Vision Scotland Edinburgh

Ophthalmology, Optometry

I have been very happy with my overall experience at Vision Scotland Edinburgh. The staff were both friendly and professional. I was well informed regarding my choices and the procedure. I have been thrilled with the result of the cataract surgery. I was given an appointment very soon after the referral. I would however like to let you know how I felt the experience on the day of the operation could have been improved. Firstly I was not sent the Post Op information which would have been most helpful to read before the procedure. Secondly I got very cold in theatre and was given a blanket but it did take me ages to warm up. It would have been better to have been given a blanket before the procedure started. There is a lot of cold water being used which does add to the chill. Thirdly I was not told to bring sunglasses for the journey home or to bring analogies both of which I would very much appreciated as I lived over a hour away. On the journey home I became extremely uncomfortable. Finally the roof of my mouth and tongue got a little burnt I think by the coffee as they must have been a little bit anaesthetised still when I had the coffee. The coffee however i have to say was absolutely welcome and the best thing along with the toasted teacake. I found it very reassuring to have a telephone number to call which I did use. I also very much appreciate the phone call from the nurse a couple of days post op. I hope you find the above comments of use. I do not wish to criticise as overall it was an extremely good experience and I would and have already recommended Vision Scotland. ( I did tell my neighbour to ask for a blanket!)

IVF Matters Fertility Clinic

Fertility Medicine

​"I highly recommend Dr. Irfana to anyone navigating the complexities of fertility treatment. After three years of trying and a failed IVF attempt elsewhere, we were unsure of our next steps or if a sibling for our child was even possible. Dr. Irfana truly felt like a godsend during a very uncertain time. ​From our very first introductory call, her expertise and confidence changed everything. She made us believe that every problem has a solution, listening patiently to every concern we had and addressing them with a clear, actionable plan. Thanks to Dr. Irfana’s dedication, we have successfully completed our family. If you are looking for a doctor who combines high-level medical skill with genuine compassion to start your journey to parenthood, she is the one to see. Also, special thanks to the staff (Sara, Alicija) for prompt responses always.

Daleswood Health

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, General Practice (GP)

Daleswood Health is like a breath of fresh air in the midst of health services in the UK. My GP tries to the best they can but frankly they just cannot be flexible and I'd spend visits trying to to fit in their calendar, leaving me waiting for a rushed 10 minute appointment only to then refer me somewhere else. Something had to change. I'm lucky enough that I can spend a little to get a great service and Daleswood Health really deliver exceptional service. My recent visit was for a mole removal. In and out within 50 minutes and the mole had been removed, fantastic service from Dr Oliver Denton and also not forgetting Mary on reception. So glad I've found them. Definitely my go to for health services and fully recommended from me.

Spencer Private Hospital Canterbury

Pain Management, Cardiology, + 6 more

The physiotherapist seemed unconcerned by the pain I have been experiencing for nearly a year. He mentioned that I had full movement and so he was not concerned. He kept saying that he would not give me another steroid injection without acknowledging that I didn’t want one. He told me to do some exercises which he showed me how to do once and gave me no paperwork or YouTube link that might assist when I got home. I tried to ask how long I should wait before I made any further action and he said there is no more treatment. I felt like an inconvenience and wish I had gone somewhere else. I would never recommend anyone to see him again. He really made me feel small and insignificant.

Newmedica Leicester

Ophthalmology

I attended an appointment with my mum as she has been referred for cataract surgery. Upon arrival we had a warm friendly welcome. When mum was called in I explained to the lady that mum is profoundly deaf and she lip read's and asked if she could look at mum when talking to her. Naz was absolutely amazing, she spoke clearly and looked at my mum when speaking and explained everything to her. Both myself and my mum were really impressed as it's not easy for my mum when people don't understand her deafness. The lady we saw after Naz was good with mum too. With our experience yesterday it put our minds at rest that mum will be helped and understood when she goes back for surgery.

Cromwell Hospital

Paediatrics, Cardiology, + 17 more

My most recent visit was for an MRI scan which occurred in in the mobile unit. My oncologist requested a full spinal scan as well as a head and neck scan. The radiographer told me that this wasn’t possible then proceeded to ask me to choose one or the other. I wasn’t qualified to make this decision as both were equally important. There was insufficient information given as to the reason for not being able to have the scans I was booked in for, which really wasn’t good enough. Having waited quite a few weeks for this appointment I am annoyed that I will have to return next week to have the spinal scan. I expect better.

