Dr Arif Aslam

Dermatologist

When my BCC diagnosis was confirmed, it was very scary and I wondered how things would progress and what outcome could be achieved. The first stage was to research the options. The main one being to identify the best procedure and the best surgeon. MOHS surgery came out as the best option for success, in terms of reoccurrence and the overall cosmetic appearance. Dr Aslam topped the list to perform this surgery. The initial consultation with Dr Aslam proved I had made the right choice. From the very start I felt confident and reassured. On the day of the surgery I was naturally very nervous. However, Dr Aslam and his excellent team helped considerably to reduce any tension. The whole team, Lisa, Gina and Sheila made conversation throughout the surgery and as such it was possible to have a couple of laughs. Don’t be afraid about being awake. The results? Well I could not be more pleased. The outcome has exceeded my expectations and to say I am pleased is an understatement. I am genuinely thrilled. My second “follow up” appointment was today (3 weeks after surgery) and Dr Aslam is equally thrilled. I can’t finish this review without mentioning Claire, the very efficient and helpful secretary to Dr Aslam. Please be in no doubt that choosing Dr Aslam and his team will, in my opinion be the best choice you can make. Terese

Fitzrovia Suite

Obstetrics & Gynaecology

My experience at the Fitzrovia private maternity suite at UCLH was exceptional from start to finish. The room's were spotlessly clean, comfortable, and calm - exactly what you hope for during such an important emotional time. The food was genuinely excellent, with a great variety of choices, which made a real difference during recovery and long days on the ward. Most importantly, the staff were absolutely amazing. From the midwives and healthcare assistance to the catering team, every single person was kind, caring and professional. The midwives were extremely knowledgeable and always on hand to support and reassure, no matter the time of day. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble. What truly stood out was the continuity of care even after discharge. The midwives remained available to support me with breastfeeding and post cesarean aftercare, which was invaluable and made me feel supported well beyond my stay. I cannot fault the Fitzrovia private maternity suite at UCLH. The standard of care, compassion, and attention to detail where outstanding, and I would highly recommend it to anyone considering private maternity to care.

Skylight Psychiatry

Psychiatry

I spent hour and a quarter talking in detail about my symptoms as an adult and what I could remember from my childhood I was then told that whilst I reached the threshold for adult ADHD, I did not reach the threshold for childhood ADHD. I was told I did not have ADHD whilst showing some symptoms. We discussed for a further ten minutes about the fact that I had some difficulty understanding why I needed to reach the threshold for a neurodivergent condition as a child in order to receive some help as an adult with threshold symptoms. I accepted the findings with some disappointment that I was not going to get help but at least it was suggested that I return to my GP for a different referral

Cromwell Hospital

Paediatrics, Cardiology, + 17 more

My most recent visit was for an MRI scan which occurred in in the mobile unit. My oncologist requested a full spinal scan as well as a head and neck scan. The radiographer told me that this wasn’t possible then proceeded to ask me to choose one or the other. I wasn’t qualified to make this decision as both were equally important. There was insufficient information given as to the reason for not being able to have the scans I was booked in for, which really wasn’t good enough. Having waited quite a few weeks for this appointment I am annoyed that I will have to return next week to have the spinal scan. I expect better.

The Harborne Hospital, part of HCA Healthcare UK

Cardiology, Gastroenterology, + 10 more

The imaging team — particularly R. Wilson and L. Kuriakose — were outstanding. Their efficiency, professionalism, and the way they worked with me throughout the treatment were superb. In contrast, communication from the reception team was limited. There was little information provided regarding waiting times or updates, and my next of kin were not kept informed about what was happening or how long the process might take. This created unnecessary uncertainty during an already stressful time. Parking was also extremely challenging, to the point where travelling by train would likely have been easier.

Moorfields Private Eye Hospital

Ophthalmology

The staff seemed very friendly and efficient in what seemed to be quite a busy little private out patient's department. I had to have quite a few test's and checks but didn't have to wait long in-between different department's. When I got to see the consultant he was very professional and explained to me exactly what my condition was, how it was affecting my vision . He then explained how he proposed to try to correct the problem, the likely time scale for the procedure, and the cost. I also felt that he was very clear to manage my expectations when the procedure does go ahead.

