Abbington House

Holistic Therapy, Psychiatry, + 1 more

I walked into Abbington House at rock bottom physically and mentally. The staff were very friendly, understanding, caring and reassuring. Making me feel calm and at ease. I have made significant progress and I am leaving a different person with new tools and knowledge to help me succeed on the journey. The Abbington House clients made me feel welcome and included, extremely friendly and I am grateful to have made many friends in the 5 weeks I have been here. My incredible therapist listened, un-judgmental and emphatic to me, who's care was brilliant and I will not forget the unreplaceable advice given to me. My advice from a former patient here is if you are wiling to work hard for your recovery, you have all the tools, great professionals and environment available to you.

ObGyn Matters

Obstetrics & Gynaecology

I was scheduled for a laparoscopic bilateral cystectomy. My disappointment stems from a critical failure in communication immediately prior to surgery.Minutes before the procedure, and while already prepped, I was informed by an unfamiliar doctor—not my primary gynecologist —that a bilateral salpingectomy (fallopian tube removal) was being added to the plan. This major change, involving the removal of a reproductive organ, was sprung on me at the most vulnerable moment, leaving absolutely no time to process this significant loss or ensure fully informed consent. It felt as though my fallopian tubes were taken without my proper agreement. A change in procedure of this magnitude must be communicated well in advance, not moments before surgery.

Mr Shivakumar Shankar

Orthopaedic Surgeon

My knee replacement operation was explained and discussed as Mr Shankar wasnt sure if partial or full replacement was required but he'd get a better understanding once knee was open. We agreed if there was any doubt that full knee was my preference but Id use his experience and skill to decide on best outcome. The surgery was completed with minimum pain only needed pain relief for 3 days post operation, and outside of swelling there was no brusing which the physio said would be down to the skill of surgeon. The care at Spire Hartswood was fantastic pre & post operation. Im two weeks post op and apart from minor swelling, the bend and overall knee look and feel great.

Kingsbridge Diagnostic and Treatment Centre

Diagnostics & Testing, Gastroenterology, + 4 more

Had Cataracts removed in July and then September the staff and Dr Jothi was excellent and couldn’t wish for any better care, follow up phone calls on the day after to check if all was ok such a great procedure on both occasions and no pain at all as everything was explained. The eye sight is now great with all the colours all being clear and now I just need reading glasses to see stuff up close ,have worn glasses for the past 60 years and find it funny not having to were glasses permanently. I would thourghly recommend KingsBridge and their staff as all was very kind and looked after your needs on every visit, One thing no pain .

Spencer Private Hospital Margate

Pain Management, Audiology, + 12 more

Very efficient. I delayed my operation date and was advised that I’d be in active monitoring for a further 6 months. I had a call one hour after my initial email asking about the deferral so very good customer service. I called before my deferral date and was received in a very friendly way. I expressed my concern about having the knee replacement surgery and I was offered a date to see Mr Murthy to fit in with my commitments. The appointment was very good and now I’m not having the surgery but feel confident that I can go back into the system again and see Mr Murthy when I need to. All very effective and reassuring

Mr Anwar Jafri

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I got referred to Mr Jafri while I was in terrible pain with my hip. After having xrays he said he would replace my hip. I honestly couldn't have been looked after any better, the nurses were wonderful. And yes after surgery it was painful but nothing like the pain I had been going through. MrJafri explained everything in layman's terms all the way through. I couldn't thank him enough, he gave me my life back. I went for physio and did my exercises, you only get out of it what you put in, but so worth it. I still do my excercises but I have full mobility and i honestly feel wonderful🥰. Thank you Mr Jafri x

Spire Liverpool Hospital

General (Internal) Medicine, Cardiology, + 17 more

I would not choose Spire as a private patient. The nursing staff were fabulous but the overall experience was poor. I feel that since they now take 80% nhs patients then the overall standards have dropped. After my operation I ordered an evening meal that didn’t materialise and after starving for over 24 hours was able to get a chicken sandwich eventually. The breakfast was quite simply atrocious. Cold scrambled egg, awful tea, toast inedible due to being soggy. I recently had emergency surgery at Taunton NHS hospital and they were far superior to this hospital.

