Professor Greg Shaw

Urologist

i underwent a radical prostatectomy for a grade 2 c prostate carcinoma. using the da Vinci robotic system by Professor Greg Shaw. I found him to be easy to talk to and he explained my surgical and non surgical options at our first appointment. He gave me confidence and also explained the possible complications from surgery. I opted for the Robotic surgery which was expertly performed. The first post operative day I was sleepy but absolutely without discomfort. I live some distance from London and as a result I was given the option of a two night stay. The second day i did have a little discomfort to my upper back but it was easily resolved with paracetamol. I was warned by Prof Shaw that this would happen and it was due to the gas that was infused into the abdomen to help with visualisation of the prostate and to to reduce the bleeding. The mild discomfort was gone by day 4 and I was fully mobile by day 2. It is early days and the urinary catheter was removed just under a week ago and although I can feel he need to pass urine at night so I remain mostly dry the sensation has only returned a little during the day but every day is better than the previous one. In short the surgery for me was easy and the post operative course has been good. The urinary problems I was warned about and I feel sure it will be only a week further before I am dry. i would recommend Prof Shaw to you without hesitation he is a most pleasant gentleman and I have confidence in him both as a communicator and as a surgeon.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Honestly blown away by this service I’m nearly 80 now, and I can’t even count how many doctor visits I’ve had in my life, but MyDoctor by Northern Health honestly left me a bit blown away. I wasn’t expecting much — you get used to being rushed through at my age — but I came off the call feeling like someone had finally taken the time to actually explain my own health to me. It felt different from the moment it started. No rushing, no talking over me, no making me feel like I was being dramatic. Just calm, proper care. I felt listened to in a way I haven’t in years. I actually felt like… well, like a person again, not someone they’re trying to hurry out the door. For the first time I understand what’s been setting things off, and what I need to do next time before it all gets too much. That alone is worth gold to me. I’ve been muddling along for years without this clarity. I’m honestly amazed. At my age you don’t expect to be surprised by much anymore, but this really did it. I’ll absolutely be using MyDoctor again — I wish I’d found it sooner.

GenesisCare Birmingham

Oncology

Upon arriving at Genesis care I was impressed by its warm, friendly and immaculate environment. The little touches like a jigsaw for patients to work on and the endless offers of coffee and biscuits were appreciated. The Staff and radiographers were incredibly professional and so very pleasant. They quickly put my mind at rest. They were really focused on making sure I was ok during the whole treatment journey. While undergoing treatment I got to meet a Penny Brohn counsellor which was very much appreciated as cancer and its treatment can be a very challenging time. Last but not least the addition of a fleet of drivers that took me to every appointment, waited for me, and drove me home was a real comfort. The drivers, like all the staff, were so friendly and chatted to me in a way that relaxed me and helped me feel calmer upon arrival. Cancer is a tough journey but everyone at Genesis Care made it much easier in so many ways. I cannot recommend the entire team, that make it work flawlessly, highly enough.

GenesisCare Cambridge

Oncology

I feel very fortunate to have had my chemotherapy and radiotherapy at GenesisCare Cambridge. The standard of care is excellent and everyone at the clinic is friendly and welcoming. While spotlessly clean with fantastic facilities the centre doesn't feel overly clinical. I really like the holistic approach to treatment at GenesisCare and particularly benefited from the exercise medicine clinic which took me from gym phobic to regular gym goer with huge benefits for my physical and emotional wellbeing. GenesisCare go above and beyond to make treatment less arduous, from providing really comprehensive support to prevent or mitigate unpleasant side effects to offering a complimentary taxi service to and from radiotherapy sessions. Another plus of GenesisCare is that the consultations are never rushed - there is always time for questions and I particularly appreciated my consultant taking time to talk me through the treatment options and providing really clear answers to all my questions.

Dr Mamta Joshi

Diabetes & Endocrinology Specialist

My mum recently saw Dr Mumta Joshi for hypertension, and the experience was exceptional. Dr Joshi spent well beyond the allotted time with her, never once making the consultation feel rushed. Instead, she took real care to put my mum at ease, calm her nerves and understand the full picture behind her symptoms. What stood out most was how thorough and thoughtful she was. She reviewed all of my mum’s medical records systematically and asked questions that showed she was genuinely trying to get to the root cause of the hypertension, not just treat the numbers. Her explanations were clear, her suggestions were practical and positive, and she made sure my mum felt heard throughout. It’s rare to come away from a medical appointment feeling this confident and reassured, but that’s exactly what Dr Joshi achieved. We are incredibly grateful for her time, her empathy and her expertise. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a consultant who truly cares.

