Mr Ivan Tomasi

General Surgeon

Mr Tomasi saved my life,literally. The gallstones were diagnosed in 2008 and I put up with the chronic pain until April 2025 when I finally told my GP,and had an ultrasound scan. I was seen in outpatient clinic in August. The doctor was going to see me again in 6 months. Then I had Pancreatitis in October and spent 5 days in Cumberland ward. That's when Mr Tomasi comes in. He volunteered to take on what I was told was a tricky case. I knew it too. I hid it from the doctors for years because I foolishly wanted to have my knee replacements first. That decision could havw cost my life. Thankfully, on November 13 Mr Tomasi and his team performed the long overdue cholecystectomy. He spent 20 minutes preop talking to me about all possible outcomes. He was very honest with me. Which I really appreciate. The gallstones were overflowing. I was in pain and had swollen glands. So I know thus wasn't a straight forward cholecystectomy. Mr Tomasi was willing to put his life / career on the line for me. I researched his background beforehand!!, so I knew I was going to make it. What he found during surgery was worse than we both expected. My gallbladder had perforated and was leaking. It wasn't an easy job. I was in theatre for 3 hours, and came back to tell my story. The NHS, again saved my life, ie, Mr Tomasi. I give him the permission to use my surgery as a case study, if he ever needs to. Tell the world how my abdomen was covered in gooey "chocolate!!',and I still left the hospital 5 days later. We just need more medical advancement and better incentives to keep the likes of Mr Tomasi from going private. Thank you Sir, for your contribution to humanity.

Mr Amr Hawary

Urologist

Mr Hawary is be far the best medical consultant I have ever experienced, his empathy and compassion for his patients is simply exemplary. I was in a terrible state when I went to see Mr Hawary who then reassured me, did not make me feel like I was over reacting he instead empathised with me and I felt so much better. I have never seen a more compassionate and passionate consultant in my life. If consultants could follow his lead I am very sure this could revolutionise the medical world. This may seem over the top, it’s not. He is a wonderful consultant who really genuinely cares about his patients he cares about the pain I experience and asked very detailed questions to ensure I walked away feeling better, and able to cope he did not at any point marginalise how I felt, he is an impactful knowledgeable caring consultant and I hope I never see him again in the nicest possible way, but I will not hesitate to recommend him to anyone who faces the same issue I did. He has had a a very big impact on me and I am sincerely grateful for the caring and compassionate treatment I have received from Mr Hawary. I would not even hesitate to go to him again should I need anything. He is amazing at his job and I hope he gets the sincere recognition he deserves. If I could give him a knighthood I would. Outstanding patient care, outstanding sense of humour, which always helps in these hard times, and a real genuine compassion for his patients I could not has asked for anything more. Remarkable consultant who personifies everything you want in a consultant helping you to get better.

Spire St Anthony's Hospital

Dermatology, General (Internal) Medicine, + 21 more

I had a lumbar microdiscectomy at St Anthony’s and the care I received was exceptional from start to finish. The staff were incredibly kind, patient and attentive throughout my stay. In the post-operation recovery area, the Irish nurse who looked after me was especially wonderful. I’m so sorry I can’t remember her name — I was still a bit loopy after the anaesthetic — but she was unbelievably kind, gentle and reassuring at a moment when I really needed it. On the ward, Rose was also fantastic. She checked on me regularly, made sure I was comfortable, and was so warm and supportive. Her kindness made the first night after surgery much easier. Overall, the team at St Anthony’s made what could have been a very stressful experience feel calm and safe. I’m really grateful for the care I received and would highly recommend the hospital.

Professor Richard Simcock

Oncologist

I have been under the care of Professor Simcock for nearly a year following my breast cancer diagnosis. He is an excellent consultant that always takes the time to explain everything thoroughly and in a way that is clear and easy to understand. He also allows as much time as necessary each consultation to answer any further questions and listens and addresses them. He is up to date with all relevant recent research/ studies and is completely patient focused. It is also worth mentioning that he has an excellent medical secretary which means appointments, communication and contacting him if necessary is always prompt and straightforward . I feel very lucky to be under his care for my treatment as it has made a very stressful time much easier as I have total confidence in him as a consultant.

Pause and Co Healthcare

General Practice (GP)

I reached out to Nadira at one of the hardest times of my life and literally had no support/help from her whatsoever. As she continually reminds everyone she is a full time mother and a full time NHS GP I don’t understand how she thinks she has the time to open a menopause clinic as she has shown me. Takes weeks to reply to any correspondence. Also she certainly has NHS GP mentality on any HRT. She has no up to date knowledge and is very nervous and unsure whilst in a consultation with her. She quoted lots of things that were wrong and outdated as new evidence has suggested. I would not waste your money and go to Menopause specialist who is only doing this full time.