Dr. Omer Ahmad

Gastroenterologist

I have been in the care of Dr Omer Ahmad for a number of years now and I must to say he is one of, if not the best consultants I have had the pleasure of meeting. Each time I meet him I come away feeling positive. There are some times in life when you need to feel like you are in a safe, knowledgeable and experienced set of hands, and this Dr Omer provides in abundance. From a thorough explanation of the procedure, to witnessing his beady eye hunt down those hard to find colon polyps and finally reassuring you of the findings, the whole experience was excellent!

Avni Touch

Fertility Medicine, Osteopathy

Avni is absolutely brilliant and I cannot recommend her enough. She started treated me during pregnancy but I have continued to see her after. Avni is really caring and intuitive and the only osteopath that I have been to who really manages to address any pain that I have been experiencing. She doesn't insist that you come back week after week, unless the treatment specifically requires a few sessions. She takes a holistic approach to wellness and provides really useful tips and recommendations that have helped me in all aspects of life.

Daleswood Health

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, General Practice (GP)

"I recently had a minor surgery at Daleswood Health performed by Dr. Oliver Denton, and I couldn't be happier with the care I received. Dr. Denton was cordial, confident, and methodical in his approach, which immediately put me at ease. His professionalism and bedside manner were exemplary, making a potentially daunting experience much more comfortable. I'd highly recommend Dr. Denton and Daleswood Health to anyone needing medical care. Thank you, Dr. Denton, for your excellent care!"

Lanthorn Clinic

Diagnostics & Testing, Imaging (Scans), + 4 more

I had an injury last year on my left calf alongside recurring main in my right foot so wanted to get them checked. Dr Lord effectively assessed my calf, showed a very small tear, and then looked at my feet and told me there’s minor thickening in one of the tendons, which wouldn’t require any intervention but recommended physio for both including some effective stretching. Now I’ve got my report I can give to my physio and monitor it more effectively ACTUALLY knowing what’s wrong.

Mr Jonathan Kosy

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Every step in the pre-op and op process was meticulously prepared and undertaken with total thoroughness. Every question I raised was dealt with in professional detail. I wish to thank Dr Kosy, his administrative staff, his nurses and the physio team (under Felicity) for making such helpful progress with my hitherto troublesome knee. I could not have wished for better or more professional treatment from early consultations through the various recovery stages, until completion.

Mr Shafiq Chughtai

General Surgeon

Mr Chughtai gave me a lot of information in relation to the procedure, and he was very accessible when I had questions and worsening of symptoms before my original surgery date, bringing surgery forward after admission to NHS A&E departments. He put me at ease throughout and undertook additional exploratory measures to rule out any additional complications. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience

Dr. Lorraine Kemp

General Practitioner

This was my first time having any treatment so was very apprehensive but Lorraine was really lovely and listened to what areas of my face I wanted help with. She did not push any unnecessary treatments and catered personally to me. The procedure of fillers was pretty painless and the results have been amazing and what I wanted, would definitely recommend.

Dr. Srinivasagam Muthumeenal

Paediatrician

It was an allergy review for my son. As with all my appointments with Dr Muthumeenal she was incredibly kind and unbelievably knowledgeable. I trust every word she says. She asks questions no other doctor asks and as a result I listen and put in practice everything she advises. She is an incredible doctor and is an asset to Broomfield hospital.

Mr Prasad Patki

Urologist

A skilled surgeon/consultant that guided me through a procedure that was necessary. I had a great deal of anxiety leading up to diagnosis and the surgery itself, but Dr. Patki provided expert care and resolved the issue perfectly. I only wish I would have met him 30 years earlier to help try and resolve the issue then.
