Mr Neil Fairbairn

Plastic Surgeon

I am absolutely delighted with my new breasts following my breast reduction surgery. I was extremely nervous going into the process, but Mr Fairbairn put me at ease from the first consultation. He carefully explained the entire procedure and took time to answer all of my questions, giving me a clear understanding of the reduction and putting my mind at rest. On the day of the operation, Mr Fairbairn marked out the outline of my breasts, his calm, reassuring, and approachable manner helped ease any remaining nerves. I felt confident and well cared for throughout. The staff at Ross Hall were professional, friendly and ensured I was comfortable and pain-free at all times. They also provided clear and helpful advice for my recovery at home. Mr Fairbairn was contactable throughout the process and my recovery for any queries, which was reassuring. I cannot thank Mr Fairbairn and the team at Ross Hall enough. I am thrilled with my results and would highly recommend the surgery to anyone considering a breast reduction. My advice would be not to be afraid to ask questions and to go for it — it’s truly life-changing, and I only wish I’d done it sooner. Thanks Sheila

Miss Mez Aref-Adib

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I was operated on by Mez and her team on the 16th of September 2025. I can honestly say that the whole experience has changed my life for the better. You asked about 'bedside manner', I can only say that this made all the difference to what, of course, is a stressful and anxiety-driven moment. Maz called me the Sunday before the operation and introduced herself. I knew instantly that I was going to be in good hands. She listened with intent, she asked the right questions, and quickly understood my predicament. She did not overpromise, she didn't assume or discourage, instead she advised and reassured. The circumstance, I hope, is an unusual one (although, sadly, I think that I might be incorrect). I am a 55-year-old woman who has had gynae complications since I was 20 years of age. Only recently being diagnosed with adeimiosis, I have been in chronic pain for years. Mez instantly understood this challenging journey and empathised with my story. I cannot thank her enough. Prior to, during and after her care and attention to patient care was exemplary. Thank you, Mez!

Made typos on my medical documents several times regardless of me flagging they require updates Can’t schedule simple appointment times and check with people if they are available instead sending random meeting times which clash with my work On 3 occasions now I have tried to join a meeting to have no one there Even if I am having problems connecting and 2 mins late someone should be in the allocated slot waiting especially given the people you are meeting with are disabled All this titration has done is add extra stress to my life instead of helping anything I am now going through medication withdrawals because I have been unable to meet in my titration meetings regales of me flagging several times that these timings do not work with my work commitments and now I have extra stress and pressure on my life at an extremely stressful time Would not recommend this to anyone it’s taken me a whole year since my diagnosis to even get to this point and I am still being messed around

Freedom Vision - Hull

Ophthalmology, Optometry

I normally don’t write reviews, I’m someone who feels that if you do your job well, there is no need. However I have just been been signed off for my second eye cataract surgery and would like to thank all those involved in bringing this about. It was a long haul as my second eye was so bad after an accident back in my teens that a lens had to be made specially to correct my vision. It took about six weeks to make, but I was kept informed of progress regularly. I have nothing but praise for the people who saw me throughout. From the security guys, reception and medical team, to the optometrists, the surgeon and of course Hannah. As my point of contact, Hannah was there to answer my questions and kept me up to date with progress. Once again thanks one and all. In the nicest possible way, I hope I don’t see you again for a long, long time.

Dentistry, Ear Nose & Throat Surgery (ENT/Otolaryngology), + 6 more

I was made to wait 6 months for my cataract operations because I had a cardioversion. This is a short sedation rather than a general anaesthetic. I have been given no clinical explanations for this. I am in perfect health despite my age. I understand that a normal waiting time at other hospitals is 6 weeks with good recovery after a major operation. I suspect there are no clinical reasons, just a bureaucratic hesitation to take the slightest risk. I wonder how many patients discover that “Well soon” should be retitled “Well sometime”. Your bureaucratic incompetence is illustrated by your list of specialists which does not include the name of my surgeon, your lead ophthalmologist Dr Marzena Raszewska. It is her recorded ability that persuaded me to wait the 6 months rather than seek an alternative.

