Mr Geoffrey Roberts

General Surgeon

I consulted Geoffrey Roberts at The Manor Hospital, Headington on 12th December 2025 regarding a hernia repair. In the circumstances, it was about as positive experience as it could possibly have been. He was friendly but professional, took a detailed history (which he remembered when I next met him on the day of the operation) and gave a very clear explanation of his diagnosis and the procedure for the repair. He filled me with unexpected confidence and was timely in confirming his advice in writing. I had the operation on 16th January 2026. It went extremely well and my recovery was swift and uncomplicated. He 'phoned me the day after the operation to make sure I was OK - for which I was grateful. I saw him for the post-op consultation on 28th January 2026, when I was discharged. The whole process was efficient and professional but at the same time strongly indicative of his clear investment in patient care. I cannot recommend him too highly.

Spencer Private Hospital Ashford

Audiology, Cardiology, + 11 more

I attended Spencer Ashford Hospital which was easy to find and was able to park nearby in the carpark using a Blue Badge displayed. Access was at ground level with no steps. Reception staff greeted me straight away and booked me in, provided necessary to complete my procedure. Toilets were easily accessed just off Reception and there is a water machine free. All staff including the medical team that I saw were engaging, jovial yet professional. The atmosphere was calm and relaxing with about three patients waiting. Mr Georgios Papadopoulos explained the procedure that I was undergoing in depth and was unrushed and very calm and inquired whether I had questions. His team were as fantastic ensuring that I was at ease throughout. At no point did I feel under pressure to leave after the procedure.

HCA Healthcare UK The Wellington Hospital

Gastroenterology, General Practice (GP), + 10 more

My visit was entirely satisfactory. The staff were exceptionally friendly at all times and they seem to meet a lot of them. I was getting informed about what was going to happen to me at all times. The menu was amazing and the whole place seem to be extremely efficiently run My only comment of an adverse nature would be that having been shown to a room on my arrival where my wife carefully unpacked all my belongings she she know sooner had left Than. I had to pack them all up again because I was being transferred to another room and then when I came out of the operating theatre before I went home, I had to wait three hours before I managed to get my belongings back again no book to read or iPad slightly frustrating but that was the only hiccup on an excellent visit.

Miss Jess McMicking

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

Jess was incredibly friendly and welcoming from our very first visit, and it was a complete no-brainer to work with her for my pregnancy and delivery. It was so reassuring to have her number throughout the pregnancy - with this being our first baby I had a lot of anxieties, and Jess was so patient in responding and reassuring me with every worry and query I had. I felt very safe and comfortable with Jess during the birth and trusted her opinions and advice completely. Although my birth didn't quite go to plan (when do they ever!) I came away with such a positive experience of birth and most importantly, a gorgeous healthy baby girl. We hope to come back to Jess for our future babies and absolutely recommend her to everyone! Thank you Jess :)

Kidswell Health

Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, Endocrinology & Diabetes, + 3 more

Honestly, it was an amazing experience from start to finish. Everyone I spoke to was incredibly friendly and efficient, and the attention to detail really stood out. The clinic is thoughtfully designed to appeal to all ages — my 8 year old was quite apprehensive beforehand but ran straight in as soon as she spotted the Rubik’s cubes. The doctor was warm and approachable, and I was genuinely surprised to receive his report within just a few hours of the appointment. I’ve been to private clinics before, but nothing has compared to this level of care. Even being asked for feedback shows how much thought and consideration goes into Kidswell Health.

1)I found the signage to the main lifts and to Lyndhurst rooms confusing. There should be signage in the ground floor lift lobby saying which departments are on which floor. I have been complaining about this since 1971. 2)The excellent group portrait of the Royal Free consultants in about 1970 which used to be on the ground floor but has now been removed to the 12th Floor no longer has the key saying who they are. This is a digrace and an insult to the memory of a fine group of men (and about ten women), The key should be found and reinstated immediately.

ABBI Clinic - Preston

Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, Psychiatry, + 2 more

Different time slots and sessions or more flexibility. Clearer communication between services and funders. Digital timetable, links and resources could benefit from being clearer/more easy to find. Mixed bag of staff, although the weaker ones did go quite quickly it still felt as though I was a bit of a guinea pig and didn't get as much from those sessions. Core team very caring, compassionate and supportive. Environment is an downside, a shared office building is not the best setting.

Mr Zacharia Silk

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I have no words to truly express how wonderful Mr Silk is. Not only his professionalism as a surgeon but also his ability to explain everything in detail and have the time to really make his patients feel at ease. As a parent of a teenage daughter he really understood what are anxieties and concerns were and he spent time to consider all of this. Mr Silk is a credit to his profession and to the hospital and we could not thank him enough for all his support through our daughters journey.

Peninsula Heart Clinic

Cardiology

My appointment with Dr Guy Haywood was very good. - Dr Haywood had read the briefing information I supplied about my condition. - Dr Haywood interviewed me to establish how my atrial fibrillation was affecting me. - Dr Haywood examined me and my ECG and then explained very clearly the available treatments and their limitations. I am now happy that I have a better understanding of my condition and the options open to me if my condition starts to impact my activities.

Dr. Matthew Ryan

Cardiologist

I was recently referred to Matthew for some suspected heart-related issues, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From the moment the consultation began, he was incredibly reassuring. He took the time to explain everything in a way that was easy to understand, which really helped settle my nerves. I felt completely at ease throughout the entire process and left feeling confident in the next steps for my care.

Southside Medical Private Clinic

Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, Audiovestibular Medicine, + 7 more

I visited the clinic today with my elderly mother who is experiencing a number of health concerns. Dr Oates was kind professional and extremely thorough during the consultation. He made my mum feel very comfortable and explained everything very well. We now have a plan in place to move forward and feel more positive. We would definitely use the clinic in the future and would 100% recommend to others.

Mr Matthew Ward

ENT Surgeon

I am extremely happy with the care I received from Mr Matthew Ward following my thyroidectomy. He was professional, reassuring, and took the time to explain everything clearly before and after the surgery. The procedure and recovery were handled with great care, and I felt confident and well looked after throughout. I’m very grateful for the excellent service and would highly recommend him.

Mr Adel Tavakkolizadeh

Orthopaedic Surgeon

This was my final check-up with Mr Tavakkolizadeh. I cannot over-emphasise how grateful I am to him for both my successful shoulder joint replacements - starting in 2022. From the outset he was reassuring, very knowledgeable, professional- and really charming. I can assure any future patients that they will have the best of treatment. And - as I’ve said before - I just wish he did knees!!!

Venturi Cardiology

Cardiology

9/10 My Sonographer Rima Shah was fantastic, professional and informative. To improve the service i think it would be nice if a cardiologists could quickly glance/look over results and give a brief written note/summary of results/heart health. It is a shame that in order to get a cardiologists insight/reassurance I then have to rebook and pay for an additional appointment.

Mr Aemn Ismail

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I had a follow-up call with Mr. Ismail, and as always, the experience was outstanding. He demonstrated the same high level of professionalism that has helped me regain my health and confidence. He listened carefully, provided reassurance, and reinforced my trust that I am receiving the best care. I highly recommend him for his expertise, compassion, and approachability.

Dr Subramaniam Ramakrishnan

Gastroenterologist

I highly recommend Dr Ramakrishnan. He is friendly and puts you at ease from the very start of your appointment. He listens and gives you time to explain your concerns, and importantly clearly explains each step to be taken with any tests/ treatment. Results are clearly explained too. He is extremely professional at all times. A very kind gentleman.