Spire Leicester Hospital

Dermatology, Ear Nose & Throat Surgery (ENT/Otolaryngology), + 3 more

I recently had surgery at Spire Leicester Hospital. The medical staff were amazing, friendly, informative and they really helped put me at ease throughout my stay. However, the administrative side needs be improved, as it took several weeks of chasing before I finally received my booking confirmation. Additionally, after my large open inguinal hernia operation, I was discharged without being offered a wheelchair and had to walk down from the second floor to leave the hospital, which was difficult so soon after surgery. Overall, excellent clinical care, but room for improvement in administration and patient support on discharge.

Mr Jeremy Hoffman

Ophthalmologist

Everyone in the Eye department at Stoke Mandeville and Wycombe Hospitals were amazing - sympathetic , patient and knowledgable. The swift attention and correct medication that I received has, I’m certain, helped me to preserve the sight that I need for my profession. Thank you so much. I was very fortunate to be treated by Consultant Jeremy Hoffman. He made time to answer all my questions, had a wonderful manner and is clearly one of the most qualified and expert specialists in this field. I hope to never have a repeat of a corneal ulcer, but I do know that I was really in the best hands, for which I’m very grateful.

Cooden Medical Group

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Dermatology, + 4 more

My first appointment was cancelled by the clinic this was after telling me to pay the fee upfront and re booked two weeks later. I arrived on time for my appointment and was told there would be a delay again. After waiting for sometime I asked the staff to find out what the delay was I was then seen by the clinician half an hour later. My experience with the clinician I felt was not worth the fee. I was not examined correctly I was not given any advice as to how to deal with the issue and the letter I received afterwards was not very accurate or informative. So I would not go back again or recommend.

Mr Christopher Bailey

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I feel incredibly lucky to have had Mr Bailey for my longed for knee surgery. I’ve had two lateral partial knee replacements, one in January and one at the end of September. From my first appointments to my last Mr Bailey explained everything in a way that alleviated any worries I may have had. I was able to return to teaching pilates within 6 weeks of both ops. I can honestly say this surgery has given me back the active life I want to be living . I can highly recommend Mr Bailey and the whole team at The Nuffield.

Mr Lachlan Carter

Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon

I had an excellent experience with Dr. Lachlan Carter. He carried out a very thorough examination and took the time to clearly explain my condition in a way that was easy to understand. His professionalism and attention to detail gave me great confidence, and I truly appreciated how patient and reassuring he was throughout the consultation. Dr. Carter’s ability to combine medical expertise with clear communication makes him an outstanding doctor, and I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking quality care.

MansMatters

Urology

I have been rather insecure about my performances in the past year. To be honest, I always blamed my family woes and in a way, I was confident that the blue pill would work it out. Well.. after a divorce and lots of struggling, I felt my manhood was gone by the time I hit 41yo. I tried to put myself together and had a chat with the people at the clinic. They never made me feel weird or uncomfortable, and after the second session of shockwave, my game changed and I can finally say I got my life back.

Cathedral Eye Clinic

Ophthalmology, Optometry

After I got a PCO in my left eye I needed laser surgery. I had not been told this was common after Lens replacement by the opticians who did did that surgery so I was very worried about my sight. I contacted Cathedral Eye Clinic who assured me it was common and was easily corrected. They made an appointment and in less than an hour my sight was restored. I was dealth with by very friendly and professional staff and would happily recommend Cathedral Eye Clinic to anyone .

Mr Sivaraman Subramanian

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Dr Subramanian is an amazing surgeon. I am 4 weeks post surgery and throughout my time with him he has been very thorough in terms of ensuring that I understand the procedure being undertaken, what was done in surgery, how they can fix it and what expectations I should have as a brief timeline going forward. He is extremely friendly and makes you feel very comfortable. I am grateful to have been a patient that was put into his care.

Professor Matt Lechner

ENT Surgeon

From the first appointment, it was a great pleasure to work with Matt Lechner. We tried non surgical options for a few months and once we confirmed that it doesn’t help, we decided to do Septorhinoplasty and turbinoplasty surgery. The surgery itself went smoothly and the recovery was quick. Just one week and then you can already feel the results. One month after the surgery everything is healed. Big thanks! I wish I did this earlier!

Daleswood Health

Exceptionally welcoming staff and beautiful facilities. Dr Oliver Denton is so kind, caring and supportive. To be spoken to as if you do matter and that you’re not wasting anyone’s time really does mean so much. He explained everything to me in a calm and thorough manner and I truly felt so listened to and at ease. Such a refreshing experience and I feel so very thankful