Vermilion - The Smile Experts Edinburgh

Dental Care, Dentistry

My son had a surgical extraction and the procedure was very calm and relaxed for him. I was able to be there too, so I watched the whole procedure and was very impressed at how clean the procedure was, resulting in a positive experience and successful extraction, ahead of upcoming orthodontic work. Waiting times weren't too long, although for private treatment we had hoped to be seen a little sooner than we were. The practice staff were friendly and very welcoming and high standards were evident throughout, in terms of hygiene and care. My son has no pain and is recovering well.

Dr Divyesh Sharma

Cardiologist

I have been under the care of Dr. Sharma for several months and in that time I have undergone a number of procedures. I have been greatly impressed by Dr Sharma’s attention and helpful advice. He instilled confidence in me enabling me to feel reassured about the way forward. I could not have been more impressed. He will be looking after my heart health in the future explaining in detail what options are ‘on the table’ Dr. Sharma takes time to listen and offer sound advice. I could not praise him highly enough. He certainly upholds the values and principles of the health service.

Mr Vikesh Patel

Ophthalmologist

Mr. Patel carried out my upper Blepharoplasty. I couldn’t happier with both the experience and results. From the very first consultation he was completely honest, professional and incredibly calming, which put me at ease. He took time to explain everything clearly, answered all my questions and made sure I felt fully informed and confident at every stage. His manner is kind and reassuring and his skill and attention to detail are evident in the outcome. I am very grateful for his care and expertise and would recommend him to anyone considering this procedure.

Quality Dental : Horsham

Dentistry

I’ve been going to this practice for many years and sadly the staff turnover, both dentists, hygienists and reception staff has been high. Today I saw a hygienist for the second time, who remembered my last visit and what was discussed which was really nice. Silly I know, but I have not felt like I have had my “own” dentist/hygienist here ever. The building is under renovation and seems to have been for a long time. So the building looks unfinished but not unclean. Hopefully at my next visit in 6 months time it will be finished.

Mr Darmarajah Veeramootoo

General Surgeon

My recent Hellers Myotomy was carried out by Dr Veeramootoo. He was very informative about the procedure and explained everything that would happen clearly, setting my expectations for recovery. Every time I’ve seen Dr V he has been kind and happy to see me, he is a very approachable person and has answered any questions I’ve had throughout the process. My surgery went well and recovery has been as smooth as possible. Thanks to him and the care team at Parkside during this time. I would highly recommend Dr V.

AURA Centre of Dental Excellence & Facial Aesthetics

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Dental Care, + 1 more

I recently visited AURA for a routine examination and dental hygiene appointment. The team conveniently scheduled both so I could have everything done in a single visit. Dental hygienist Marta provided a thorough yet gentle clean and polish, along with helpful advice on maintaining good tooth and gum health. Dr Nadine Skipp is extremely knowledgeable and skilled, but also very kind, and took the time to explain everything clearly. Everyone at AURA was friendly, professional, and welcoming.

Mr Dominic Coull

General Surgeon

Ever since I have known Mr Coull and have been under his care, the treatment and communication I have had has been first class. I have never not had a response to my queries and his manner and patience has been exemplary. Every step of the treatment or consultation has been made crystal clear before the appointment. I have recommended him to several friends who have all had the same experience under his diligent care. I have felt very fortunate to be looked after by Mr Coull

Dr. Ricky Shamji

Sport & Exercise Medicine Doctor

I came to Dr Ricky with tibial pain, Dr Ricky took the time to understand my pains and the symptoms/issues I have struggled with along with what activity may be symptomatic. Dr Ricky Shamji referred me to an MRI scan and explained the results thoroughly to my understanding. From here we worked through a plan to recovery and returning to health. Throughout, Ricky has been personable, understanding, helpful and confiding. Thanks again for your support

Mr Kenan Dehne

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Excellent visit everything was explained clearly- Mr Dehne was happy to talk through my treatment I was very grateful for the care and attention that he gave me during and after my hip operation. I travelled quite a long way to Birmingham to have my operation and would just say that being discharged on the following day as the operation was slightly uncomfortable due to the long distance from the hospital.

Mr Amgad Nakhla

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Having found out that I needed a new right hip joint ,which was a bit of a shock ,I can only say that the treatment I received from Mr Nakhla was first class from start to finish. I couldn't have been more pleased with all from the first consultation, Talking through what would be happening ,the choices I could make ,the surgery itself ,aftercare was second to none . With the end result being brilliant
