Mr Graeme Hopper

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I am an international masters hockey player , which normally involves playing 5 full games over a 10 day period. Eighteen months ago I got constant pain in my left knee. During a tournament last year I was really struggling to play as was in constant pain from game one and it only got worse over the tournament. I got an MRI and had a consultation with a specialist knee surgeon, who stated that the pain was mainly due to wear and tear. The cartilage had thinned and there were signs of osteoarthritis and inflammation. We tried a cortisone injection which did absolutely nothing for me. I was reluctant to get a partial knee replacement but was not keen on the recovery time and also how successful it would be. After finding out about arthromacid and doing some research I decided to give it a go as it is much less invasive than surgery. The procedure was very straightforward and had a bit of stiffness and a bit of constant pain for about 10 days. Since then I have had bit of constant pain but the majors thing is that I don’t notice it when playing and even managed to play 5 games in 10 days with only a very slight degradation in performance and no significant increase in pain. I am very pleased with the outcome of the procedure and am hoping to be continue playing into the future.

We went today for our gender scan. The waiting room was lovely and was nice to have a drink and biscuit whilst waiting. We were early and went in not long after our appointment time. Once in the scan the two ladies were lovely and so friendly. Our baby was being difficult and didn’t want us to see what gender they were. They checked everything else for us and did all the measurements and checks which we were grateful for. The ladies did everything they could to not have our journey wasted. I first was sent for a wee, then a walk and a hot drink. Baby was still sitting cross legged whilst cuddling the cord so told us to go shopping and then come back. Once arriving back the lady told us to sit and wait and she’ll come get us once she could. Wasn’t waiting long and went back in. Finally was able to see our babies gender. The Ladies loved seeing our baby, laughed with us about their movements as they were active and couldn’t reassure us more that our baby was happy and healthy. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience. We didn’t have the best first experience with NHS but this had made up for it. Will forever recommend this place to friends and family.

Zack treated my son for deep verrucas caused by swimming, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with the care we received. The diagnosis and treatment were done in the same appointment, and everything was handled with so much care and professionalism. My son is 9 years old and was understandably nervous, but Zack was fantastic at keeping him calm, confident, and engaged throughout the treatment. He was reassuring, patient, and made the whole experience far less daunting. The treatment itself was quick and very well managed. We went back for a follow-up today and were given the all-clear, along with a top-up treatment to remove any remaining dead skin and ensure nothing was left behind. Zack explained everything clearly to both my son and me, which really empowered us and reassured us that this was the best course of action. Zack was excellent — funny, caring, and professional — exactly what you want, especially when treating a young child. I would highly recommend him without hesitation.

Mr Irshad Shaikh

General Surgeon

I recently had an operation performed by Professor Shaikh. In the lead up, I had several discussions with him about the way forward; he was highly professional and very helpful. He explained the options to me very carefully, he gave advice and allowed time for me to ask questions which he answered fully. However, I was over weight and he explained very carefully the risks posed in surgery by the extra weight I was carrying. We decided a way forward together; we set a date for the operation, allowing time for me to lose some weight. I was very grateful to him for providing me with a clear focus and for his encouragement. By the date of the operation, I had lost a substantial amount of weight and the operation was performed successfully. I have a great deal to thank Professor Shaikh for - in addition to his surgical expertise, I am grateful for his advice, encouragement and support. I have the utmost confidence in him and I have no hesitation in recommending him, unreservedly.

We first went 4 years ago with our first son and had 4 scans. We are pregnant again and just had our final scan which would be our 3rd/4th this pregnancy and every time we go the ladies are just a pleasure. So kind, so thorough and just lovely lovely people. We had Lisa today asked she is so nice, patient and a lovely person. There is usually a young girl at reception who is lovely but today there was a different lady who possibly was having a bad day as she was not welcoming not friendly. Possibly didn’t want to be at work and she had the impression she couldn’t be bothered. But it wouldn’t stop me from going as everyone else is always great

Mr Anwar Jafri

Orthopaedic Surgeon

. Mr Jaffri is an excellent communicator who is very reassuring and approachable. He carried out a detailed investigation into my condition and explained everything clearly, including a thorough description of the procedure. The operation itself and the post-operative care were excellent, with my recovery very well managed. I achieved a really good outcome and am now back to a very good level of functioning. He was always punctual and made himself available outside of consultations when needed, which was greatly appreciated. I felt well informed and confident in his care throughout.

Mr Mark Farndon

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I have had several operations under the care of Mr Farndon over the years and I have recently undergone a full knee replacement under his care. Mr Farndon is very professional, caring and always has time to listen to your concerns. Mr Farndon came to see me after the operation explaining everything to me and also visited the next day. All the staff at the Duchy were efficient and caring. With the expertise and continual care by Mr Farndon and his team I am on the road to recovery and I would certainly recommended Mr Farndon as I have already done to family and friends.

The staff was great. I was on the ground floor ward and was well taken care off. Members of staff were kind, courteous and helpful. I specifically note that staff members such as Sibo, Clementina, Clara and Ashy were very good and efficient and overall made my treatment a positive experience. My one to one therapist was excellent, in that Holly. I do however note that the food quality was inconsistent, at times the meals were good but there were times where things fell short as limited alternatives were available.

Mr Basavaiah Natesh

ENT Surgeon

I visited Mr Natesh with breathing difficulties while sleeping and working out. He explained everything clearly and simply, even drawing illustrations of my nose. My septoplasty went very smoothly and healed perfectly, and the aftercare was very helpful. Mr Natesh made sure to do a full check, including my tonsils and I felt assured that the whole picture is being considered. My breathing has massively improved since the procedure.

Marris Medical were great from start to end. Booking the appointment was easy, with friendly staff. On the day of the appointment I was taken in earlier, the MRI procedure was explained and completed with ease. I was told I would get my report in 24-48 hours (over the festive period) however received it the same day in the afternoon. I would highly recommend them. I would definitely use them again if needed.

A great experience for my ear wax removal, Dr Allamsetty & team explained throughout so I knew what was happening and what to expect. It can be strange when someone is rummaging about in your ears but when they are blocked getting them microsuctioned is one of the best things you can do, Professional throughout - would highly recommend.

Prompt, on time. Comfortable waiting area, convenient parking. Filling out the details on paper seemed a bit inefficient, couldn’t this be done online before the appointment and have paper as a back up? The on site pharmacy did not stock the prescribed medication, which was a little disappointing.

Dr. Ryan O'Neil

General Practitioner

Extremely kind and thoughtful. Dr O’Neil made me feel very at ease , and was very helpful and supportive with my condition. He listened attentively with no hesitation during my examinations, and gave me advice which I didn’t know about for my condition for which I’m grateful for. Thank you!

Mr Jerome Lim

ENT Surgeon

I saw Mr Lim due to having a perforated ear that required surgery. Mr Lim was very professional and thorough throughout my experience. His knowledge and communication skills are excellent and he is very approachable and easy to talk to. I would highly recommend using Mr Lim.
