which I could build back up my routine. Under KTs clear and thoughtful guidance I was able to resume some level of exercise far quicker than I ever thought possible. KT provided very thorough instructions during our sessions and in the email write up that she sent after each session. Something I found particularly valuable was that KT demonstrated any exercises she gave me and then would film me doing the exercise on my phone to watch back, with her instructions voiced over the video. KT adapted well to my needs and continued to progress me in each session within what she knew I was capable of. After each session with KT I felt more and more assured and confident in my recovery. I could not recommend Katie enough, her friendly attitude and genuine desire to help not only aided in my recovery but made the entire process thoroughly enjoyable.

Excellent bedside manner with a true desire to get to the bottom of a problem. Free from the often occurring "I am so brilliant vibes" that I at times got from other consultants. Refreshing down to earth, approachable, very friendly. Most importantly, excellent listening skills, does not try to convenience you of a diagnosis after only hearing a quarter but appears to be thorough before making up his mind. Excellent communicator, who gets a patient fully involved, showing pictures to explain and explaining what he sees on a screen. I initially was a bit apprehensive thinking, hmmm has not got 3 decades of experience like some practitioners I saw in the past. On reflection, a good thing, still greatly motivated to make a difference and passionate about what he does. Deos not leave you feel watching the clock (he went over time, thank you) or rushed. Overall so far a positive experience (first consultation). I usually don't leave long feedbacks but if someone "goes the extra mile", so will I. Most importantly, if you had negative experiences before with consultants causing you pain/flare ups in the night and following day(s) due to handling you roughly during an examination, then give Dr Raiman a try. He very carefully moved my limbs with utmost consideration during the necessary examination, which helps building trust.

Freedom Vision - Chelmsford

Ophthalmology

I had cataract surgery on both eyes on 4th December 2025 and l was discharged today, 12th January 2026. I'm so pleased to say l don't need to wear glasses or contact lenses any more. From start to finish, my experience at Freedom Vision Chelmsford was exceptionally good - and my end result is superb vision. - more than l could ever have hoped for. Colours are radiant and bright, and probably the biggest bonus for me is feeling so much more confident driving at night. After undergoing rigorous tests and scans , the actual procedure is very quick and painless. All the staff, without question were delightfully kind people and I'd like to thank them all individually, if only l knew their names. But in particular, l'd like to thank Nicola who guided me patiently and expertly throughout the whole procedure, and a massive thank you to Mr Hove , my surgeon, for being such a genius. If you are contemplating cataract surgery, l urge you to go for it - don't be scared - you won't regret it!

I was made to wait 6 months for my cataract operations because I had a cardioversion. This is a short sedation rather than a general anaesthetic. I have been given no clinical explanations for this. I am in perfect health despite my age. I understand that a normal waiting time at other hospitals is 6 weeks with good recovery after a major operation. I suspect there are no clinical reasons, just a bureaucratic hesitation to take the slightest risk. I wonder how many patients discover that “Well soon” should be retitled “Well sometime”. Your bureaucratic incompetence is illustrated by your list of specialists which does not include the name of my surgeon, your lead ophthalmologist Dr Marzena Raszewska. It is her recorded ability that persuaded me to wait the 6 months rather than seek an alternative.

Miss Mala Subash

Ophthalmologist

I consider myself very lucky to be under the care of the NHS for my left eye issue. I was scared going to the L&D last Spring for the first time. However, I was reassured by the kindness and professionalism of all the staff. My eye problem was diagnosed and treatment followed immediately - and is continuing. The improvement in my left eye is akin to a miracle. I am humbled by the skill, kindness and care given me by all at the Eye Clinic - whilst also aware that they are being worked to the last drop of energy they possess.

Mr John Ferris

Ophthalmologist

This is the second cataract operation I have been through with Mr Ferris. The first some three years ago and now on my left eye in December 2025. On both occasions Mr Ferris treatment was outstanding. While he is extremely professional, his manner is also reassuring and straightforward. He explained my options regarding lenses very clearly, also what would happen during my surgery. His online videos were particularly helpful as I was able to view these before our initial meeting.

Quality Dental : Worthing

Dentistry

Disappointed I had to wait 20 minutes for an appointment first thing in the morning, however everything else was positive. Waiting area and treatment room were both tidy and clean. Staff were friendly and professional. Some additional work required and dentist took me through options for treatment and resulting cost. Dental work was very good and pain free(!). Payment all completed to my satisfaction. Overall, a positive experience

Dr Arif Aslam

Dermatologist

My experience with Dr Islam, his team and the super sophisticated surgery was exceptional. From my initial contact right through until I walked out of the door cancer free after just 2 hours was astonishing. It was testament to the MOHS technique and Dr Aslam’s skill. The procedural care could not have been surpassed therefore I would not hesitate to recommend Dr Aslam. Ken M. - procedure date 8th December 2025

Dr Edward Cetti

Respiratory Doctor

Dr Cetti had reviewed my earlier scans so was able to pinpoint the issue with my breathing. After a week monitoring my peak flow I returned and he confirmed the diagnosis of asthma. I was very pleased the issue was sorted so quickly and he prescribed an inhaler and gave me clear advice about going forward. I am so grateful to him for his help.

Dr David Moreno Ajona

Neurologist

Dr Moreno has been my consultant for the past year. His care has been excellent, and he explains everything very well. I selected Dr Moreno as a migraine specialist for a second opinion. He has worked with me to find the best treatment plan and for the first time in many years my migraines are improving.

Mr Mark Bailey

Psychotherapist

Mark has really helped me to unlock what was blocking me in life. Often from simply explaining it in such a way that I could see the issue from a different angle which made all the difference. Sometimes we had to dig a little deeper. He’s very personable and has been a tremendous help to me.

Mr Alex Chipperfield

Orthopaedic Surgeon

As I stated before Mr Chipperfield was beyond first class. And his team also. I'm sorry I cannot remember all the names. From my very first consultation with Mr Chipperfield until my procedure i experienced first class advice, efficiency, thoroughness and care.
