Pain Management, Acupuncture, + 47 more

In August 2025, due to the long delays at Luton and Dunstable, they offered for me to be seen as an NHS patient at One Stop (OSD) Clinic at Hemel Hempstead, where I was seen by Dr Mittel. Following a consultation, he advised that I be referred back to L&D for a hysterectomy (he could not do overnight procedures at his clinic) and prescribed Ryeqo, a medication that suppresses ovarian function and includes HRT. However, I was not provided with a NHS prescription for Ryeqo, as Dr Mittel did not have the necessary NHS prescription pad and advised that it must come from an NHS consultant. I have since discovered that my GP is unable to prescribe Ryeqo and that this must indeed be handled by a hospital consultant. I am unable to afford this medication privately, as it costs approximately £100 per month. With no consultant to prescribe the medication on the NHS, I am therefore left without treatment and unclear as to whether I am even on the waiting list for a hysterectomy. To add to my distress, my interactions with Dr Mittel have been upsetting. During our initial consultation, when I asked about potential side effects of Ryeqo, he responded inappropriately by laughing and comparing the risks to getting on a bus or plane. He failed to explain that only a consultant could prescribe the medication on the NHS, and I had to research this information myself. He also failed to talk me through any of the potential side effects which again I have now researched myself. At a subsequent appointment for a hysteroscopy, when I attempted to raise my concerns about still not being able to get the NHS Ryeqo prescription (as advised by his secretary), he dismissed the issue, saying it was not the right time to discuss it. Instead, he began venting his frustrations about NHS inefficiencies and his personal issues with parking as a consultant. This unprofessional and inappropriate behaviour left me extremely upset and in tears just prior to undergoing the procedure. Although he later apologised, stating he was “stressed,” this is not the level of care I expect or deserve as a patient and I wonder if I was his private patient as opposed to an NHS patient his manner would have been the same.

Cathedral Eye Clinic

Ophthalmology, Optometry

I went to my consultation with some trepedation as I didnt know what to expect but I was quickly put at ease once the consultation began. I was impressed with the detailed checks and scans that were carried out and everything was clearly explained at each stage. I was quiete surprised to be told that I wasnt ready for treatment at this stage and that any improvement that they could make for my reading vision, could potentially, make my distance vision slighly worse than it is at the moment. i was really impressed at the honestly and professionalism of the Consultant who gave me his honest opinion and did not try and sell me a procedure that I didnt need. For me this is very comendable in this day and age, Perhaps in a number of years time my situation will have changed and I will not hesitate to return to Cathedral for further advive/ analysys.

Dr Murray can find all necessary info on Cleveland Clinic website https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/mast-cell-activation-syndrome He might learn that people with mast cell activation syndrome also have respiratory symptoms. I do not find my consultations helpful. To refer me to physiotherapist instead of asking me about my medical history or for letters from other specialists was the easiest thing to do. I would like you to review my consultation as of yesterday and to let me know whether clinical guidelines were followed. I also would like you to consider the letters from various consultants that I sent to Dr Murray secretary yesterday. In a meantime I will follow Dr Murray advice and will breath in and out, especially during the times of emergency.

The Medical - Cheltenham

Chiropractic

My last visit was with my Chiropractor at the end of a tri program. (Program included a Chiropractor and 2 Physiotherapists - Soft tissue and Exercise) Following my initial diagnosis, which was both thorough and explanatory, I always received a warm welcome at Reception which helps when you are feeling fragile. The program mixed between all three experts and I only ever had to wait a few minutes for my scheduled appointment. Each expert was friendly, professional and put me at ease straight away.

Mr Antony Wilkinson

Podiatrist

I had my pre-op appointment today and I cannot praise my surgeon enough. From the moment I walked in, I felt reassured and well looked after. Everything was explained to me clearly and in a way that made me feel comfortable and confident going into my surgery. My surgeon was kind, patient, and genuinely took the time to listen to my concerns and answer all of my questions. I left feeling much calmer and fully informed. I couldn’t ask for better care – I feel I’m in the best possible hands.

Deanbrook Practice

General Practice (GP)

I needed a doctor's statement that I was fit to undertake a sport while on holiday. Alas, my GP refused to offer such a service so I looked for a private GP and found the Deanbrook Practice at the Candover Clinic in Basingstoke willing to help. The doctor reviewed my background and then completed the form. I felt the support offered was thorough and friendly. While I had to pay for this service, I felt it rescued my holiday and so was therefore completely worthwhile.

Spire Dunedin Hospital

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Imaging (Scans), + 4 more

We would highly recommend Dr Gada. After many years of searching for answers we finally received a thorough and conclusive diagnosis alongside a comprehensive list of recommendations for support needed and suggested resources. Dr Gada had an amazing rapport with our teenage daughter. He was reassuring and positive throughout the consultation, and she came away feeling confident and empowered. Thank you Dr Gada for all of your help.

Mr Ijaz Ahmad

ENT Surgeon

Ruby as had a better experience than her last hospital admission. Thank you for talking to her directly it was appreciated and your prompt medical intervention as improved the quality of her daily living. You clearly listened to what I had to say about Ruby moving to Minehead and the need to have the operation sooner rather than later. She moves to Somerset on the 20th September 2025. Thank you from the Squire-Wood family

Dr Sunila Jog

Paediatrician

We saw Dr Jog with my younger daughter who has been suffering with joint pain. Dr Jog was thorough in her examination and came up with a plan for further testing. She is approachable and has a wonderful manner with the children. I trust that she works for the best interest of her patients. We have seen Dr Jog in the past and she has always been wonderful. Would always recommend her.

First time at the clinic and had a very positive experience. The practice is welcoming, clean and all about the client journey - entirely dedicated to you. My consultation felt meaningful and professional, and it was very helpful having the opportunity to actually engage in a proper conversation about my health care. Brilliant addition to the neighbouring medical services!

Newmedica Newcastle

First class experience. This was my second cataract operation and like the first all went well and to plan. Follow up call from the clinic the morning after to check for any issues. Apart from a slightly watery eye (which soon cleared up) there were none. All of the staff, from reception to assistants to surgeon were professional but at the same very caring.

Ms Arifa Siddika

General Surgeon

I had a pleasant experience with Ms. Siddika from the initial consulation up until the post procedure follow-up. I had a colonoscopy with banding of hemorrhoids and felt minimal discomfort with only paracetamol needed for pain control afterwards. She was always calm and reassuring and had a great outcome post procedure. Highly recommended!

Mr Jibu John Joseph

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Attended follow up appointment 6-weeks after hip replacement. From initial consultation with Mr Joseph to operation, initial recovery and physiotherapy Mr Joseph was highly professional explaining the procedure and outcomes clearly. I would definitely recommend anyone requiring hip replacement to ask for Mr Joseph.

Dr Sheetal Sirohi

Psychiatrist

She made me feel welcomed and through her bedside manner allowed me to be honest and share my thoughts and feelings without making me feel judged. Whenever she would need to explain her thinking or describe anything she always maintained good communication and spoke in a way that was clear and easy to understand.

Mr Ali Raza

Orthopaedic Surgeon

As always, Mr Raza listened attentively to my concerns and gave clear, easily understood explanations of the symptoms l have been experiencing. He updated me on my recent surgery and gave me a clear picture of what to expect as my recovery progresses. His gentle, calm approach instills complete confidence.
