The Royal Marsden Private Care - Cavendish Square

Oncology

I have been under the care of Dr Alistair Ring since September 2024, and from my very first visit to The Royal Marsden, I knew I had made the right decision to begin chemotherapy there. During our initial consultation, Dr Ring immediately put me at ease, even though I had just received a difficult test result minutes before our meeting. He took the time to explain the Oncotype test for example and the treatment options available, making it clear that every step of my care would be centred around me. Dr Ring’s attention to detail and his encouragement to ask questions gave me great confidence and helped me feel empowered throughout my treatment. Following chemotherapy, I began medication that induced menopause, and thanks to his early guidance on potential side effects and how to manage them, I felt fully prepared. I also appreciate that he has been open to ongoing conversations about my treatment, including exploring HRT options, this openness means a great deal. The clinical staff at The Royal Marsden have been exceptional. They have consistently provided compassionate, professional care, and I genuinely look forward to seeing them at each follow-up. They remember small details and speak to me as a person, not just a patient, which makes every visit a positive experience. I cannot recommend Dr Ring and The Royal Marsden highly enough. I am deeply grateful for the outstanding care and support I have received and continue to receive from the entire team.

Mr Nev Davies

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Engagement with Debbie was great always very timely about providing appointment, arranging surgery, sending out letters etc (I see Debbie as being a key extension of the medical service that you provide) I found all of your consultations to be really thorough and well explained and not rushed. I always felt I had sufficient time for questions to be answered in a thorough way. Your letters also explained things in a thorough way that I could easily understand - thank you for that. A few small builds which hopefully will help you build on an excellent service that you currently provide: 1) at my first (and very thorough consultation) you did not have access to my MRI scan you only had access to the report. I question if you had viewed the scan, ahead of the surgery, would you then have had a better view of the issue - would the surgery have been necessary. Although I do appreciate sometimes the saying is treat the patient and not the scan. So I do accept I may be wrong? 2) a minor point your clinics ALWAYS run extremely late. I wonder if appointments should either be extended (as you provide a very thorugh service). Although I suspect the hospitals only allow you so many mins per patient? If that is the case could you consider seeing less patients. I (and I suspect others too) have a really busy job and I found this a little fustrating.

Mr Stelios Myriknas

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I had my TAC stitch placed by the wonderful Mr Stelios at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital in May 2021, following a self‑referral I made the previous December. From the very beginning, Mr Stelios was exceptional. He explained every aspect of the procedure, including all risks and next steps, with such clarity and compassion. During the surgery, he also removed some scarring from my uterus. What truly set him apart was how far he went beyond his formal responsibilities. He personally communicated with my IVF consultant at another hospital to discuss the potential risks of a twin pregnancy, ensuring that every decision was made with my safety in mind. Thanks to IVF, I became pregnant with my daughter in October 2022. Mr Stelios also fitted my occlusion stitch after my 12‑week scan and continued as my consultant throughout the pregnancy, right up to the successful delivery of my daughter in June 2026. He is an incredibly talented surgeon, a brilliant communicator, and genuinely an angel for anyone facing infertility challenges. If it weren’t for him, we would not have become parents.

Professor Matthew Winter

Oncologist

Professor Winter is amazing, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. I have been a patient of his for the past 10 months, and throughout this time he has been consistently caring, compassionate, kind, and honest. He always takes the time to explain my treatment options clearly, listens carefully, and answers all of my questions. I especially appreciate how knowledgeable he is and how he stays one step ahead with new and ongoing treatments, which allows me to focus on the here and now with confidence. He makes me feel safe, incredibly well supported, and truly cared for. Professor Winter is also surrounded by a wonderful team who are equally caring and supportive. Their collective care has made a significant difference to my mental attitude and overall well-being. I feel incredibly privileged to have met such wonderful people and to receive such exceptional care.

Bright Futures Health

Paediatrics

We first saw Dr Burmester when our son was dealing with a prolonged series of illnesses. She was extremely thorough with her diagnostics, explained everything to us very clearly, and guided his recovery in a way that made us feel calm, reassured, and well supported throughout a very stressful time. She was also incredibly generous with her time, answering multiple follow-up questions via email, which was immensely comforting for us as anxious parents. We have been seeing her for over six months now and I would highly recommend her — she is knowledgeable, caring, and someone we trust completely with our child’s care. I would also like to mention Sophie, the clinic manager, who is consistently helpful, professional, and responsive, making the overall experience at the clinic even better.

