Mr John Ferris

Ophthalmologist

Having suffered from very poor long vision I had laser surgery in both eyes about 18 years ago which for the first 7 or 8 years was exceptional and I achieved better than 20:20 vision. However, the myopia came back and while no where near as bad, it was annoying having to wear glasses or contact lenses again. Over the last couple of years I found that my near vision which was exceptional, became blurred when wearing contacts or glasses and I was on the brink of having to have various different pairs of glasses to cope with the changes. It was at this point that I started to investigate intraocular lens replacement. I researched this on and off for probably a year before I had a really good conversation with my optician and she gave me a recommendation of John. The recommendation was the missing piece for me and having read his reviews and the excellent information on his website, I knew this was something I wanted to pursue further. The initial chat with John was very informative and he kindly replied to my many questions giving full and clear answers. He was also very clear and honest from the onset of what the possible complications could be. For me this was the fact that my eyes were still myopic in shape and that I had previously had laser surgery. These areas were discussed further in our face to face meeting and having carring out a full examination, I booked surgery straight away. The wait for surgery was nerve racking and exciting in equal measures and I had chosen to get both eyes done at the same time. I also chose the Galaxy lenses as my goal was to be free of glasses and contact lenses. The procedure was carried out at Tetbury hospital which is a wonderful cottage hospital which has a very warm and welcome feeling. Alll the nurses and team there were incredibly supportive as was John who came over to say hello and administer the anesthetic drops about 30 mins before surgery. The surgery took about 45mins to an hour which included a short break inbetween eyes for all equipment to be changed. Initially you see a very bright light and feel some pressure, I had a mild bit of discomfort on one eye as we were coming to the end of the procedure but noting unpleasant. After having the first eye done, I was sat up and to be honest you see very little other than light, shadows and it looks like you have lots of water in your eye, that is the only way I can describe it. For a short time my vision was also tinted slightly orange which cleared quickly. By the time the other eye had been done, plastic goggles stuck to your face to protect the eyes, the first eye operated on was much clearer. There was no pain. The following morning it was a very bright and sunny day and there was some minor pain everytime my eyes had to adjust to light. I spent the next couple of days indoors, sometimes wearing some sun glasses which really helped. John's call at the end of the first day confirmed that everything was fine and apart from some gritty/itchy feeling, all the symptoms quickly subsided. Lots of drops supplied along with a handy reminder sheet really helped. At the four week checkin John informed me that the results were excellent and I have better than 20:20 vision for both close, medium and long distance. Some days things can be a bit blurry but this is apparently as the brain gets used to the lenses and this process can take up to 9 months. However, the results were amazing and I can't believe that this is my eyesight for the rest of my life. Lots of people have asked me what it was like, did I have my eye balls injected? Can I feel the lenses in my eyes? Did I see the knife as it cut my eye open? I can confirm that the process was a lot less terrifying than the nature of those questions and not as dramatic! I would recommend this procedure and especially John as a surgeon in a heart beat. It is life changing and brilliant to have John and his excellent team there to support and guide you through the process. I also have to recommend the fabulous service you also receive from his PA Carole-Anne, you are very well looked after.

