᠎ Rosie Matharu

Nutritionist

When I first came to Rosie, I had been struggling with gut and digestion issues for quite some time. I was also trying very hard to “do everything right” — following many well-known, trendy gut-health recommendations that are widely considered healthy. To my surprise, through working together I learned that much of what I had been doing was actually making my situation worse rather than better. This required a complete rethink — almost a 180-degree shift in how I was eating and supporting my body. What stood out immediately was Rosie’s ability to look beyond generic advice and understand what was actually happening in my system. I’m someone who likes to understand things deeply, and I always felt that she fully understood my questions and was able to take the conversation much further than symptom management. Our work quickly moved beyond digestion alone into a much deeper understanding of how my body functions as a whole — including physiology, stress responses, and longer-term regulation. Over time, this has evolved into a health optimisation process, with the aim of creating sustainable, lifelong adjustments rather than short-term fixes. Rosie is exceptionally thorough, calm, and attentive. She takes time to listen, doesn’t rush, and is thoughtful and measured in her recommendations. At the same time, her knowledge is broad and deeply grounded, which gave me a strong sense of trust from the very first session. I remember leaving that first appointment feeling, for the first time, that my health issues were genuinely workable and that I was in capable, supportive hands. I would wholeheartedly recommend Rosie to anyone looking for a practitioner who combines deep knowledge with care, precision, and a truly individual approach — especially if you want to understand your body properly and work towards long-term health rather than quick solutions.

Eastwood Community Endoscopy Centre LTD

Gastroenterology, General Surgery

This was my first colonoscopy procedure so I didn’t know what to expect and was quite anxious. Looking at the patient reviews on this site beforehand really helped me so I wanted to add my own comments here as well. The 2 day preparation for my late afternoon procedure (fasting and drinking the cleansing medication) was actually the worst part, however I followed the instructions and kept myself very hydrated throughout, that along with a couple of boiled sweets in the last couple of hours to stop the hunger pangs really helped. The clinic staff were all really friendly and helpful from the moment I arrived and talked me through the process throughout so I knew what to expect. I had sedation for the procedure itself which was completely painless, and I got the results quickly. At all times my wellbeing was prioritised by the staff, with 1 to 1 nursing and a very welcome drink and biscuit afterwards. Special thanks from me to Roberta and Dr Khan, and my aftercare nurse whose name I forgot (sorry!)

Midland Eye

Ophthalmology

The cataract in my right eye, which had been quite noticeable, was operated on in the second week of November this year. The less advanced cataract in the left eye was dealt with a fortnight later. My second eye is still settling in, but my surgeon, Mr Park, appears to have produced an excellent overall outcome for me. Having discussed the options with Mr Park, I chose to have a lens in my right (dominant) eye which enables me to see at distance, whilst for the left, I have one which is more suited to closer work. I may need reading glasses for really close work, but using my computer screen presents no problem. Asking questions was encouraged and all queries were dealt with clearly. The staff, and particularly the opthalmic technicians, obviously knew what they needed to do in support of the surgical procedures and all was handled very efficiently. Special thanks to Nurse Debbie who was looking after me, a somewhat anxious patient, before and after the two operations.

GenesisCare Oxford

Oncology

Professor Plaha is an incredibly rare human being. Within 24 hours of my MRI scan being sent to him, he took responsibility for my care. The subsequent week, he met with me and guided me through my condition with a clear prognosis and a plan for treatment. He referred me onwards to other neurologists who were able to adapt my medication accordingly to ensure pre-operative stability. Along with his expert team, he operated to resect my tumour in a highly sensitive location with precision and success. He followed up after surgery with histology results and I have recently met with him at GenesisCare in Oxford, which promptly took place after my 3 month post operative MRI scan. In clinic, and as always - he exuded true warmth, humility, professionalism and integrity. He is a true specialist in his field and I am gracious to be under his care. Where anyone is looking for a true expert in his field in difficult and challenging circumstances, you must go no further.

Cleveland Clinic Portland Place Outpatient Centre

Gastroenterology, Anaesthetics, + 10 more

I met with my surgeon online. The online facility works extremely well. I noticed that I was sent two new reminders of the meeting on the day with direct links. I like this new approach very much. As always, the surgeon, Prof J Murphy, was prompt and conducted the consultancy with detailed feedback, including the sharing onscreen of a third party report which was extremely helpful and informative. Prof J Murphy has an extremely open, honest and clear approach to discussing aspects of the individual patient’s health that are not easy to discuss. This allows the patient to feel their case is being carefully monitored, considered and options, going forward are shared and discussed with them. This surgeon engenders great trust in his review of information, liaison with others specialists, communication, surgical treatment and overall management of the individual patient’s case.

