Over all I was treated very well and staff were very pleasant. Pre-op literature was vague and not geared to the patient's individual procedure. It was all generalisation and I had to telephone the booking line to ask was mine an overnight stay as I needed to organise accommodation for my husband as we lived a good distance away. Organisational and communicational lines could be improved. At my pre -op appt, the nurses at first weren't sure why I was there until I told them and then when I asked questions, they both gave conflicting answers. It did not inspire me. When I arrived on the day, the nurse doing my induction said about taking a pregnancy test and then asked "Or have you had a hysterectomy?' I looked and smiled and said that was why I was there so she had not familiarised herself with my information although she was very good afterwards. It seemed all very quick with a nurse, doctor and physio seeing me in quick succession and then me being taken to surgery quickly. I did ask the nurse for me to speak to Dr Obrycki, as I wanted to be sure of the procedure as the last time I had talked to him was in January. Indeed Dr Obrycki did come and talk to me in theatre. He and the central nurse and the anasethetist were absolutely excellent; calm, professional, caring and sincere. Perfect. I did tell them that patients are just another procedure for them but I fully appreciated their kindness and skill. In recovery I had a 1:1 nurse who was reassuring and caring; I think she was called Morag. I had lost more blood than anticipated and I was very weak and very sore, but she was very soothing and attentive. I do remember blurred vision of Dr Obrycki and the anaesthetist coming to see me but I took nothing in that they said. I do think there should be some follow up from the consultant either to family members or the patient when they have regained full capacity. The nurses were able to say that I had lost blood etc but they weren't actually at the surgery and so we have to wait til the 6 week checkup to ask questions etc. May I just say too that going over ridges on the ground and into the lift was very sore and its something that can be overlooked but every wee bump, I felt, having had the hysterectomy but I know we have to be transferred back to the room. May I say the nurses were very good in letting my husband be there for me after surgery even though it was late - it was very reassuring and soothing to see a familiar face so I would encourage that. I had an awful painful, sick night but CarolAnne nursed me through it brilliantly. I cannot praise her enough and I would wish for her to be acknowledged. I was not in a good place and she worked with meds and injections and putting the bed up and down and I thought she would be getting annoyed with me but never once did I see her mutter or make a face. She was a superstar for me when I needed it; caring, attentive, always looking to see how she could help etc The next day, I waited on an iron infusion which had to come from Belfast which took a while, but the nurses dealing with me and the ladies who brought the food and tea etc were really lovely. I don't think one night is sufficient for a hysterectomy although I know beds are precious. I was offered to stay another night as the iron was late in coming but my husband was already there and there was no sense him driving home but if I had known I was in longer, our plans would have been different. But I want to say a huge thank you to all concerned as this procedure will change my daily life; please know that even though its a job for many, its a life changing for the patients. Thank you very much

Moorfields Private Eye Hospital

Ophthalmology

I booked for single eye cataract surgery after my sight had degraded to the point where it was significantly affecting everyday activities. As a monocular patient I was exceptionally anxious, and so decided to seek out a surgeon with considerable experience in complex cases. I chose Mr Maurino and am so glad that I did. We discussed the options at length and I felt he guided me to exactly the right lens choice for my situation. The surgery took place some ten days later and, despite my apprehension, the procedure was straightforward throughout. Mr Maurino was reassuring and attentive from start to finish. The results have changed my life beyond all expectations. I now see vivid colour and my sight in the operated eye has since been confirmed as 20/20. Words cannot adequately describe my gratitude, there is simply no greater gift than sight. My sincere thanks to Mr Maurino and the entire team at Moorfields.

The experience at the Cleveland Clinic in Portland Place is always excellent. The friendliness and consummate professionalism of all the team is a real credit to the organisation. Highly competent clinicians and wonderful nursing and technical staff. I attended the practice for my annual health check. Everything was extremely well organised, waiting times were minimal. The tests were all carried out by first class health care staff from phlebotomy to the cardiac technician who carried out my stress ECG. I was given clear information and the tests performed in exemplary fashion. The cardiac technician provided running updates on my various cardiac functions during the test which was very useful. My long-standing GP Nick Sawyer is a superb clinician and diagnostician who is thorough, informative, and exceptionally skilled. As always he provided me with a very complete and informative health examination.

