The Catalyst Clinic

Chemical Pathology, Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, + 1 more

I can’t recommend The Catalyst Clinic highly enough. From the very first consultation, it was clear that this is a clinic operating at an entirely different level. Dr Ethan has an exceptional bedside manner — calm, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful. He takes the time to listen properly, asks the right questions, and explains complex medical concepts in a way that feels reassuring rather than overwhelming. You never feel rushed, dismissed, or spoken down to. There’s a real sense that he is tailoring care to you as an individual, not following a generic template. What stood out most was the balance between deep scientific knowledge and humanity. Dr Ethan is clearly extremely knowledgeable, but he delivers that expertise with warmth, patience, and respect. It builds immediate trust. The clinic itself feels professional, discreet, and well run, with a strong emphasis on safety, evidence-based care, and long-term health rather than quick fixes. If you’re looking for a clinician who combines cutting-edge medicine with genuine care and excellent communication, The Catalyst Clinic is outstanding.

Mr Daniel Dowen

Orthopaedic Surgeon

On admission to Sunderland Royal Hospital in February 2025 I was placed in the care of Mr. Dowen. I was in very severe pain in my right leg after a fall at home in November 2024. Despite earlier hospitalisation I had had 16 weeks without any alleviation of the pain. The care I received from Mr Dowen and his whole team was second to none. I couldn’t have been in better hands. Within a very few days Mr Dowen carried out a very complex operation which was followed by 48 hours in Intensive Care and I was soon totally without pain. The bedside manners of Mr Dowen and his team were excellent. All procedures were explained to me before they were carried out. Although they were all busy people they made me feel that they had all the time in the world for me. The aftercare I received on discharge was just as good with several outpatient visits arranged, mainly with Mr Dowen himself, so that he could keep tabs on my progress. I honestly don’t think I could have had any better care and will always be very grateful for the treatment I received.

The Salisbury Practice

Clinical Psychology, Psychology, + 1 more

I recently completed a course of CBT sessions with Dr Sharon Pettit, focusing on managing my anxiety, worry, and rumination. When I first began, I struggled significantly with social interactions, often feeling socially awkward and fixating on past conversations. My mind would race with worries about things entirely beyond my control, pushing my anxiety levels to an all-time high. It felt like I was in a constant state of fight or flight, from the moment I woke up until I went to bed, leaving me completely drained. Now, almost six months later, I've gained valuable tools to help manage my thoughts and emotions. While I wouldn’t say I’m completely cured, I feel about 75% better and am now enjoying a much happier life. I've decided to take a break from CBT for the time being, but I'm committed to returning if I notice my anxiety levels rising again.

The Women's Health GP

General Practice (GP)

Having been to several medical professionals in my life, I can honestly say the care provided by Dr Katie Cowie is exceptional. She has a great bedside manner, there is no judgement and she is, very knowledgable and understanding. Personably speaking, I would now always consult her on my journey through peri-menopause and beyond. She is well worth the cost for such excellent one to one care. I also see her for weight loss and again, for anyone contemplating medical assisted weight loss, I would always recommend going through someone like Dr Cowie. The assistance she provides with her vast knowledge on the subject is invaluable. I’m so grateful to have met her. and I recommend her to everyone I know going through any women’s health issues.

Skylight Psychiatry

Psychiatry

I had an online ADHD assessment with Bernhard Kelley-Patterson. Bernhard was very friendly and professional, I felt at ease throughout the appointment and would happily talk with him again. So far my experience with Skylight has been very positive, the wait times between communication emails are generally 3-5 days and it took approximately 8 weeks to get my first appointment after the registering my interest. Considering the NHS waiting list for an ADHD assessment is 4 years, I’d say that pretty damn good. I would highly recommend opting for Skylight through the ‘Right to Choose’ pathway via the NHS. Thanks Bernhard and thank you Skylight

Riz Ultrasound

Physiotherapy

I really appreciated being able to get a quick appointment and having my scan done by a doctor radiologist who could then explain what he saw and give me some advice. The scan was done quickly and it allowed me to promptly get the scan done for my GP. I was super pleased that the report arrived quickly, it was there in my emails before I even got home! There was a chaperone there too, the clinic was nice and the receptionist was very warm and friendly and efficient. All in all a great discovery for me as I felt the prices were very reasonable for private scans so I could use the service for regular health checks..

