Eastwood Community Endoscopy Centre LTD

Gastroenterology, General Surgery

I went in today for my first ever colonoscopy. Although I was nervous, every staff member I met made me feel comfortable and at ease. there was a brief 10 minute wait before I saw the nurse, who was very informative about the procedure and took some recordings (blood pressure, heart rate etc.) before asking me some questions. After not very long at all I went into the room to have my procedure and Samer and his team were excellent in talking me through the process, what I might experience, and how long it would be. They regularly checked in on me throughout to ask how I was doing. Regarding the colonoscopy itself - overall I felt no pain at all really - some discomfort from the gas (which they make you aware of) but otherwise it was fine. I chose sedation rather than gas & air, and found this worked well for me. It is an odd sensation in general; but manageable. The procedure took maybe 20 minutes, before I was moved to recovery. The recovery nurse & all staff members there were very friendly. They read me my report, made sure I understood the results, and gave me some biscuits and squash (which I was grateful for after 24H of not eating!) - I was out from here after around 20 minutes, having no notable lingering side effects from either the medication or procedure. Overall, fantastic service from everyone. Thank you so much.

Ms Monica Durigon

Nutritionist

I went to see Monica as I was struggling with irregular periods, low energy, bloating, irregular bowel movements, and generally not feeling at my best. Monica took a thorough medical and symptom history and organised functional testing for me, including a stool test and a hormone test. She quickly identified that my thyroid needed support and focused on improving my gut health. I followed a nutritional and supplementation plan for three months, which was practical and, I must say, also delicious. Now my energy is great, my bowel movements are regular, I no longer have a bloated belly, and my period is only a couple of days off a 28-day cycle. I am over the moon with the results and would recommend Monica to any woman struggling with low energy, hormone-related challenges, or digestive issues. She has been incredibly supportive and understanding, and the plan she created for me was completely tailored to my busy lifestyle, as well as my likes and dislikes. I will continue to see Monica at regular intervals to make sure I continue to feel great.

Psychology

Hi My time with glenda was superb , since the start of my sessions i was greeted with great compassion. Glenda has a great ability to dig up issues that made me feel i was in the right place. When i was diagnosed with depression ,anxiety ,ptsd and finally adhd glenda started with my adhd issues first which we worked together to finally understand my feelings and also understand who i was . Glenda has really helped me with talking about my depression in a big way as i thought it was just normal to feel sucidal all the time and thinking real bad things in my mind. I have always known there was something not quite right since when i was young but again i thought it was normal but glenda taught me to understand that things i did and have done over the years were not so normal . I felt i was in good hands with glenda and like to thanks her again for helping me at such a bad time in my life , and if anyone else in this world needs that help glenda is there to help. I am now in a better place

Mr John (Ian) Jenkins

General Surgeon

I've been under Mr Jenkins' care for almost two years now. Based on my own experience, and my recovery from pretty serious, life-changing surgery, he's an excellent, skilled surgeon. Before I got anywhere near an operating theatre, I was reassured by his thoroughness, his clear and sensitive communication, and his patience with my questions and concerns. In his follow up to my surgery, he has been both optimistic and cautious at the right times, and ensured that no stone has been left unturned to ensure good outcomes. Lastly, he's surrounded himself with good people, from his practice to the theatre. You can be confident that if he is working with someone, or recommending a referral, then you'll be in equally good hands.

Mr Jonathan Yu

Ophthalmologist

Mr Yu performed successful glaucoma surgery on my eye 2 months ago. He is highly skilled and knowledgeable, taking the time to clearly explain the procedure to me beforehand, patiently answering all my questions fully. He is very calm and reassuring, (as is his whole team) so I felt relaxed and confident on the day. His continuing aftercare has been excellent, and my eye recovered more quickly than I expected, with much less pain than I had anticipated, all down to his high level of expertise. I will definitely choose him for future treatment and have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone considering this type of surgery. I am so grateful to him and his team.

Mr Georgios Exarchos

General Surgeon

Dear Mr. Georgios, ♥️ Let the beauty of what you love be what you do ♥️ I am so grateful for your professionalism and empathy. From the first moment we met in the doctor's office, I knew I was under the best care. I am grateful for the treatment process. I am grateful for the answers to every question I had. Thank you for the exceptional atmosphere during this difficult time and for trying to understand my language (not entirely pure English). I was terrified from the first day of my diagnosis, but your approach to the patient and your guarantee of health made me trust you and face one of the most difficult moments in the last months of my life. Dziękuję 🤗

Dr Nicolo Battisti

Oncologist

Dr Battisti was excellent. He had taken the time to understand my clinical situation before our consultation. He was very professional and knowledgeable and he put me at ease during our discussion. He answered my questions and spent time listening to my concerns . I felt I was in safe hands . He explained my management plan thoroughly and I received his comprehensive consultation summery shortly afterwards. Dr Battisti consulted with colleagues quickly and updated me the next day . I would be happy to see Dr Battisti again and would recommend him to family or friends .

Mr James Smith

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I have had two hip replacements 8 weeks apart. Whilst the recovery requires a lot of patience Mr Smith has done an excellent job with the surgery. I have had no issues with the replacements and the scars healed very fast. Mr Smith gave me confidence that doing both was possible and I was up to the task. The whole surgery team were excellent. I was apprehensive about the spinal anaesthetic but the anaesthetist did a great job and the nursing care was excellent. Overall extremely happy although still a lot of rehab to do

Professor Francisco Leyva-Leon

Cardiologist

Listening, compassion, understanding and the ability to communicate in a clear and considerate manner are qualities most patients look for from a medical professional, together with a desire to seek the route cause of a problem and not simply seek to mitigate the symptoms. I was so pleased that Professor Francisco Leyva-Leon demonstrated all of these qualities and having discovered the root cause of my issues, provided the solution. I am very grateful to him and would not hesitate to recommend him

Professor Bloomfield is an exceptional psychiatrist. He balances professional expertise with a very kind, human touch. I never feel rushed during our appointments; he is patient with my questions and always provides well-rounded, informative feedback. He doesn't just provide a service; he provides a thoughtful partnership in mental health. I feel much more confident in my journey thanks to his guidance.

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.

Harley Street Hearing

Audiology, Ear Care

My second visit to the Harley Street Hearing clinic and I found everything just as professional as the first time. I have worn Lyric aids for many years but struggled to get them locally after my audiologist decided that it wasn't cost effective for them to offer the service. The service from Lerissa was top class - she told me so much more about the product than I've heard elsewhere.

Dr Simon Broughton

Paediatrician

Our son had multiple issues that had previously been dismissed by our NHS GP. Dr Broughton took the time to listen carefully and addressed each concern thoroughly, one by one. He was very understanding, patient, and reassuring, and also offered appropriate follow-up. We felt truly listened to and supported. I could not recommend him more highly.

Nuffield Health North Staffordshire Hospital
