Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, Paediatrics

Thank goodness we found you! My son was born with torticollis and, as a result, always slept on one side. We had no idea this would lead to the flattening of his head, especially since no advice was provided post-birth. He was subsequently diagnosed with Plagiocephaly and a 15mm asymmetry (which is classed as moderate). We felt incredibly let down by the initial lack of guidance. While repositioning could have helped in those early weeks, by the time we realised there was an issue, too much time had passed to correct it without intervention. Navigating the next steps was difficult, as we were faced with a plethora of misinformation. We had several NHS and private consultations, but no one could categorically tell us that a helmet would fix it. The "party line" from the NHS is that they don’t work, but I can now categorically say that is simply not true! We initially met with a different helmet company but got cold feet when they couldn't guarantee the results, they estimated a "best-case" improvement of only 9mm. Following a discussion with Bassel Zebian, a Paediatric Neurosurgeon at King's College Hospital, he recommended we see Dr. Stenhouse at Ahead4babies. After discovering that two of our friends had also used them, we felt reassured enough to reach out. From the very first phone call, we were sold. They were clear about what to expect, answered all our questions, and confirmed they could get the asymmetry down to 0mm. Knowing the clinic is run by craniofacial surgeons gave us total peace of mind that we were in good hands. Dr. Stenhouse, who carried out our son’s treatment, is a Consultant Maxillofacial Surgeon at King’s College Hospital. He is incredibly honest about expected outcomes and will not recommend a helmet if it isn't truly necessary. After the first meeting, you are given the space to digest the information and decide whether or not to proceed. This was a breath of fresh air compared to other companies that seem to focus more on profit than actual need. While other helmets might look "flashier," they often work by removing layers as the head grows. In my opinion, this is far less effective than Dr. Stenhouse’s approach, as he bespokely trims the inside of the helmet to accurately adapt to the head as it grows. Our son wore his helmet for 17 weeks in total. We eventually agreed it was time to stop at 1mm asymmetry rather than risk overcorrection. Throughout the process, the 24/7 WhatsApp support team was fantastic, making the entire journey incredibly smooth. To any parents in doubt, if your child has moderate or severe asymmetry and you are past the first 12 weeks where repositioning is most effective, get the helmet! It is extremely unlikely to improve significantly on its own. It is also VERY important that you take action early while their head is still soft to see faster results, ideally as soon as they can support their head (around 4–5 months). I hope this helps other parents navigating this process. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me on social media. I’ll leave you with a picture of the result, one happy baby with a perfectly shaped head!

The reception area was quiet, classy and elegant, and the overall atmosphere conveyed a level of respect and attentiveness that immediately put me at ease.

Throughout the session, she listened with genuine presence, care and offered insights that were both clear and deeply resonant. Dr. Edwards has a remarkable talent for explaining complex emotional patterns in a way that feels accessible and empowering. Rather than offering generic guidance, she tailored the conversation to my specific concerns, helping me understand not just what I was feeling, but why — and what meaningful steps I could take moving forward. It’s evident that she brings both skill and heart to her work, and that combination makes a profound difference. The setting itself further enhanced the experience. The clinic is beautifully maintained — discreet, peaceful, and spotless. It’s the kind of space where you can slow down, breathe, and focus entirely on yourself without distraction.

Dr Nikant Sabharwal

Cardiologist

I was met on reception by the doctor and immediately put at ease. In the consulting room he went through the procedure, causes and consequences of having permanent AF. Then, moving into the room to have my scan he pointed out what was being displayed on the screen showing the movement of blood through my heart and diagnosing the cause of my AF. I felt the procedure was never bing rushed and gave me plenty of opportunity to ask questions. He put me at easy explaining that my problem was quite common and although there was no easy cure, could be managed with medication and change of lifestyle. He confirmed that the risk of going ahead with my pending knee operation was fairly limited. I was pleased to see that his findings were passed on to my GP, sending me a copy of the letter.

Mr Parag Patel

ENT Surgeon

Mr Parag Patel has been exceptionally kind, reassuring, and caring throughout my treatment. I had suffered from chronic ear infection and pain for over a year and had been told that there were no further treatment options available. Mr Patel quickly identified the underlying problem and confidently explained that he could fix it. While he was honest that, as with any surgery, there is always a small risk it may not be successful, his experience and expertise gave me complete confidence and trust in his care. I am delighted to say that I am healing very well, and I could not be happier with the outcome. Thank you, Mr Patel, for your outstanding care and professionalism.