Spencer Private Hospital Canterbury

Pain Management, Cardiology, + 6 more

The waiting area had few chairs and not enough for the people waiting. The people around there that gave me paperwork and told me where to wait, were polite and helpful. The appointment with the consultant was really distressing, I couldn't ask questions and didn't discussed with me the plan, just set up steps without getting me involved on her treatment plan. This experience was very negative from what I expected when you go to a professional asking for advice and reviewing if your body is working well. The consultant is not on the list from next step: dr Anastasia Goumenou, gynecologist

Mr Nima Abbassi-Ghadi

General Surgeon

Mr Nima Abbassi-Ghadi treated me with care and professionalism from my very first visit, he explained everything in detail and made me aware of all the pro's and con's of having my surgery. On the day of the surgery he made me feel completely at ease about the operation and what was going to happen. At my 6 week follow up appointment he again treated me with professionalism and explained everything in detail once again. He is a credit to the hospital and if I needed any treatment again in the future I would be more than happy to have him as my consultant.

Albion Dental : Brighton

Dentistry

My son needed to have two teeth extracted prior to being fitted with braces the following month. The dentist was extremely caring - especially as the procedure proved to be quite difficult due to the large roots of the teeth being pulled. It took an hour for the first tooth to finally come out - and the dentist recommended that a second appointment be made to minimise the amount of trauma caused extracting both teeth in one go. The appointment was made while the procedure was still ongoing - which was very efficient and was a relief for my son.

London Finsbury Clinic

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine

I had a great experience at this clinic for my Botox treatment. The staff was extremely friendly, professional, and made me feel comfortable from the moment I arrived. They took the time to explain every step of the procedure clearly and answered all my questions, which really helped me feel confident and relaxed. The clinic has a very clean and welcoming atmosphere, and the results look natural and exactly what I was hoping for. I would definitely recommend this clinic to anyone looking for high quality aesthetic treatments. Thank you ,Cristina

Mr Jason Ho

Ophthalmologist

I am extremely happy with Mr. Ho's professionalism and the results of my cataract procedures. Mr. Ho is an excellent communicator with a very calm (and calming) demeanor, and helped me decide on which lenses to opt for, what goals to aim for, and what to expect based on a variety of options. Throughout the procedures he communicated with me and made sure they were as stressless as possible. I now see better than I have seen in many years, and am able to read, work on my computer, and see long distance with no glasses. Thank you Mr. Ho!

Mr Joyti Saksena

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Just had my 6 week follow up after a full knee replacement. I was seen early and after examining my knee, Mr Saksena thoroughly explained the healing process from now on regarding muscle strengthening. He checked that my physio sessions are going well and answered a couple of questions I had. It is my second knee replacement with Mr Saksena and would highly recommend him. He has a very friendly bedside manner, explains things well and I cannot thank him enough!!

Dr. Claire Agathou

General Practitioner, Primary Care Doctor

Dr. Agathou was extremely thorough during my visit. She managed to sift through my long, rather complex medical history in conversation and deliver a very detailed, accurate clinical summary. Dr. Agathou was warm, understanding, and very knowledgeable. Since my appointment, she and her Secretary, Abdulaziz, also worked hard to ensure that I have critical medication, despite supply constraints. I look forward to continuing to work with Dr. Agathou.

Mr Nawar Abdulsattar

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I saw Mr Abdulsattar in relation to my hip replacement surgery. From the very first moment he inspired confidence and put me at ease. He was calm and relaxed in his manner, which really helped. His explanations were very clear and easy to understand, and I never felt rushed at any point. I came away feeling reassured and confident in both the surgery and the care I was receiving.

Dr. Arifur Rahman

Psychiatrist

Dr Rahman is professional, incredibly knowledgable and very friendly. He has made getting an ADHD diagnosis a very easy and rewarding experience. Every concern and question I had has been explained in a way I can understand and the sessions I've had with him have cleared up years of unanswered questions and problems. I cannot recommend him enough

Dr Deepak Parasuraman

Paediatrician

Dr Parasuraman was very kind and considerate. He gave due time and attention to all my concerns and made sure he addressed all problem areas one by one in depth. He was very friendly towards my son and engaged in a lovely discussion with him. I'm very happy with his approach towards my concerns and the help he provided with diagnosis.