Cooden Medical Group

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Dermatology, + 4 more

This was a follow-up appointment. It should have been after 2 weeks but because the practitioner works very part-time this wasn’t possible. She then said I should have been in sooner! Treatment not as successful as with past practitioners before we moved to this area (I had brought records to first appointment but she had suggested a different approach). Further treatment offered on the day of the follow-up but I felt the practitioner was getting very defensive and I was losing confidence, so I declined. When I was waiting to go in someone else was trying to book a follow-up appointment. When she couldn’t get one desk staff said it probably didn’t matter as most people don’t need it! This clinic suits me location wise but unfortunately this wasn’t a great experience so I won’t go back.

OCL Vision London

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Ophthalmology

I had LASIK surgery with Allon Barsam yesterday, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. My vision feels unbelievably clear, almost like seeing through the eyes of a superhero. Allon guided me through every step of the procedure as it was happening, which made the entire experience feel calm, safe, and reassuring. The surgery was genuinely painless; there was one brief moment of discomfort that lasted no more than 10 seconds, and he calmly counted down the seconds so I knew exactly what to expect. My eyes stung a little afterwards, but after a short nap I woke up feeling completely fine. If you’re considering laser eye surgery, I can’t recommend it highly enough. It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Thank you so much to Allon and the team at OCL.

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.

Nuffield Health Newcastle

Plastic Surgery, General Surgery, + 6 more

I had a really positive experience staying at Nuffield Hospital. From admission to discharge, the staff were friendly, welcoming and kind. Everyone I interacted with was attentive, reassuring and helpful, which made a big difference during surgery and early recovery. Even when things were not perfect, such as not having a post-surgery bra in my exact size and sending me home in one that was a bit too big in the cups, the care and effort from the team never wavered. They handled everything with warmth, professionalism and good humour! Overall, I felt well looked after, respected and supported and I am very grateful to the staff who made what could have been a stressful experience feel calm and manageable. 💗

Mr Prashant Purohit

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I have seen Dr Prashant for egg retrieval and investigatory tests and I couldn’t recommend him more highly. He is wonderfully black and white in the best possible sense — extremely transparent, clear and straightforward, which makes the whole process feel far less overwhelming. He is very easy to talk to, listens carefully, and explains everything in a way that is simple and easy to understand, so you always know what’s going on and what you need to do next. I’ve always felt that I’ve been given the best possible advice, with treatment options explained clearly and thoughtfully. He is efficient, kind, and reassuring and I’ve felt genuinely supported and well cared for throughout.

KIMS Hospital

Cardiology, Breast Surgery, + 26 more

The staff at KIMS Hospital are truly amazing and incredibly friendly. Their professionalism and genuine compassion were unmatched by any experience I’ve had in NHS care. I felt supported, reassured, and well looked after from start to finish. Several people stood out during my stay: Amy in recovery, David, who prepared me for the epidural, Becky, my physio, and Mark, who handled my medication. My two nurses who cared for me around the clock were also outstanding — attentive, kind, and consistently reassuring. I honestly can’t fault any part of the care I received. Thank you to the entire team for making a daunting experience so much easier.

Miss Tania Adib

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

This was my 2nd appointment as I started HRT 3 months ago. So far everything is going really well and I absolutely love having Dr Adib as my doctor during this stage of my life. She is extremely supportive and understands completely what this journey is all about - which is refreshing and comforting. We have decided to increase my doses a little bit to see how that goes, but I can definitely notice an improvement in my moods and energy levels since starting treatment. The face cream that was prescribed for me has made a difference too and I’ve received quite a few compliments on how much younger I look!

London Pregnancy Clinic

Clinical Genetics, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, + 2 more

I went at 11 weeks for a scan and for a NIPT test. The booking process was excellent, the members on the phone were so helpful and considerate. My appointment with Dr Desi was on time and extremely thorough. She was so compassionate, caring and kind throughout the appointment, explaining everything each step of the way and being extremely thorough through the scan and explaining our NIPT options. It’s the best consulting experience I’ve had throughout my pregnancy. Reception staff were extremely helpful too. I would really recommend LPC to any expecting couples. An excellent experience end-to-end

Mr Ed Casswell

Ophthalmologist

Having been terrified to get my cataract done, I did a lot of research and found Ed Casswell in Nuffield in Brighton . From our first meeting I liked Ed, he’s professional, friendly and very experienced! As I hate anything to do with eyes I asked for deep sedation and he was fine for me to have this, which was marvellous as I was completely knocked out during the whole process . Recovery was good and I could see out of my new lens straight after the op . Recovery was smooth and no pain at all . I will need the other eye doing sometime in the future and I will definitely be using Ed .

North Wales Eye Specialist Centre

Ophthalmology

I had an excellent experience under the care of Consultant Divya Mathews. She performed cataract surgery on both of my eyes with outstanding skill and precision. From the first consultation through to post-operative care, she was calm, reassuring, and very clear in her explanations, which gave me complete confidence and peace of mind. The results have been excellent, and my vision has improved significantly beyond my expectations. I am truly grateful for her expertise, professionalism, and compassionate approach, and I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking exceptional eye care.