Fitzrovia Hospital

I came in today for surgery feeling incredibly nervous after a bad experience on the NHS previously, all I can say is I am so impressed with how different the process has been with the team today. Everyone from reception to the nurses to the anesthesiologist and of course Mr Banwell were genuinely fantastic and I can’t thank them enough. No question or ask was too much, I truly felt genuine care and warmth from all the staff. They checked on me regularly, reassured me constantly. My pain has been managed incredibly well and Mr Banwell’s precision has most definitely aided this too. I can’t be more grateful for everyone that cared for me today, Thank you all so much.

Santis Health - Prostate Cancer Clinic

Urology

Prof Chris Eden was all that I had been led to believe, understanding and sympathetic but wholly focused and professional. He explained the process and outlined the risks of the proposed surgery in clear layman's language that I could understand.. He did not sugar the pill! He carefully reviewed my medical history and identified several issues upon which he has requested additional investigation. I came away totally confident not only in his personal ability but also in the decisions that I have now made regarding my treatment plan. First impressions are very good.

Dorset Heart Clinic

Cardiology

I noticed the cleanliness of the office and waiting rooms. A very polite gentleman dealt with our car parking charge and wished us well - this was noted too. We were also kept informed of why the appointment was slightly late - this too was most appreciated since others in the waiting room were going ahead of us despite having later appointments. Simple things do make all the difference. Appointment itself was efficient as was the subsequent X-ray test downstairs. All in all - very pleased.

Mr Olumuyiwa O. Olubowale

Breast Surgeon

Had recent Gynaecomastia surgery with Mr Olubowale. He explained the process thoroughly, making me aware of all the possible outcomes that having this surgery could cause. Fortunately, everything went perfect, no pain medication needed and only short rest needed for full recovery. Really happy with the outcome both mentally and physically. My confidence has boosted as a result and i am no longer body conscious. Mr Olubawale was friendly throughout and knowledgable.

Professor Pier David Lambiase

Cardiologist

Prof Lambiase has been amazing throughout my ablation journey. Today was a follow-up from the procedure in October and he went through what he had done, explaining a very technical process clearly, going to some length to show the effects of the ablation. He showed me 'before and after' cardiograms to demonstrate the actual changes in the P curve. Altogether a very reassuring consultation with a most pleasant, professional and extremely competent Consultant.

Dr Arif Aslam

Dermatologist

My experience with Dr Islam, his team and the super sophisticated surgery was exceptional. From my initial contact right through until I walked out of the door cancer free after just 2 hours was astonishing. It was testament to the MOHS technique and Dr Aslam’s skill. The procedural care could not have been surpassed therefore I would not hesitate to recommend Dr Aslam. Ken M. - procedure date 8th December 2025

Mr Edward Pringle

Ophthalmologist

Mr Pringle is not only a brilliant surgeon but also an excellent communicator, very clearly explaining what the issues are and how best to resolve them. He makes complex procedures comprehensible to a medically ignorant person like me. And, on top of his technical expertise, he's also very calming, reassuring and expert at dispelling any worries you might have.

Mr Robert Marston

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I cannot speak too highly of Mr Marston. I have had elective surgery on three separate occasions , the first in 2009, which were very successful. In my hour of need after a very serious fall where I broke my artificial hip and shattered my femur he personally became involved to have me treated immediately. I will be forever grateful.

Lumen Health Assessments

General (Internal) Medicine, General Practice (GP)

Booking this appointment was the right thing to do, the thought of spending the majority of the days in test and reviewing the results was not something I looked forward to, but Dr Savin and the Lumen team were first class and the reassurance I've got from the visit (with some areas to work on) is definitely worth it.

Sarum Urology

Urology

The experience at my initial consultation was excellent. Everything was explained very clearly and put me at ease. I have been delighted with the successful outcome of my HoLEP prostate operation carried out by Mr Brewin and his support team. I suffered no pain. Nicky his medical secretary has been so helpful too.

Dr Sala Abdalla

General Surgeon

I was very nervous but everyone made me feel at ease and comfortable. I do feel like the instructions I was sent home with was a bit rushed, being by myself and just coming around this could have been given to me a later point. But everyone was super friendly when I would ask questions or repeated

On 8 January 2026 I went for a follow-up after surgery by Mr Pringle in October 2024, fearing my vision had deteriorated over the past few months but Mr Pringle was able to demonstrate to me that my sight had actually improved slightly.