Cathedral Eye Clinic

Ophthalmology, Optometry

I had been considering eye surgery and attended Cathedral Eye Clinic to get a second opinion, having already spoken with a consultant in Dublin. Putting it simply, my experience in Belfast was far superior. The team at Cathedral ran a more comprehensive range of tests, assigned more time and personnel to my case, and were far better at talking through my options. In particular, I was very pleased that they were willing to give me their honest perspectives based on what they felt was best for me in the long run. Ultimately (based on their guidance), I decided not to go forward with any additional procedure at this time, but should I need treatment further down the line, I will not hesitate to go back to Belfast.

I had a day procedure at the Lindo Wing and the experience was excellent. The doctors and nurses were incredibly supportive, professional, and kind, which made a stressful situation much easier to cope with. The entire process, from arranging the initial consultation to scheduling the procedure, was handled very efficiently, with minimal waiting time. The medical staff took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I felt comfortable and well cared for throughout the day. The environment was calm, clean, and reassuring, and I truly felt that I was in very safe hands. I am very grateful for the care and compassion shown by the whole team.

Welcoming and helpful. Only one lift was working and the remaining one was noisy and slow but there was a notice advising of this. The coffee machine in wait area was out of order Reception staff were kind and helpful but sometimes difficult to understand accent. One set of chairs in a sub waiting area was under a shelf which meant I knocked my head. Appeared clean and efficient and was quiet on day of my visit. Preoperative bloods were done straight after consultation which is very good and in fact results appeared next day. That's good service. Overall allowing for things that happen a positive experience.

Lucio Health

Dr Hari and the team are truly amazing and we couldn’t imagine our journey without them at every step of the way. Their level of service is unparalleled, cancer throws you curve balls constantly and at random times and we’ve been desperate for expert advice and I always get a reply promptly and even out of hours. We wanted to add in re purposed meds to our chemo regime with someone guiding us for safety and not following random internet protocols. Highly recommending Dr Hari and Lucio Health doesn’t even get near to the feelings I have for this team. Simply outstanding.

Mr Damian Clark

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Damian has a very polite bedside manner that exudes confidence and experience without arrogance. The knee replacement operation was fully explained and in my case due to back problems other consultants were requested to give advice before the operation was agreed. The Hospital stay itself was very satisfactory, plenty of staff and care. Overall experience including inpatient experience 5*. Recovery is well advanced after just 6 weeks which I have attributed to Damian's skill and following physiotherapy exercises at least 3 times a day

I have been Sophie’s client for the last 6 months. In that time I have felt my relationship with food and my confidence in myself grow. She has helped me change the beliefs I hold about food and helped me on the road to recovery from anorexia. As an autistic person, I have struggled in the past with connecting with health professionals but Sophie adapts the sessions to meet my needs. She always sends notes after our sessions which is useful in making sure I keep track of what I should be doing.

Dorset Heart Clinic

Cardiology

I noticed the cleanliness of the office and waiting rooms. A very polite gentleman dealt with our car parking charge and wished us well - this was noted too. We were also kept informed of why the appointment was slightly late - this too was most appreciated since others in the waiting room were going ahead of us despite having later appointments. Simple things do make all the difference. Appointment itself was efficient as was the subsequent X-ray test downstairs. All in all - very pleased.

Mr Jonathan Broome

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I received excellent treatment and truly outstanding patient care throughout my procedure. From the initial consultation to aftercare, everything was explained clearly and I felt listened to, reassured, and treated with genuine professionalism and kindness. The procedure itself was handled with great skill, and I felt completely confident and safe at every stage. I am extremely grateful for the care I received and would not hesitate to recommend Mr Broome to others.

Mr Peter Cooke

Urologist

I’m extremely pleased with the highly professional level of care I received from Mr Cooke and his team. He is very friendly, extremely knowledgeable and very proactive in his level of service. He was able to efficiently treat me and provide me with future guidance to ensure my peace of mind and continue with good health. I’m very pleased that I found Mr Cooke and I absolutely highly recommend his services. Thank you once again and all the best to you for 2026.

Initially believed a guided steroid injection had been arranged through our GP. However despite trying to confirm this prior to visit this transpired not to be the case and was told another appointment would need to be booked for a later date. Fortunately Natalie, senior radiologist, was kindly able to arrange a guided steroid injection for that afternoon for which I am very grateful for as it is one hour twenty minutes round trip for us