Dr Matthew E Faircloth

Cardiologist

My experience with Dr Faircloth was a genuine and very pleasant experience. He listened to my concerns with care and I did not feel rushed. I was extremely nervous waiting for my appointment as sometimes I feel I do not explain myself properly, however in the first instance I felt at east talking to Dr Faircloth. His approach was professional, calm, engaging and friendly. I genuinely left my initial appointment feeling safe in his expertise and knowledge. After my investigations he put my mind at rest and reassured me. I would recommend Dr Faircloth to anyone that requires his expertise in this field. I would also like to extend my thanks to his wonderful team: Deepa who made me feel comfortable and at ease during my echocardiogram, and Deborah, his secretary, who responded to my emails promptly and communicated very efficiently. Thank you to the entire team.

I would like to share my positive experience with your physiotherapy clinic. I completed 13 sessions, and I am very pleased with the results. When I first came in, I was treated as an urgent case due to severe pain in my left arm and numbness extending to my fingers. Thanks to your professional care, my condition has improved significantly, and I am now about 93% recovered. I highly recommend your clinic with confidence. The treatment was carried out professionally, and I would especially like to thank Claudiu, my physiotherapist, for his excellent work and dedication. Thank you for your support and care!

Dr Gareth Corbett

Gastroenterologist

Dr Corbett deserves 6/5 stars! I cannot begin to thank him enough for how much he's helped me. I have been struggling with something for the past 13 years and been dismissed by endless doctors and made to cope with my symptoms. After 1 consultation with Dr Corbett he believed he knew what could be causing my symptoms and gave me a very effective treatment. I am now able to live my life again and I am so incredibly grateful! He is so caring, knowledgeable, makes you feel heard, and is simply one of the best doctors I have ever come into contact with. Thank you again Dr Corbett.

Mr Sanjay Mantry

Ophthalmologist

I had been recommended to Mr. Mantry as I have a cornea condition as well, and he is a cornea specialist who also does cataracts. On first meeting him, my impression was of someone rather intense, and very focused. He fully understood my situation, and explained to me the need for delicacy in using ultrasound where Fuchs' dystrophy is present. At my checkup, a week later, I was told that the endothelium of my cornea had less swelling after the cataract surgery than was often the case. He took particular care not to worsen one condition while dealing with the other.

I find the consultation I had with my shoulder consultant is quick. I am overwhelmed with jargons at the time. But, all are clear from the report he sent. I am very please on the report. The specialist have explained well to me before conducting the procedure. However, it would be so nice, if this would be included in the paper I signed for consent on performing the procedure. Good thing the procedure seems to be working so great. :) The diagnose of the consultant seems to be proven correct, and I am very please how my shoulder is getting better.

From the moment I arrived I felt at ease. The lady on reception was great and explained what I needed to do from filling out the paperwork to explaining where to toilets and drink station were and to which consultation room I would be seen in. Didn’t wait to long to see Mr Sedra (was actually earlier as I had arrived early) he was polite, friendly and professional. He examined me and was asking relevant questions and within minutes I could tell he worked out the problems and decided on the route he’d take to alliviate the pain I’m in.

Dr Raiman is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and approachable, and I really appreciated the time that he took to explain his diagnosis and what might be causing the issue. I didn’t feel rushed at all, and Dr Raiman was happy to answer my questions in a way that was clear and straightforward. It made a big difference feeling like I fully understood what was going on. Overall, I’d definitely recommend him if you’re looking for a sports and medicine doctor in London who’s both professional and approachable.

Mr Zeiad El Gizawy

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I couldn’t be more grateful for Mr El Gizawy’s support and experience. I have been in chronic pain for many years and been back and forth to the drs/hospital and was discharged being called an enigma. I then found Mr El Gizawy and with one look at my scans he diagnosed me straight away and thanks to him, I had a surgery and now all the pain is gone! After years of suffering, I can now be an active mum again! Thank you! You are always such a pleasure to interact with and very informative.

Mr TK JONATHAN CHAN

Ophthalmologist

I was thoroughly diagnosed, briefed and prepared for my cataract eye surgery by Dr Chan and other medical staff at the Spire Shawfair eye clinic. I was highly satisfied with all aspects of the medical treatment, including preparation, actual surgery and post-surgery support. Dr Chan is an excellent surgeon and also very skilled in explaining procedures and outcomes in a caring and relaxed manner. Other medical staff were also most professional and friendly in their actions.

Tests have been quickly arranged and carried out. My ongoing assessment has been driven by data from tests Mr Khan has arranged and also carried out. Mr Khan has a very reassuring professional manner.

Dr Paul Ferguson

Haematologist

Saw Dr Ferguson this morning at Wolverhampton Nuffield Hospital. He was very understanding of my situation regarding ongoing recovery from DVT. He considered the circumstances and was thorough in his diagnosis and explanation of the condition. His advice regarding continued recovery, and planning around future travel and health were very reassuring. Exactly the outcome I was hoping for.