Dr. Simon Au

Diabetes & Endocrinology Specialist

I feel compelled to share my exceptional experience with Dr. Simon Au regarding my weight loss journey with Mounjaro. After many, many years of struggling with stubborn weight and yo-yo dieting, consulting with Dr. Au was the turning point I had been desperately searching for. From the very first appointment, Dr. Au distinguished himself from any other practitioner I had seen. His approach is not just about prescribing medication; it's about building a comprehensive and sustainable health plan. What truly sets Dr. Au apart: 1. Meticulous and Knowledgeable Consultation: Dr. Au didn't just hand me a prescription. He conducted a thorough health assessment, taking the time to understand my complete medical history, my lifestyle, and my personal goals. His explanation of how Mounjaro works was clear, detailed, and devoid of confusing medical jargon. He patiently answered all of my questions about potential side effects, setting realistic expectations, and made me feel completely confident in the path forward. 2. A Holistic and Supportive Approach: Dr. Au emphasises that Mounjaro is a tool, not a magic solution. During our consultations, we discuss nutrition, the importance of protein intake, incorporating movement, and managing stress. He provides invaluable resources and practical tips that have helped me build healthier habits alongside the treatment. He genuinely cares about my overall well-being, not just the number on the scale. 3. Unwavering Support and Encouragement: The journey has its ups and downs, but Dr. Au has been a great source of support. His follow-up care is exceptional. He actively monitors my progress, celebrates my successes (both scale and non-scale victories!), and calmly helps me navigate any challenges. I never feel rushed during our appointments; I feel heard and supported as a partner in my own health. The Results: Under Dr. Au's expert guidance, my experience with Mounjaro has been nothing short of transformative. I have not only lost a significant amount of weight, but I've also gained a newfound energy, improved mental clarity, better sleep patterns and a positive relationship with food. This is more than weight loss; it's a restoration of my health and confidence. If you are considering Mounjaro or any medical weight management, I cannot recommend Dr. Simon Au highly enough. His expertise, compassionate care, and strategic approach create the perfect environment for lasting success. He is, without a doubt, a truly outstanding and pro-active physician.

Dr Shalini Chawla

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

Having met several obstetricians in our hunt for the right DR we immediately fell for and felt connect too Dr Shalini. She quickly put us at ease of our fears and understood what worried us in relation to the birthing process, reassuring us with comfort and competence. Dr Shalini did not let us down post our first meeting, always being available (at all hours) and showed unreserved dedication to making sure we were catered for in every way we needed, and that we were her priority. In the end the birth was not going as originally planned, Dr Shalini handled the situation calmly and kept us informed yet not scared. All was explained, we were involved the whole way, all the way through the eventual C-section, this was after Dr Shalini had gone over and beyond to try and keep our wishes of a natural birth. The C-section was unavoidable for both me and our baby, and was done so well that I was up and walking the same day and have not had any complications since. Everyone who has since seen my scar has paid it compliments (and I normally scar badly), and after 19 days the scar is a distant line. We are wanting to plan more babies and would not consider another but Dr Shalini to be with us all the way. She calmed me, looked after me and reassured me, never leaving me/us feeling alone. Through the whole birth Dr Shalini maintained eye contact and connection with me, I felt constantly looked after. I feel we have parted as more than friends. THANK YOU DR SHALINI

Dr. Ahmed Elgheriany

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

The service I received from Dr Elgheriany was personalised, tailored, kind, positive and an exemplar for how to treat IVF patients with chronic endometriosis. He is incredibly knowledgeable about endometriosis and adenomyosis and explained everything so clearly at every stage, always backed up by the latest research. His results speak for themselves - I had several rounds of IVF at a different provider but it wasn't until the first transfer I had with an embryo created at the Evewell that I succeeded in becoming pregnant. Dr Elgheriany also taught me more about endo in our initial twenty minute consultation than I'd ever been told in several years before that by multiple different healthcare professionals, and his advice helped me change my diet and pain management habits to such a degree that my symptoms are now minimal to non-existent for the first time since I was 11 years old. I've had two operations to help manage stage 4 endometriosis in the past, including the removal of both of my fallopian tubes, but nothing has helped as much as this.

᠎ Lee Culverhouse

Physiotherapist

I have been receiving treatment following ACL reconstruction (with LET and meniscus repair), and I am genuinely impressed with the level of care and professionalism I have experienced. Lee consistently explains each exercise clearly, checks my progress carefully, and adjusts my programme so that I always feel safe but challenged. His encouragement and attention to detail have made a noticeable difference in my recovery and my confidence. During one of my session, Lee even took me to the gym and guided me through three leg machines, explaining how this next stage will help me progress. His support and reassurance that I’ll start seeing big improvements mean a lot to me. I truly appreciate the time, patience, and expertise he brings to every session. I feel well supported and motivated, and I am very grateful for the high-quality care he provides. I am very much looking forward to continuing my recovery with Lee.

