Mr Simon Newman

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I had surgery on my hip as a small child due to severe dysplasia and have lived with restricted movement my whole life. The fantastic surgeon at RNOH at the time created a hip that functioned very well for me for many years but pain and limitations were the normal day to day. I had delayed getting my hip replaced for decades, wanting to wait as long as possible as I was young but after seeing Mr Newman and discussing a Mako hip replacement I felt confident that he would be able to improve what I had. At the consultation he was clear, honest and made me feel more relaxed about the procedure. On surgery day he was reassuring and I was very happy for him to carry out the surgery. He followed up with visits every day I that was in hospital. The results have been better than I had imagined. He has been able to give me, not only a functioning hip but has even improved the external appearance of it. I’m very grateful for his expertise and couldn’t be happier with the results. At my follow up appointments Mr Newman patiently answered all my questions with honesty and knowledge and made me feel very welcome to contact him in the future with any concerns. I would be hesitate to recommend him as an excellent hip surgeon.

Skylight Psychiatry

Psychiatry

The communication from Skylignt is poor. My final report stated I did not complete 2 of the questionnaires, which I did, as I saved copies of my answers in case technology failed. Nobody chased these missing questionnaires and the response time when I did contact the admin team was 15 working days each time. All of the timescales I was told from start to finish were very inaccurate. Some of these timescales are still on the website. From referral to acknowledgement I was informed 6-8 weeks and it was 9 weeks. From acknowledgement/forms to initial appointment I was informed 8-12 weeks and waited 16 weeks. From assessment to report I was told 8-10 weeks and it was 14 weeks. I have been told 9 months from October until medication titration, but I can’t trust that this timescale is accurate. The staff are very friendly and helpful and brilliant when you do have an interaction with them, but the volume of work must be beyond current capacity to provide such inaccurate information to patients who are seeking support/diagnosis for a condition that requires accuracy and creates a high level of anxiety.

Vision Scotland Glasgow

Health and Social Care, Ophthalmology, + 1 more

My first appointment was arranged within a week. After my appointment I was offered surgery in exactly one more week. Everything was great, lovely facilities, lovely staff. Everyone was very friendly and constantly being offered coffee etc. On every occasion I was taken either on time or early. I was put at ease and everything was fully explained and what the best lenses for me would be, based on my history and interests. On the day of surgery, everything went fine and there was no pain whatsoever, merely a strange feeling as the surgeon did his stuff. Afterwards I was given advice re eye drops and aftercare and again all great. Everything was fine when I got home, merely discomfort and that soon passed. I had plenty of people checking and following up that all was well. Finally, I had a follow up visit after a few weeks and again everything was great and very professional and I was advised to see my optician and GP. Throughout my time, the service I received was first class.

Thames View at Charing Cross Hospital

Respiratory Medicine, General Surgery, + 39 more

We met the excellent Mr Arthur Dalton who has known me since 2023 when he led the outstanding NHS team (which included the ICU nurses) that saved my life after a brain subarahcnoid haemorrhage and, again, in 2024, when my aneurysm needed recoiling and a flow diverting stent was also inserted . This time we sought his opinion to help us decide between two treatments for a brain meningioma, after two previous consultations at another private hospital had created confusion and anxiety,. As always, with impeccable professionalism and a warm approach, he explained the pros and cons of each procedure in relation to my particular case, allowing us to finally make the decision that suited us best. It is always deeply reassuring and an absolute joy to receive Mr Dalton’s opinion. We feel extremely lucky to have met him.

Cathedral Eye Clinic

Ophthalmology, Optometry

I recently attended an initial appointment and was very impressed with the service. All staff were friendly, professional, and welcoming. The optician/optometrist carried out a range of detailed tests on both the health and vision of my eyes, and explained every result clearly. In the end, I did not need to proceed with any treatment at this stage, as it would not significantly improve my sight. I was advised that waiting a year or two would give better value and a more meaningful result. It was reassuring to see that the practice prioritises what is genuinely best for patients rather than recommending unnecessary procedures. Overall, an honest and professional service that inspires confidence.

