Professor Roman Cregg

Anaesthetist

I was referred to Dr Cregg for continuing pain after endometriosis surgery. He examined me and told me that I could ask to stop at any time. When the examination became painful I forgot how to ask him to stop, so he didn’t. Afterwards he did apologise for it being painful. The room at the Fortius did not feel set up for intimate exams. I had emailed his secretary some of my previous notes, which she confirmed she had received, but Dr Cregg did not have access to them at my appointment. He said he wanted to coordinate with the other specialties I was under regarding ongoing investigations, then didn’t. He said that bloating and distension are the same thing, but they are not. He wanted to refer me for an MRI to check for any issues with muscles or nerves, including endometriosis. He said we could discuss my questions later then took me to sign forms and disappeared, it was really unclear that was the end of the appointment. I was told when I booked that the first appointment would be 50 minutes, but in total it was maximum 30 minutes. I was then told by his secretary when to book an appointment to follow up with the results. The working day before, his secretary emailed me (not phoned) to cancel the appointment as my MRI had not yet been reported on. I had already booked a follow up appointment with my gynaecologist the afternoon of this planned appointment to discuss Dr Cregg’s findings, which I could now not change without being charged as I saw the email less than 24 working hours before. I told his secretary that my insurance plan was changing and I really needed the MRI results beforehand to have time for any potential treatment / surgery to still be covered. It was a lot of hassle to get the report, and when I eventually did see Dr Cregg he said I needed to follow up with my gynaecologist (again) to discuss one of the findings. He was late to the follow up appointment because he had double booked the slot, which he did apologise for. I told him the pain and vomiting were getting worse and felt unmanageable on my current medications. He told me to stop taking opioids and that he would never have prescribed them in the first place (which my other doctors disagreed with since I was only using them for flare ups); that he didn’t think I should start neuromodulators but didn’t explain why (several doctors wanted me to, I am now on a low dose for gastro issues and find it helpful); that I needed to use less heat for the pain; that pain can cause nausea and vomiting but he wouldn’t advise on antiemetics and to ask gastro instead (who then said that wasn’t her area either). He said the pain was from myofascial pain syndrome affecting the pelvic floor, with hormones causing flare ups. He didn’t listen when I said the pain he found felt very different to my flare up pain. He wanted me to do pelvic physio, which I’d already recently finished treatment with and my physio said she had checked the same areas he found to be painful. He said this could be with or without pelvic floor injections. I told him I didn’t feel I had enough information to decide, to which he replied that I had this conversation (?), the letter, and I could book an additional appointment if I wanted - I’m unsure how this would’ve helped. When I received the letter it said the injections were CT guided and done under sedation, which he had not mentioned. Later when I spoke with my insurance they wanted to know why the sedation was necessary, which I could not answer. He uses some sort of AI assistance during appointments but doesn’t explain beforehand. Both my letters have several mistakes. He did emphasise in the letter that his diagnosis was separate from endometriosis in order for my insurance to cover treatment for me. I tried removing my IUS and have had no pain or vomiting since. My gynaecologist now thinks the IUS was causing my flare ups. So I don’t believe Dr Cregg’s treatment plan would’ve worked. I have since seen another pelvic physio for a second opinion who said since I now have no pain, she doesn’t think I should pursue his treatment plan. I have not been able to reproduce the pain from his examination, so she thought possibly I was nervous and tense in his appointment.

