Dr. Gergana Peeva

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

This review is 4 years later than it should be, because I only today came across the scan code to do a review. 4 years or 40 years, I will never forget the magnificent Dr Gergana Peeva who delivered our second and final child for our family. I had a very traumatic experience when I was forced into an elective c section at another hospital with our first child, the choice to have a natural birth was taken from me despite my having no medical issues but because I was an older mum, the Dr strongly advised it and as I didn’t know any better, i made the mistake of listening to the Dr. It took me many years to recover from the traumatic c section when induction failed. So second time around, I chose Homerton Hospital as I read many good things on the Care Commission website. When my waters broke, I made it clear at the hospital I wanted to have a natural birth, the difference it the nurses and Dr’s listened to me this time and this really made all the difference to me both mentally and emotionally. After 2 days and much helpful, caring and understanding dialogue between the Dr’s and myself, I agreed to a c section. But this time it was my decision and it was because I understood natural birth was not progressing which was harmful to the baby. Dr Peeva took me aside and gently explained things and we went through my concerns. The nurse who assisted, I can’t remember her name due to the years that have passed, I think her name was Genesis, was also wonderful in her care towards me. I was open to all staff on my previous traumatic c- section at the other hospital and they were willing to listen and their empathy made my second birth, albeit a c section again as I had not wanted, a much better and happier overall experience. When Dr Peeva held up our baby following delivery and imitated the scene from the lion king, it has etched in my mind and memory with deep fondness for her. I can and will never forget the kindness, professionalism and simply goodness of Dr Peeva, a wonderful and amazing human being regardless of her profession.

Hormone Health

General Practice (GP), Obstetrics & Gynaecology

When booking the consultation with Nick Panay, the earliest available date was 2 months in advance. I was required to pay the full £395 under pressure at time, being told that the consultation would be lost unless I paid by 5pm. My understanding that this appointment would be for specialist, in-depth input tailored to a complex clinical history. Given that context, I was disappointed that the consultation felt limited to a reiteration of guideline-based recommendations, with little opportunity to explore causation, individual nuance, or the specific questions I had prepared. At several points during the consultation, I felt that my questions were closed down rather than explored, and the overall tone felt more directive than supportive. Given my long and complex medical history, I had hoped for a more compassionate and collaborative approach. Instead, I left the consultation feeling unheard and dismissed, which was distressing. I had hoped for greater depth and collaborative discussion, particularly in light of the significant upfront cost. I was given no additional value beyond what I already knew and was told in any case, that I required a further consultation to finalise a treatment plan. I have been in contact with the practice and explained that the consultation did not meet the reasonable expectations set by the cost, structure, or positioning of this service. I appreciate that since, I have received a considered response from the Practice Manager and the consultation and fee are being reviewed.

Dr Animesh Singh

Rheumatologist

Great doctor with thoughtful and carrying approach to patients. I have a very rare autoimmune condition, which is very less researched and nasty to treat and yet Dr. Singh agreed to try to help me, provided great guidance and potential treatment strategy that I am now pursuing under his care. I initially contacted him for the second opinion to verify my diagnosis and treatment plan from a very honourable and well established rheumatology professor, but I ended up switching under his care completely, because of the competence, grounded/practical approach and attention to details + genuine willingness to help. I wish I would meet Dr. Singh sooner and start following his treatment earlier - it would have saved me a lot of side effects and wasted time.

Mr Sam Norton

Plastic Surgeon

I felt so at ease with Mr Norton. He listened to the concerns I had around my problem. Mr Norton thoroughly examined the Cyst and explained the procedure he felt would benefit me most. Very professional. On the day of the surgery I was treated exceptionally well by Mr Norton and his team. During the surgery Mr Norton operated in such a way that the scarring was kept to a minimum. The surgery a complete success. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Norton to my friend's and family. Thank you Mr Norton.

Mental Health Dietitians

Dietitian

I have been Sophie’s client for the last 6 months. In that time I have felt my relationship with food and my confidence in myself grow. She has helped me change the beliefs I hold about food and helped me on the road to recovery from anorexia. As an autistic person, I have struggled in the past with connecting with health professionals but Sophie adapts the sessions to meet my needs. She always sends notes after our sessions which is useful in making sure I keep track of what I should be doing.

The Horder Centre

Orthopaedic Surgery, Physiotherapy

I was naturally very apprehensive about the procedure but was met with friendly reassurance at every stage of the process. Everyone was very helpful, always very anxious to answer all questions, and very keen to help in any and every way. All procedures were carefully explained and it was always made sure I’d understood and was happy to proceed. I can’t speak highly enough of all the care I received from every member of staff I met at every stage of the process

Marris Medical

Pain Management, Breast Surgery, + 5 more

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.

Well Life Clinic Oxted

Allergy Medicine, Clinical Genetics, + 12 more

I had a telephone consultation with Dr Rakesh Patel today. He was kind, understanding, positive, practical and clear. He took a thorough history and was very empathetic, offering realistic suggestions on lifestyle strategies as well as medical support. I have a clear plan of action and would feel confident in recommending Dr Patel to anyone else wanting a warm, well-informed and efficient experience.

Mr Saurabh Jain

Ophthalmologist

I saw Mr Jain, and his colleague, following concerns regarding cataract surgery by another consultant. Following extensive tests Mr Jain was able to reassure me, and gave clear explanations, of his findings. Mr Jain provided helpful advice regarding managing my symptoms. His kind, gentle professionalism resulted in a very pleasant consultation.

Private GP Extra

General Practice (GP)

Dr Simon gave me a thorough explanation of my condition and any risks associated with it. He carried out all required tests and called to chat through my blood test results and to make any recommendations. Through Dr Simon’s clear explanations I’m now far more reassured about the condition, and how to deal with future occurrences. Many thanks.

The Westminster Maternity Suite

Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Fertility Medicine

I thoroughly enjoyed staying in The Westminster Maternity Suite twice, after delivering my babies. The care, cleanliness, privacy, personal space and food are fantastic. I had really enjoyed staying there for the recovery after giving birth. The views of Big Ben both times were an amazing bonus for the night feeds of my newborn.

Mr Sayed Iqbal Miakhil

Urologist

Booked in for BipolEP operation with Mr Miakhil on 3 Nov this year. I was naturally nervous but he put me at ease on the day and everything went well. I was catheter free after 48 hours and was able pee normally for the first time in years. My quality of life is so much improved following the procedure by Mr Miakhil

Miss Radhika Krishnan

Ophthalmologist

I had spent the best part of 9 months not getting any real help with my eye, but from my first visit to Miss Krishnan, I could tell she was going to find a solution for me. Within a few months it’s now so much better and I know what I need to do going forward. She was always very kind and understanding also.

Spire Wellesley Hospital

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Dentistry, + 17 more

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.

Miss Santhini Jeyarajah

General Surgeon

Excellent consultations and post surgical follow-up from Ms Santhini Jeyarajah, straight forward, clear, professional and yet really personal in her approach. An absolute pleasure, Ms Santhini Jeyarajah will look after you. I can't recommend her highly enough - put your care in her hands.

Mr Lebur Rohman
