Early January 2024, I was diagnosed with Squamous carcinoma in my neck and I had gone through a radiotherapy / chemotherapy treatment and recovered well by mid 2024. A year and a few months later, I discovered something in my upper left jaw and with biopsy, it’s confirmed to be cancer again. I searched for a Maxillofacial surgeon and several of my friends and doctors recommended Dr. Mustansir Alibhai as one of the best in this area. I went to see him and from day one I saw how he is kind and taking good care of his patients. Within a week, he did all required scans and tests and booked the surgery. The surgery was so complicated because of my previous radiotherapy treatment. The surgery took about 14 hours, almost double the normal time, and Dr. Alibhai along with his team had to deal with several complications during the surgery. He dealt with these complications in a very professional way as I heard from his colleagues after the surgery. I think that Allah gave me a new opportunity in this day to come back to life through the help of Dr. Alibhai. After the surgery, I saw a caring person who was taking care of all the details along with his team. I spent 6 days at intensive care and then another 5 days at a normal room. During this period, Dr. Alibhai and his team took very good care of me. The results of the surgery were superb. The pathology report mentioned the success of the surgery in fully removing the tumor with a very good margin. Therefore, my oncologist along with Dr. Alibhai and the team decided that there is no need for further radiotherapy treatment, given the fact that I already had radiotherapy before. The recovery process is a little long because of the sophisticated surgery in my mouth and my leg. I can’t tell you enough about how careful and kind Dr. Alibhai is in following up with me and managing the recovery process in the best possible way to make sure that I return to my normal situation and normal life in due time. He is a real human before being a doctor and this is what makes the difference. I highly recommend Dr. Alibhai for similar cases and I am quite sure he will do a great job. I wish him all the best in his career and his life.

I recently underwent two surgeries with Dr Sujatha Kalburgi to treat fibroids that had been severely impacting my quality of life. From the moment she saw my scan, she acted immediately, arranging surgery and prescribing medication to help reduce the size beforehand. After spending two years waiting for action through the NHS, her swift response, professionalism, and genuine urgency were incredibly reassuring. Throughout the entire process, Dr Kalburgi was warm, attentive, and clear in explaining every stage of the journey. She answered all my questions with patience, made herself available when I needed clarity, and helped me feel completely supported and confident in my care. The surgeries were a success, and the transformation to my daily life has been remarkable. I am truly grateful for her expertise, compassion and decisive care. She has changed my life for the better.

Palace Gate Practice

General Practice (GP)

I came for travel vaccines and the team could not have been better. Prompt replies from both Gina on reception, and Dr Emma Noble, asking about my travel plans and countries, appointment arranged and before you know it, I am fully prepped & ready to go. Dr Paul Wiseman was masterful. I had to get 4 different vaccines and barely felt anything. Very personable, put me at my ease. Pointed me to the websites recommended by Department of Health / Foreign affairs for most up to date advice and important steps I can take as a traveller (hand washing, mosquito nets etc). A great service from a first class team. Thank you so much.

Recent visit on 20 September was wonderful. Operation was a great success. Only minimal time in hospital but all bases covered. Marvellous surgeon doctors and nurses. All very friendly and professional. An excellent experience pain control was very effective allowing for substantial movement following the op. I really cannot speak highly enough of all personnel it was a really really excellent experience. In on Saturday and out on Sunday with all necessary medications and excellent instructions for ongoing exercises and general care and attention. It has been a very positive experience

Dr. Gaya Nathan

General Practitioner

Dr Nathan is a very pleasant GP, who listens and is thorough and meticulous in her reasoning regarding what is required for my needs. I particularly appreciate that she makes me an integral part of the choices made: she explains and discusses her advice on referrals, and then afterwards she takes the time to answer any questions on the consultants recommendations or terminology in the consultant's report, and further clarify the pros and cons of recommended procedures; she does this patiently and without condescension.

It's a rollercoaster. It's not easy and you can expect to be up and down constantly within each day but you have to remember why you are here and embrace your chance to recover. Be where you are meant to be on time, be open minded but filter out issues that you not yours . Don't expect the timetable to always be correct. Food is not great and everyone's feelings, behaviours and attitudes fluctuate. Be honest with yourself and others. Learn to stay calm, be considerate and kind.

Dr Kuldeep S Cheent

Gastroenterologist

I have been under Dr Cheent’s care for 4 years and have always been extremely happy and impressed with his care, understanding and support. Every occasion that I have needed Dr Cheent he has been empathetic and caring. He has also been very efficient and prompt with scheduling any procedures, treatment and follow up. His PA Louise, is always very efficient, caring and accommodating when I needed appointments quickly. Overall a fantastic medical experience, thank you.

Dr Murli Krishna

Pain Management Specialist

Dr krisma explained everything clearly he took me step by step so I understood all about the procedure, when I asked questions he took time to answer and listened and even throughout the procedure he reassured me and kept me calm . I had a follow up call to see how everything was going and how I was feeling and even then he took the time to listen. So if I had to rate Dr krisma It would be 11 out of 10.

I was kept waiting for around 40 mins. No-one informed me - I had to go and ask. The doctor was keen to hurry me because he "had to be somewhere else" He didn't examine my hips and lower back. Just said I had "very arthritic hips" which is not what Id been told before, and wasn't interested in any other possible alternatives to hip replacement. I felt dimissed and not properly heard.

Helped my mum considerably and continues to do so, alongside your NHS GP it is worth having Dr Omars service to seek clarity from both and make your own decisions, having a second opinion never hurt always share as much history as possible around your concern, especially if your case is complex expect to pay the right price in that case and you will receive!