Moorfields Private Eye Hospital

Ophthalmology

would like to make a complaint following an IPL treatment I had on 21/01/26. I had a consultation with Dr Branka and a subsequent telephone conversation with Krupa. I repeatedly asked this whether was risk of my symptoms being exacerbated by the treatment. I was repeatedly reassured that this would not happen. I had email exchanges with Krupa where she assured me repeatedly that the greatest reaction that I would get would be mild reddening around the eye lid for 30 mins. I had explained that I had a job interview the following day and was advised that would not be any reaction or issue. I was reassured both by email and in person on the day. My skin had a significant reaction to the procedure. The possibility of such a reaction to such a procedure had never been explained or even suggested. On meeting Dr Branka post procedure, she told me that my eyes weren’t dry, and in fact were significantly better. She said the tear break up was 7 seconds and that there had been an improvement, however I would like a second opinion on this, as they feel dryer and are visibly red, whereas they were not immediately beforehand. The visibly look and feel much worse than prior to the procedure. I completely feel like I’m being fobbed off. When I said to Dr Branka that I was not made aware of the risks she cheerfully old me that I signed the consent form and that of course there is the possibility of this reaction particularly with my very think skin. I was completely unaware that I had thin skin or that there could have been such a complication which would exacerbate my skin and eye problems. I explained that had a risk of this IPL been ‘worsening of dry eye symptoms, worsening of ocular rosacea/ rosacea’ I would have NEVER had the procedure. Dr Branka just said of course there was a risk and told me it happens in those people with rosacea. This had NEVER been mentioned in the consultation prior to the procedure. My eyes were not significantly bothersome prior to the treatment, I did it as a preventative to improve the gland and to avoid the dry eye disease progressing. When I asked Dr Branka what next in terms of how I manage this now worse situation she said that I can only use cotton flannels and saline as I am reactive to most things. She has told me I need to pay privately for a dermatologist for advice. This is not only causing me health problems but costing me money to resolve this. I have already spent over £700 for the consultation with dr Branka and the procedure! I am left anxious, distressed and upset by this experience and the ongoing problems. It has caused further issues with my skin. The rosacea was not posing a problem prior to the IPL and while I had been prescribed Soolantra and Azealic acid I had not needed to take them as I was not experiencing a flare up. I do not know where to go now for help, advice or to resolve this issue. I am really upset as my eyes and skin have worsened as a result and I am left alone to deal with it or pay out for help to try to correct it. Again, to reiterate, I would never have had IPL if I had known there was any risk of worsening symptoms. This was never explained, even when I explicitly asked initially. Dr Branka from from the outset said I was a good candidate but I needed to check with a dermatologist due to family skin cancer. I had checked this and the dermatologist said it would not be a problem from the perspective of skin cancer. I would like another opinion. I would like advice treatment and next steps. Not from dr Branka as all faith has gone.

Mr Ali Salih

General Surgeon

I first met Mr Salih at Nuffield Health (Brentwood) in December 2019, as I had two very large sebaceous cysts on my scalp that were growing at an alarming rate. I was understandably a little nervous, but he quickly put me at ease by clearly explaining the procedure and the options available. The procedure took place just one week later under local anaesthetic. Mr Salih kept me calm and fully informed throughout, and it was over very quickly and completely painlessly. My hairdresser has since commented that she is amazed she can no longer see where the cysts were, as the scars are barely visible. He is an excellent surgeon and someone I trust implicitly, so I have no hesitation in recommending his services (I paid privately). In fact, I recently returned to have a further three cysts removed and once again received an excellent level of care.

He takes the time to make sure parents fully understand what is going on, which gives a lot of confidence and reassurance. He has consistently been very accurate and quick in identifying symptoms and finding the right treatments.

St Giles Physiotherapy provided excellent care for my painful wrist, and I would highly recommend them to anyone needing physiotherapy in Northampton. From the outset Georgia understood my issue which meant we could maximize the appointment time for hands-on treatment. She used a variety of different techniques during the session, which made the treatment feel thorough and targeted rather than one‑dimensional. I was also given clear follow-up advice and tailored exercises to continue at home, which has really helped my recovery between appointments. Everyone I dealt with at the clinic was caring, friendly and genuinely interested in helping me, which made the whole experience feel very supportive as well as professional.

Ringway Dental Cheadle

Dentistry

I came for a wisdom tooth extraction that was a bit more complex and I was extremely nervous but everyone was brilliant. Thank you so much to the lovely nurse who held my hand throughout and to the dental surgeon who kept me informed and as calm as she could throughout as I was in the chair for about an hour overall! Ringway is such a lovely dental practice to visit and actually very affordable with the monthly plan - and much nicer than my previous surgery which was more expensive!

Quality Dental : Shoreham

Dentistry

I was called in to see the dentist 15 minutes after my scheduled appointment time, which normally doesn't happen. It was the first time I'd seen this dentist and she was lovely. Very thorough and gentle too. Her assistant was a little rough with the suction tool and I had to get her to stop a couple of times, as my teeth were cleaned. Overall though I was very pleased and have re-booked with the same dentist.
