Miss Deepika Akolekar

Breast Surgeon, General Surgeon

I approached Miss Akolekar on October 25th.for a second opinion, recommended by BUPA. She immediately assessed my situation and within a week had organised an Ultrasound scan (then a PetScan) and appointments with an oncologist, a haematologist and a plastic surgeon. The plastic surgeon and his specialist nurse initiated a wound dressing regime which healed my mastectomy wound in just over a week (a wound that had remained open and infected since early August). Miss Akolekar kept me fully informed throughout these appointments, telling me the possible outcomes and filling me with confidence that my situation was reparable. She was always kind, professional and empathetic.

Mr Kalpesh Vaghela

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I met Mr Vaghela back in April this year, following a GP referral and confirmed carpal tunnel syndrome at my left hand. He was really thorough in examining my hand and explaining my symptoms and what was causing them. Once it was established that surgery would be the best option for my problem, he spent time in explaining what the procedure would entail, the recovery time, any positive outcome as well as any potential negative effects. The operation went very well and my hand has been improving since. I truly appreciate the care he has shown before, during and after the operation, and how approachable, thoughtful and supportive he is.

Mr Edward Lee

Ophthalmologist

The quality of my sight in both eyes has been greatly improved by 2 recent operations performed by Mr Lee. His surgical skills have almost completely resolved a distressing epiretinal membrane condition I suffered from 3 years ago and sight in that eye is now excellent. Recently, I had cataract surgery to the other eye and again, sight is now excellent in that eye too. His impressive surgical skills are matched by his kind, patient and reassuring manner, this is very helpful for the anxious patient. I would certainly return to him should I require any further treatments.

Mr Matthew Oliver

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Mr Oliver did a total knee replacement on my right knee twelve years ago at the William Harvey Hospital in Ashford. I knew, without a doubt, that I would like him to perform the same operation on my left knee. As before Mr Oliver was very easy to relate and talk to about my knee and any problems that may arise. As before he was friendly, whilst remaining professional, as were all his team. Everything was explained to me in a way I could understand and comprehend. I would not hesitate in recommending him to anyone having this operation.

Cathedral Eye Clinic

Ophthalmology, Optometry

I have been attending Cathedral Eye Clinic since May, when Mr Niraj Mandal carried out cataract surgery on my left eye. A follow-up operation to stitch the iris was also successful. Although I still experience some blurring at distance, tests show 6/6 vision, and this is due to be corrected with laser treatment in the New Year. I am very pleased with the way the consultations and overall service have been carried out. The care has been professional and reassuring throughout, and I am looking forward to improved distance vision in 2026

I really appreciate how the clinic was quick and efficient their responses and sorting appointments. I would really recommend as the doctor can be highly trusted; I found appointments were comfortable and adds some humour which can help put you at ease. They take time and listen to any concerns, thoroughly explain everything. I was reassured with any questions I had and feel welcome to contact them for further support.

Mr Tim Janssen

Plastic Surgeon

I was given back my face from my early thirties. By carefully and safely restoring my youthful facial anatomy, Dr. Janssen performed not just a procedure, but a true reconstruction of youth. My biggest fear was noticeable surgery traces and a loss of individuality, but his extensive portfolio erased all hesitation. As a patient I placed my complete trust in him, and he returned it a hundredfold.

Excellent experience from start to finish for my CT guided nerve block injection. All staff were extremely professional and demonstrated high levels of empathy. Even though the doctor was delayed, the staff kept me updated and ensured I was feeling comfortable. Before and during the procedure, everything was explained and staff were keen to check on my wellbeing. Thanks so much to all involved.

Meadows & Wood Hearing Care - Portishead

Audiology, Diagnostics & Testing

I arrived a little early but was seen by Toby almost immediately Toby greeted me in a very pleasing manner and after an initial examination removed wax from both ears without causing discomfort. He then carried out an examination of both hearing aids and informed me that they were both in good order. I was finished in a little under fifteen minutes and left delighted with the service.

Great Western Hospitals Private Healthcare

Vascular Surgery, Audiology, + 16 more

Nurses were all keen to offer care, and talk, which I appreciated, it's easy to get in your own head, and I appreciated the distraction! One thing I would comment on is that there is always a long wait. I was asked to arrive at 8:30am, but I didn't actually have my procedure until 10:30, which gave lots of time to think. A more streamlined appointment process would be helpful

Ms Zoe Laxton

Psychotherapist

Zoe has genuinely changed my life. She is a very kind, honest, and firm DBT therapist who doesn’t let you avoid the truth or lie to yourself. While always compassionate, she holds you accountable in a way that feels supportive rather than judgmental. Her approach has helped me build real, lasting skills and a much stronger sense of stability. Zoe is an amazing therapist.

The treatment and encouragement I continue to receive has and is excellent and I expect my personal well being will be restored

Mr Barry Rose

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Mr Rose brought humour to a situation which I had begun to find distressing. More to the point, he was confident and positive when discussing the removal of the metal fixation from my ankle. I had previously joined a webinar that he offered during the summer and I found this very informative and helpful. Mr Rose has ‘energy’ and I felt the benefit of that quality!

Dr Idris Harding

Cardiologist

Dr Idris was extremely professional and very interested in making sure I understood all the consultation process. His professionalism let me calm down my stress accumulated because of the nature of the consultation. As soon as we sat down, he clearly explained the process and next steps we will make from there. Highly reccomanded.