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 Jason Ho

Ophthalmologist

I am extremely happy with Mr. Ho's professionalism and the results of my cataract procedures. Mr. Ho is an excellent communicator with a very calm (and calming) demeanor, and helped me decide on which lenses to opt for, what goals to aim for, and what to expect based on a variety of options. Throughout the procedures he communicated with me and made sure they were as stressless as possible. I now see better than I have seen in many years, and am able to read, work on my computer, and see long distance with no glasses. Thank you Mr. Ho!

Professor Dorota Dworakowska

Diabetes & Endocrinology Specialist

My experience with Prof Dorota was excellent and very pleasant. She is such a wonderful doctor and on my first consultation she addressed not only my medical condition but she also asked me about my nutrition, sleep, sport and my day to day job. She is one of the few doctors that she has a holistic approach and listen to her patients. In my opinion she is a gem in Endocrinology and recommended her to a friend recently. Love Prof Dorota and thank you so much for all the advice you gave me as a doctor but also as a woman to woman.

Mr Tim Barton

Physiotherapist

Tim made it very easy to communicate via email and find an appointment time that suited us. His rehab instructions were clear to my son and he took Tim’s advice very seriously! As a result his knee is much stronger and he has managed the injury well. Tim managed the claims himself with our healthcare insurance company meaning the admin was far less than I’ve experienced in the past. We have been given a very precise return to sport programme which I know my son will stick to. Thank you for the support!

I felt that I’ve been looked after from the beginning till end. From the anaesthetist to the nurses Thank you for your amazing staff and even when I woke up after the surgery the 3 ladies there are absolutely fantastic. I want to say thank you so much to Jacklyn she looked after me like a pro. I love how she made sure she listine to what I need and acted on it. Thank you! Of course Dr Sojitra always the best and will certainly travel far and wide to make sure his the one whose going to be my surgeon.

Dr Padmanabhan Subramanian

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I can't praise 'Dr Paddy' highly enough. From a clear explanation of the proposed procedure, to carrying out the operation and even taking the time to drop in on me at discharge, he was superb. The quality of his surgical technique is borne out by an amazingly speedy recovery. In less than three weeks I was off crutches around the house, in less than 5 weeks taking short walks outside and driving, all without any noticeable discomfort or difficulty. 5 stars are not enough. THANK YOU!!

Mr Simon Coleridge

Orthopaedic Surgeon

From start to finish my experience has been excellent, from admin to reception to consultations to the hospital team. Mr Coleridge has been clear & concise, answering my questions, fully explaining my options/ the prognosis etc. The option to wait probably the best part of a year for NHS treatment was not an option for my injury, and having had Mr Coleridge recommended by both my GP and physio I’d extremely glad I dealt with him, and he got me back on my feet…..literally!

Dr Edward Nash

General (Internal) Medicine

Dr Nash had requested all my data from the Birmingham Hospitals and had read and fully understood the contents. He then asked me for many other details relevant to my condition and performed respiratory tests to make comparisons with my notes. He showed real interest in my concerns about my health. When I left the appointment I felt confident being in his care and had a plan arranged with him to proceed with the investigation of my lung condition.

Castle Craig Hospital

Psychiatry, Psychotherapy

The combination of therapies under one roof is Castle Craig's strong point and a great team of staff, all really friendly and helpful. I was here for six weeks and the intensive therapy schedule has been extremely beneficial for me. Family therapy was helpful and I'm working hard to mend the relationships in my family. The fitness sessions were a highlight, the staff got me moving and thinking about healthy living after years of alcohol abuse.

Clarity - Blackpool

Ophthalmology

I decided to have laser correction done privately after finding out the waiting time for NHS treatment was too long. My cataract operations and laser correction on one eye were done at Chec and I have nothing but praise on the way I was treated by all staff, clinical as well as administrative. Based on this I had full trust in using Clarity, knowing that I would be treated by the same caring consultants.

I cannot fault my hospital stay in any respect. It was a wholly positive experience, notwithstanding that I had major surgery! Every single member of staff I encountered made me feel I mattered. They were, without exception, so professional and caring and kind. And - when I needed a hug I received several! I would describe the care I received, from start to finish and in every respect, as exemplary.
