Ms Christina Kourie

Audiologist

Here is my story. I am 72 and severely deaf (70-90db)! So without hearing aids its lip reading for me...... I was having problems with my new generation hearing aids supplied by a leading brand - which I had been using for 8 years or so. Three or four fittings and the experience was not great - muffled, croaky voices and poor sound dynamics (loud - soft). So I asked my Portobello GP if he had any ideas as it was time for me to check out another audiologist - either it was my hearing going down further or the hearing aids. He recommended Pindrop - saying it was the only show in town! Thats when I met Christina. First thing she did was an audiogram then a hearing-in-noise test in a booth. First time for me! Came as a big surprise that I had never been offered this test before. I was hearing only 48% of what was being broadcast. So she re-fitted the hearing aids using the new audiogram and then using REM software, adjusted the proprietary fitting program. Also new to me! We re did the hearing-in-noise test and it went up to 86%. So a big improvement for me and those who engage with me. Also real verification - not trial and error - which was my previous experience. So a big thanks to Christina. Christina then suggested I may do even better with the new Phonak Sphere hearing aids. Next generation using AI can reduce unwanted noise materially. So of course i said yes. And they are truly excellent - I have now been using them for 2 weeks. Much better than the previous brand. A step change. So my hearing experience has taken a huge jump up! So well done Christina on this. It is the most important hope of the deaf! The supply and setting up of the all the new equipment: hearing aids, moulds, back ups, roger, tv connector, apps was all done smoothly and efficiently. They also all hand shake very well - turn on the tv: it streams automatically. Same with online meetings and i-phone. No manual switching needed. Roger just works when turned on. So altogether a big win for me. Thanks Pindrop and thanks Christina. I will be even happier when Pindrop offers Whats App messaging to its customers - hopefully soon!

Hi My time with glenda was superb , since the start of my sessions i was greeted with great compassion. Glenda has a great ability to dig up issues that made me feel i was in the right place. When i was diagnosed with depression ,anxiety ,ptsd and finally adhd glenda started with my adhd issues first which we worked together to finally understand my feelings and also understand who i was . Glenda has really helped me with talking about my depression in a big way as i thought it was just normal to feel sucidal all the time and thinking real bad things in my mind. I have always known there was something not quite right since when i was young but again i thought it was normal but glenda taught me to understand that things i did and have done over the years were not so normal . I felt i was in good hands with glenda and like to thanks her again for helping me at such a bad time in my life , and if anyone else in this world needs that help glenda is there to help. I am now in a better place

Mr Clarence Yeoh

Orthopaedic Surgeon

mr Yeoh was very clear in his assessment of my problem and I was happy he has agreed to try and help to alleviate my pain and lack of movement by performing surgery although I am not particularly happy about the possibility of having to wait for up to six months for this to happen as that would mean me having to live with the pain and restrictive movement I currently have for almost a year.I didn’t mention this to mr Yeoh during my consultation but because of that I would jump at the chance of being offered the chance of a cancellation if one became available

Mr Oliver Dean Stone

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I have had two consultations with Mr Stone so far which have been excellent. Mr Stone is thorough, professional and knowledgeable. He is very caring, patient and an extremely good communicator. I have also been impressed by his comprehensive follow up letters. It is extremely helpful to have the full picture in black and white so one is not relying on memory of all of those medical terms! I am hoping the steroid injections I have received will work wonders but if I do need an operation I have every confidence that Mr Stone will look after me extremely well.

Mr Fady Sedra

Orthopaedic Surgeon

In a world all consumed with AI and perfection, I can honestly say Mr Fady Sedra outshines AI. 5 Stars for Mr Fady Sedra and the staff at The Cromwell Hospital, after my ACDF surgery I can say Mr Fady Sedra's attention to detail is unmatched. He has an excellent bedside manner and displayed a level of professionalism that is rare to find. Mr Fady Sedra went above and beyond to make sure I was well cared for. The X-Ray of my neck should be in an art gallery as it is truly a work of art by Mr Fady Sedra. I highly recommend for any complex spinal work.

Miss Christina Summerhayes

Breast Surgeon

Miss Summerhayes filled me with confidence from our very first consultation. Her guidance was delivered with honesty, kindness, and unwavering support throughout my treatment. Combined with the genuine, wraparound care provided at every stage by Sarah Sanger, my experience was as positive as it could possibly have been under the circumstances. Thanks to their exceptional skill, dedication, and compassion, I have come through my treatment with a positive outcome, for which I will be forever grateful.

Dr Bernard Prendergast

Cardiologist

I have been privileged to have had the expertise of the wonderful Professor Bernard Prendergast on several occasions over a span of around 15 years now. As always the care is outstanding. He effortlessly puts you at ease and kindly explains everything clearly and professionally. What might seem completely impossible, in his hands is entirely possible . . . or so it has proved in my case. He's exceptional! I'd also like to say thank you for the friendliness, skill and efficiency of all the staff.

Dr Girish Ganesha Babu

Cardiologist

I recently had a fantastic experience with Dr Babu after having some heart palpitations before Christmas. I also had an upcoming holiday and he accommodated my time restrictions perfectly, making sure I could go on holiday with peace of mind and a plan in place should my palpitations get worse. I can’t recommend him enough, as someone who finds health issues very stressful I was completely at ease.

Dr Benjamin Shaw

Audiovestibular Medicine Practitioner

I recently consulted with Dr Ben Shaw regarding a balance issue following sudden hearing loss. He was highly knowledgeable, asked a series of pertinent questions and undertook some physical examinations. His diagnosis was spot on. He is a real expert in his field, in which his interest and enthusiasm shines through. A pleasure to deal with.

Hi, the clinic appointment and after care was good. However the supplement for Hifas equilibrium are in large tablet form, which I am unable to comfortably take, hence why you kindly looked for a magnesium powder. Is it possible to discuss this further to change that particular supplement? Thank you, Anna