Professor George Du Toit

Paediatrician

We are currently investigating food allergies in our son and had an excellent experience at this clinic. From the moment we arrived, we felt very welcome and were made to feel at home. The doctor was extremely approachable, took the time to listen carefully to our concerns, and provided the clear insights and guidance we were hoping for. We felt well supported throughout the appointment and left with a much better understanding of the next steps. We are very grateful for the care and reassurance provided and would highly recommend the clinic to other families going through a similar process.

Professor Jeremy Sanderson

Gastroenterologist

I have been with Professor Sanderson at London Digestion for more than 10 years. As always he puts you at ease, listens to your concerns and is friendly and extremely professional. He is an expert in the treatment of Crohn’s Disease and is the only specialist that I have seen in the 30+ years that I have had Crohn’s, who has really understood and treated my Crohn’s properly, hence why I continue to have him as my specialist despite no longer living in the area. I very highly recommend London Digestion, Professor Sanderson and all of his friendly staff.

Dr Sukhjinder S Nijjer

Cardiologist

I went to Dr. Nijjer as I had some symptoms I was unsure of, having recently done sinus surgery, whether they are cardiac or sinus, to make sure I was fit for my forthcoming skiing trip. Dr. Nijjer, as always, took the tome to listen to my concerns and provided me his rational expert opinion, as he always does whenever I visit him. He also ensured my GP practice provide me with the most optimal medication for which I am really grateful, as it took convincing from Dr. Nijjer for my GP to provide me with a repeat prescription for that medication.

Basuto Medical Centre

Dermatology, General Practice (GP), + 1 more

Since I joined in 2000, I have been elightened and guided every step of the journey I needed to make for and with the maintenance and improvement of my health. Dr McMichen has at all times made clear connections between any of symptoms I described and the possible pathology behind them. In addition I have always had the most considered responses to any alternatives there might have been. My experience over 26 years has left me aware of the considerable knowledge and professionalism which I have been offered on each and every visit.

Cleveland Clinic London

Vascular Surgery, Gastroenterology, + 10 more

From the initial outpatient appointment to the procedure , everything was smooth and pleasant. I didn’t have to wait long when I visited the facility and it was not difficult to book appointments for further treatment. Karla, Michele and all the nursing team were very kind , thoughtful and accommodating. The atmosphere was calm and relaxed and they didn’t leave questions unanswered. Dr Woollard was very attentive and helpful. He was reassuring and made everything clear. He was understanding and showed empathy .

Mr Damien Yeo

Ophthalmologist

Dr Yeo saw my daughter who is 10 and had been having severe headaches. I’d read that pressure in the brain could cause changes to your eyes and headaches so we sought his expert advice. He used the latest technology available to check that the pressure in her eyes was ok and this really put our minds at ease. Dr Yeo was very thorough and his manner put me and my daughter at ease. Would highly recommend seeing Dr Yeo and cannot thank him enough for the care my daughter received.

Mr Ali Abdelwahab

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Mr Ali Abdelwahab made sure I knew what he was talking about. Today's visit, i was waiting just under an hour, which isn't his fault as he has other patients with complex needs, I appreciated him not rushing me off because he may have been behind. I can't fault him one bit. I highly recommend him, he also kept asking me if I had any questions before proceeding on with the appointment. He gave me suggestions so that my injury doesn't come back, which is very much appreciated.

Mr Callumn Joe Wilson

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

Mr Wilson has seen me a couple of times now in his clinics the most recent was for a coil- I was very nervous about this due to a past experience Mr Wilson did everything he could to make it pain free , and less stressful for me he was professional and really understanding and explained everything to me in depth I feel Mr Wilson really takes the time to listen to you as a patient.

Professor Nikhil Vasdev

Urologist

My visit with Professor Vasdev was to discuss the outcomes of various tests which identified a serious lesion in one of my kidneys. My meeting with this exceptionally experienced physician ensured I knew he would progress my treatment with speed, thoroughness and skill to offer me the best prognosis. I am sure I could not be in better hands.

Professor Richard Hindley

Urologist

The first follow up clinic post operation was satisfactory and Professor Hindley answered several questions I had about my recovery . I think the recovery period was longer than I expected . I’m not used to taking things easy . A further consultation was scheduled for March when hopefully everything will be back to normal .