Mr Stelios Myriknas

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I required a caesarean birth because my baby was in the breech position. Stelios was really warm and kind. He offered me a scan on the day to check if my baby had turned the right way around before the surgery. He listened to my birth preferences (delayed cord cutting and skin to skin) and my preferences were respected. I am sure this contributed to the success we have had with breastfeeding and my baby seems very healthy. My incision is also healing well, I did not have any infection or complications and we were able to go home after just staying for one night in the hospital, which I am very grateful for.

The London Clinic

Physiotherapy, Dermatology, + 13 more

had a fantastic experience at The London Clinic. The staff were warm, professional, and incredibly attentive from start to finish. The facilities are spotless and very comfortable, which made the whole process much easier. I underwent a gastroscopy and colonoscopy here, and everything was handled smoothly and with great care. The nursing team were especially kind and reassuring throughout. The London Clinic is exceptionally well‑organised, and the level of patient care is truly outstanding. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for high‑quality medical treatment in a supportive environment.

Dr. Fiona Vij

Emergency Medicine Doctor, General Practitioner

I would definitely recommend Dr Vij. The consultation with her was pleasant yet thorough. It was clear that she had read my history and was (painlessly!) able to lead our discussion to fill in any blanks. She managed to elicit and clarify my aims and expectations for the consultation, and then set out to fulfil them in a professional and courteous manner. After the consultation, her analysis and response was, again, thorough, professional and easy to understand, with clear identification of possible next steps.

Vermilion - The Smile Experts Kelso

Dental Care, Dentistry

All staff at Vermilion are friendly yet very professional. I had an emergency referral after losing four front teeth in a sports accident. Every step of my treatment was explained simply yet in detail. This was especially important for me, a stroke survivor, who has difficulty understanding things. My entire treatment was gentle and painless. I was looked after exceptionally well by reception staff, dental nurses, dentists, hygienists. Would recommend Vermilion Kelso 100%. Thank you

Harley Mind Care

Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, Psychiatry, + 1 more

Extremely disappointed with Harley Mind Care. Terrible patient communication, no accountability for mistakes made, I had to chase up and argue regarding every appointment for my daughter. Assessment appointment was cut short and when I raised a complaint to my insurance company Harley Mind lied about this. I do not feel my child was given adequate opportunity to discuss her concerns that led us to seeking an assessment in the first place. I would not recommend this clinic.

Professor Michael Bloomfield

Psychiatrist

Professor Bloomfield is an exceptional psychiatrist. He balances professional expertise with a very kind, human touch. I never feel rushed during our appointments; he is patient with my questions and always provides well-rounded, informative feedback. He doesn't just provide a service; he provides a thoughtful partnership in mental health. I feel much more confident in my journey thanks to his guidance.

Fitzrovia Suite

Obstetrics & Gynaecology

We couldn't have asked for a better team to take care of us during the few days we spent at Fitzrovia suite. Consultants, nurses, midwives, anaesthetic, theatre teams were very kind, understanding and caring with us. We felt so contained, supported and cared for. In the first days leading to birth and the few days after birth, we got to feel safe in a bubble or care thanks to all of you.

Mr Noaman Sarfraz

General Surgeon

Mr Sarfraz is a lovely man and a superb surgeon! He is very friendly and easy to talk to and made my recent surgery as stress free as possible, given the circumstances. He is clearly an extremely skilled and experienced surgeon and takes real pride in his work. I honestly couldn't have wished for anything more from my treatment and cannot recommend him highly enough.

Mr Rohit Jain

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Mr Jain listened to my symptoms examine me and took Swift action to arrange scans x-rays and an appointment to come back and see him within two weeks. I couldn’t be more grateful as I’m in a lot of pain and to think that I’m actually moving forward made me extremely happy for potentially a knee replacement to get me back moving again and living my life
