Kingsbridge Private Hospital Belfast

Anaesthetics, Cardiothoracic Surgery, + 37 more

The admissions brochure fails to state that family members are not allowed to stay with patients during the pre-operative wait. This is a significant omission, as it creates avoidable anxiety for patients who are already nervous about their procedure and are only informed of this restriction upon arrival. The pre-op nurses showed poor bedside manner when I asked about this. Instead of offering reassurance, they quoted “hospital policy” and then gave reasons that felt dismissive and inaccurate — for example, claiming that “too many people come in and out of rooms,” when in reality only one nurse completed paperwork, followed later by the surgeon and anaesthetist. I was also told I would be going to theatre “shortly,” even though I knew (correctly) that I would be waiting another 1.5 hours. My family member could easily have stayed with me during that entire period, as is standard in the Ulster Independent Clinic and in my previous NHS experiences. The lack of engagement from the pre-op nurse beyond basic paperwork questions made the situation feel even more uncomfortable. The pods themselves felt more like small, bare cells than a calming space prior to surgery — no TV, no artwork, just two chairs and a table. It was far from a soothing environment. In contrast, the theatre staff and post-op nurses were outstanding. They were friendly, proactive, and reassuring, and they made up for the negative pre-operative experience. One final issue: the staff arranging my discharge medication did not check my notes and prescribed a medication I am unable to take. Because the pharmacy had already closed, the only solution was to remove it from the prescription entirely.

London Gynaecology - Harley Street

Obstetrics & Gynaecology

I recently visited the London Gynaecology Centre for an appointment with Ms. Mishra, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the care I received. From the moment I arrived, I felt completely at ease. Ms. Mishra was incredibly thorough, taking the time to explain everything clearly and answer all of my questions without ever making me feel rushed. What stood out most was her kindness—she approached every part of the consultation with genuine compassion and professionalism. It’s rare to find a clinician who is both highly knowledgeable and truly empathetic, but Ms. Mishra embodies both. I left feeling reassured as I could be-in my situation, informed, and very well looked after. I would highly recommend Ms. Mishra and the London Gynaecology Centre to anyone seeking exceptional care.

I’m incredibly grateful for the outstanding care I received from Mr Panose. From our very first meeting, he demonstrated exceptional expertise, clarity, and compassion. Every step of the process—from pre-op preparation to post-op recovery—was handled with precision and genuine concern for my wellbeing. His ability to explain complex procedures in a way that felt reassuring and empowering made a real difference. I felt listened to, respected, and supported throughout. Thanks to his skill and guidance, my recovery has been smooth and my mobility has improved beyond expectations.

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.

He took the time to explain everything clearly, which gave me great confidence throughout the process. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Guttman. My sincere thanks to him, and I wish him all the very best!

Professor David Warwick

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I felt very comfortable and confident that I was in very good hands with Professor Warwick, as soon as I walked into his surgery. He explained in great detail the results of my recent x-ray, and suggested a range of options going forward, one of which was an immediate injection, which I decided to take up there and then. Again, the effects of this were explained fully, and I left feeling extremely pleased with my consultation.

Mr Achal Khanna

Dr Khanna has been outstanding. He listened carefully, explained everything clearly and made me feel completely reassured throughout the appointment and follow up appointments. His approach is calm, knowledgeable and genuinely caring.

Private care at the Western Eye Hospital

Ophthalmology

For private treatment it was very disappointing. The overall building and facilities were shabby and rundown. There was no reception or anyone to direct me as where to go. If your Trust is to offer private treatment, it has to be more professional and provide better quality facilities otherwise it is taking money under false pretences. It is not want private treatment should be.

One Ashford Hospital

Recent visit fur a knee replacement event. Theatre staff were brilliant keeping me informed of everything they were doing. Recovery nurses also very helpful and cheery. Ward staff were helpful. More information at discharge would be good. Details of medication were well explained but information about how much to mive about, how to deal with swelling not so well covered.

Mr Praminthra Chitsabesan

General Surgeon

Today I attended the review 6 weeks after my inguinal hernia procedure. The meeting went very well as I have not experienced any issues since the procedure. Mr Chitsabesan was very happy with my progress and checked the area of the incision and it was all fine. He advised me to still be careful when lifting anything heavy and when coughing.

Dr Daniel Fishman

Rheumatologist

My daughter recently had a consultation with Dr Fishman with regard to Hypermobility and other concerns. We found Dr Fishman to be thorough, clear with explanations, courteous and happy to answer our questions. His follow up letter was done very quickly and was full of detail including next steps. We would highly recommend Dr Fishman.

Spire Bristol Hospital

Breast Surgery, Cardiology, + 18 more

The team who looked after me throughout my appointments at the Spire were exceptional, including the reception team Today’s visit was only marred by the lack of car parking spaces and careless parking by individuals which made navigating the car park dangerous and almost impossible due to the random positioning of Cars.
