Dr. Gary Stiefel

Paediatrician

Due to the lengthy waiting lists to be seen by the NHS, we decided to go down the private route and we're very glad that we did. Shortly after we had made the appointment, Dr Stiefel gave us a courtesy call to see if we had any urgent concerns that he could help with and to also advise us on a few things we could do ahead of the appointment - straight away this put us at ease. At the appointment Dr Stiefel was great with my 9 month old son - he reviewed his eczema and explained everything about the allergy testing - the appointment never felt rushed and he was very happy to answer all of my questions. There is alot of stigma around some of the eczema treatments - Dr Stiefel is very knowledgeable and was very reassuring which gave us the confidence to use them. With regards to the nut allergies my son has, Dr Stiefel kindly gave us a trainer epi pen and discussed what the next steps were - he made what was a very worrying diagnosis into something that is a bit more easier to deal with. Dr Stiefel gave me a call shortly after the appointment to see if we had any further questions, to give us more reassurance and to let us know that we can reach out to him if we thought of anything or had any concerns, which we were very grateful for.

Mr Chethan Jayadev

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Mr Jayadev is the consummate professional and an amazing surgeon. I cannot praise him or thank him enough after he identified issues with my knee that others hadn't. He carefully, and in detail, discussed the options for treatment, and listened attentively and compassionately to all my questions and comments. He tailored treatment accordingly and ensured that all eventualities could be dealt with on the day of surgery. As well as dealing with a fractured patella, he performed revision knee replacement surgery. I anticipated a longer, and more uncomfortable recovery than that of the previous knee replacements. It turned out to be the opposite and I put that down to the skill of the surgeon. Absolutely amazing.. I would highly recommend Mr Jayadev to anyone that has knee problems and is searching for an orthopaedic surgeon who specialises in this field. If I could give him a ten star rating out of five, I would.

Newmedica Swindon

Ophthalmology

My visit to Newmedica was very good., I was greeted by the receptionist who took my name and then showed to the waiting room. The first consultant came out to the waiting room and introduced herself with a smile, That did for me, I felt at ease straight away. She started by asking security questions and then went on with her normal procedures for the next 20 minutes. Back in the waiting room I was greeted by the second consultant who led me to his office. There I had a scan taken of my eyes and afterwards went through what he had seen. He then talked about the operation itself which was very interesting..The only thing I didn’t like was having eye drops because I couldn’t drove myself home.

Dr. Rakesh Jivan

General Practitioner

Dr Rakesh Jivan has always been extremely helpful and supportive whenever I have needed medical advice. When I developed a painful boil on my leg, he guided me through the next steps and ensured I sought the appropriate treatment. He has also provided valuable advice regarding ongoing knee problems and helped point me in the right direction for further assessment. He is knowledgeable, approachable and genuinely cares about his patients. I have always found him willing to listen and explain things clearly. Thank you for your continued support and guidance. I would highly recommend Dr Rakesh Jivan.

Dr. Islam Heliel

Psychiatrist

Dr Islam Heliel performed my ASD/ADHD assessment where he was compassionate, understanding and professional. He has helped me with my medication titration, which was the purpose of my last visit, where he takes a cation first approach with dosages and ongoing monitoring of my health which has helped ensure my wellbeing throughout titration (ongoing). He explains everything in easy to understand language and takes the time to listen to what I have to say. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking help with their Neurodiverse assessment and ongoing medication needs.

Mr Richard Husicka

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I would highly recommend a consultation with Mr Husicka. I was nervous and worried beforehand, but his approach was kind, down to earth and I felt at ease immediately. He was friendly, professional, very knowledgeable and methodical (in a good way) He was able to give me a clear picture and understanding, explaining thoroughly the different options available to me. Above all he was empathetic, human and I felt listened to. First time in a long while. I left the appointment feeling informed, heard, relieved and positive. Thankyou

Cambridge Heart Clinic

Cardiology

Initial online request for an appointment didn’t receive a response so after a couple of days, I phoned and it was obvious that the office was very short-staffed and had not picked up my request. My request was then passed to the doctor’s secretary who phoned me the next day with the offer of an appointment to fill a cancellation. So the process of actually getting an appointment was a bit of a disappointment initially. The appointment itself was fine and all the staff that we met were polite, friendly and very professional.

Dr Borzoueh Mohammadi

General Surgeon

Dr Mohammadi is one of the best consultants I have visited. After 15 years of undiagnosed gallbladder pain and being dismissed by many consultants Mr Mohammadi gave me an answer and throughout the process of tests delivered everything so clearly always gave me options the bedside manner and care have honestly made my experience second to none and this life changing diagnosis give me my power back to decide next steps for myself - I would 100% trust him with my surgery and recommend to anyone in the future

St Giles Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy, Sports Rehabilitation, + 1 more

I highly recommend St Giles Physiotherapy. The therapies and treatment I received there have made a real difference and helped me regain my mobility. The team was professional, supportive, and attentive throughout, always explaining everything clearly and adapting the treatment to my needs. I felt listened to and well cared for, and I’m very grateful for the improvement I have experienced. Thank you to the team at St Giles Physiotherapy for their excellent care and support.

Mr James Riley

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Mr Riley took care to explain the whole procedure for my knee replacement, the risks and post operative care needed. He listened carefully to my concerns and answered all my questions. He took pains to emphasise that he was part of a team, which included post-operative care and myself. He explained he would see me the day following the operation, and again in a few weeks and then after 6 months. At all times he has been very professional and understanding.

Dr Leyla Swafe

General Surgeon

This is an excellent service, where you get examined and scanned all in one session. The doctor can look at the scans and ask for further scans at the same appointment, so you aren't dragged back and forth between consultations and scans. Each member of staff is very professional, helpful, and clear about what they are doing and why. Dr Swafe herself is very calm, obviously very competent, and kind. You might think this is standard, but it's not!

The York Dental Suite by Mafalda Queiroz

Dentistry

I can’t recommend The York Dental Suite enough. All the staff are so welcoming and professional. As a very nervous patient, Mafalda has always been incredibly kind, patient, and reassuring, which has made every visit much less daunting. An added bonus this time was the new air conditioning – it made the whole experience even more comfortable! Thank you to everyone at The York Dental Suite for your excellent care.

Mental Health Dietitians

Dietetics

I was receiving support from Sophie for the last year and have had such a positive experience. Each session is easily accessible online, with email follow ups of notes and plans to keep you on track with goals. The booking system is easy to use and there are dates in advance so you can plan life accordingly around sessions. It has been so beneficial to receive well informed support.

Manchester Private Hospital

Breast Surgery, Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, + 2 more

The hospital have been amazing with myself, the surgeon especially has put myself at ease every time I have seen him, very down to earth which is what I like as you don't want to feel uncomfortable with someone who is going to alter your appearance. Some staff have been harsh with words (could of just had a bad day)but on a hole they have been lovely.

Vitalscan

Diagnostics & Testing, Endocrinology & Diabetes, + 8 more

I had an MRI scan for suspected endometriosis while being on the waiting list on the NHS. One of the best decisions. The staff was friendly and very supportive. I have claustrophobia and they were very patient with me and talked me through everything that was going to happen as well as offering the widest MRI for comfort. I would definitely recommend!