Elanic

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Dermatology, + 7 more

Recent visit was ok. My Nurses could have been better organised. On arrival no one was there to greet me despite being told to be there at 7.30 am I wasn’t told no one could come up and wait with you or be present after my procedure. The room for pre theatre and after theatre was far too small for 3 beds to be in it. It was also flat too hot in the room making me feel worse.. Unprepared for someone feeling unwell after the procedure. I did feel very rushed after my procedure despite feeling unwell! The doctor on shift however was very good. Nurses rushing to finish their shift in theatre to hand me over made me feel uneasy. Nurse looking after me rushing me out the door as it was past 8pm. I was worried about leaving as still felt pretty unwel. Overall was not tailored to my needs Surgeon & anaesthetist very good can’t fault them at all. Made me feel very at ease before my procedure.

HMT St Hugh's Hospital

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Ear Nose & Throat Surgery (ENT/Otolaryngology), + 8 more

It's two days since I had major surgery at St Hugh's hospital in Cleethorpes. I still find my eyes tearing up with gratitude at how well they have cared for me. Their consultants are of the highest calibre. And all the staff on the wards, from nurses through to the kitchen, are a joy to witness. Their happiness at work permeates through every nook and cranny. They have looked after not just my body, but my emotions and my dignity. Major surgery is always stressful, but the aftercare I had at St Hugh's has given me a headstart in my recovery. All credit too, to the wise and judicious management in the background. Only good managers could maintain a team who are so united and happy in their jobs. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Fitzrovia Hospital

Cardiology, Gastroenterology, + 4 more

I recently visited Fitzrovia Hospital and had an excellent experience from start to finish. The facility is clean, well organised, and welcoming, but what truly stood out was the care of all staff, friendly, supportive and specifically the exceptional care provided by Kate. Kate was warm attentive, and incredibly professional throughout my visits. She took time to care for me and explain all things clearly, was patient and I felt hugely comfortable and supported. Her kindness and calm approach made a huge difference, and I genuinely felt in safe hands. A professional surgical process and experience with timely post op follow up with due care and attention by each and every staff member. Highly recommend.

Mr Sreekumar Sundara Rajan

General Surgeon

I recently had a breast enlargement procedure, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the very first consultation, Mr Sreekumar Sundara Rajan made me feel comfortable, informed, and supported. listened carefully to what I wanted and guided me through every step with kindness and professionalism. The procedure itself went smoothly, and the aftercare has been exceptional. The staff checked in regularly, answered all my questions, and made sure I felt confident throughout the healing process. My results look amazing, and I feel more confident than ever. I highly recommend Mr Rajan to anyone considering the procedure. Truly a wonderful experience from start to finish! Thank you

He really goes in depth and explains everything, so that we understand and every question gets answered. I am very pleased with the service I’ve received and grateful for all his help. I highly recommend Dr Francesco Lo Monaco to everyone looking for an experienced, professional Cardiologist!

Recovery was very good , if it wasn’t for the obvious scaring i felt absolutely fine , no pain at all .. Thank you all again , you made my fear of surgery a pleasant experience that I didn’t need to worry myself over .

Mr Deep J Malde

General Surgeon

I was recently diagnosed with a low grade neuroendocrine tumour and underwent two radiofrequency ablation procedures performed by Mr Malde. Throughout my treatment he was clear, professional, and highly reassuring. His expertise and calm approach made a difficult situation much easier to manage. I am very grateful for the excellent care he provided.

Mr Dinesh Alexander

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I was very impressed with Mr Alexander & Beardwood Hospital. He was very professional- certainly knows his stuff- very experienced & a lovely bedside manner. Post op recovery was excellent & I’m totally pain free. I was dancing at the weekend- only 6 weeks post op. It’s like a miracle. I would definitely recommend him for a total hip replacement.

Dr. Srinivasagam Muthumeenal

Paediatrician

Dr Meena is always polite and professional. My 4 year old daughter was worried and refusing testing that was required and Dr Meena put her at ease and calmed her down so she was able to go through with it. She had my daughter laughing through a moment she was scared off and I am so thankful for this.

Mr Jonathan Pollock

Plastic Surgeon

Mr Pollock’s professional knowledge and bedside manner are what really stand out. He put me at ease throughout the process and made a stressful time somewhat more bearable. He is honest with his assessments and prognosis and I had every faith in what he was telling me.