Mr John Terrace

General Surgeon

I have recently visited Mr Terrace following some symptoms in my lower abdomen that I needed to understand better and in particular to see whether they could be related to a hernia procedure that I had undertaken earlier in the year. Mr Terrace listened attentively to my prognosis which we then discussed before he physically examined me. Following the examination we discussed his findings which ruled out a re-occurrence of my hernia and also discussed what could be causing my symptoms and how this can be managed moving forward which gave me a great deal of reassurance. Mr Terrace was exactly as he had been on my previous meetings leaving me comfortable that I was receiving the best consultation available which was delivered in a professional and very friendly and engaging manner

Mr Aman Khanna

ENT Surgeon

Mr Aman Khanna was very professional in all aspects of my appointment. He listened to my concerns and acknowledged these. Following an examination of my nose Mr Khanna gave me some options which I could consider moving forward. I decided to have the septal button removed at this time due to my concerns. This was conducted by Mr Khanna in a professional manner in which he considered my discomfort at any time. Following further discussion we both agreed on an action plan moving forward and Mr Khanna prescribed some reflux medication and nose cream. I was very pleased with my appointment and with the professional way it was conducted by Mr Khanna, thank you.

It took a few days for my eyes to adjust as my prescription was very strong and complicated, (lazy left eye.) The hospital is modern ,spotless with excellent facilities and easy access plenty of parking and train. Special Thankyou to Nicola who coordinated everything from start to finish.

The McIndoe Centre

Plastic Surgery, Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, + 3 more

Couldn't fault any of the staff here, all very welcoming, comforting and professional, made me feel at ease at all times and nothing was too much trouble. I ended up with a few complications from my surgery due to my body not at all accepting the procedure and amount that had been done but the staff and my consultant Mr Harley were on top of it literally immediately. Due to not being a straight forward healer they insisted an open door policy at any time day or night if any concerns. The hospital is very very clean and all policies and procedures are followed to the tee. Honestly a brilliant experience all due to them!

The iGP - Private Doctors - Cardiff Gate

Acupuncture, Allergy Medicine, + 21 more

I was delighted by Cardiff Gate. I had a PSA blood panel. I would be HUGELY delighted if you would consider the following: Blood tests at Sancta in Swansea could gather blood work across greater Swansea Bay. As a suggestion to you, please consider offering that on ONE of your 2 visits per week to Sancta. say, offer morning bloods? Then charge clients a small extra fee to cover a courier to run them all back to Cardiff at midday. You don't really offer such a Bloods service ain Swansea at the moment and it would cover its costs and bring in regular business.

The London Dermatology Centre

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Dermatology

My wife and I have visited the clinic a few times during the last five years and are both very impressed. Dr Chopra is friendly, caring and very competent. He operates efficiently and is always on time. My skin lesions were examined and treated on the spot during the same session today. I received information about the nature and cause of my problem and was given instruction about how to look after the problem area until it is fully healed. I was charged as quoted when I booked the appointment.. Highly recommended service.

Bourn Hall Fertility Clinic, Cambridge

Fertility Medicine, Obstetrics & Gynaecology

The staff were so kind and helped me to relax when I went for egg collection. The Embryo transfer was a beautiful moment and they ensured it was marked with a photo of the embryo being transferred and a hand written card. Unfortunately, our first transfer was unsuccessful but I know we are in safe hands for our next steps. The admin team in particular have been amazing - responsive, sensitive and friendly. Thank you to all of the staff that quietly encourage hope in a scary time

Dr Robert Sword was very professional and throughout my treatment explained in detail what was happening and the options available for further treatment if required. He has a calm reassuring nature and is genuinely a very caring professional dentist whom I would whole heartedly recommend to anyone but in particular those of a nervous disposition.
