Mr Tapan Sircar

General Surgeon

I first met Mr Sircar after being diagnosed with Lobular carcinoma breast cancer. I was obviously very scared and very anxious about how my future would look and what treatment I would be offered. I can honestly say that straight away Mr Sircar made me feel at ease and most importantly safe. He was respectful, gentle and genuinely caring, my anxious nature makes me joke a lot and thankfully Mr Sircar would laugh along with me helping make the whole experience feel more comfortable. Mr Sircar explained everything clearly, in a way that I understood and so that I could retain it. Mr Sircar gave me all the options along with his recommendations, he truly listened to me and as my tests and treatment continued I felt he knew what I would prefer before I had to say anything. I truly believe He did exactly what was right not just for my health but also for my family. I had a masectomy and reconstruction of my right breast with lymph nodes biopsy along with a reduction of my left breast. A few weeks later I required an axillary lymph nodes clearance after cancer was found in the biopsy. For both surgeries Mr Sircar explained everything in clear details and made sure I was fully aware of any risks that may come with the procedure. Natural I was nervous but again He gave me plenty of reassurance and I felt like I was safe in his hands. Which clearly I was as surgeries went exactly to plan and I'm happy to say that the healing process was equally as successful. At each follow up appointment he was just as attentive, listened to any concerns and acted accordingly weather that was words for reassurance, examination, advice for treatment and so forth. I would 1000% recommend anyone to Mr Sircar and his team and am happy to continue my treatment with my oncologist he sign posted me to.

Review of Kingsbridge Hospital ,Ballykelly. My experiences here for a total hip replacement could not have been better . Checking in was so simple : my room was ready and was excellent .The admitting nurse explained what would happen in the first 30/40 minutes: bloods ,temp ,BP ,weight etc . Shortly thereafter another Nurse completed a detail booklet about my meds.and allergies etc. My wife joined me during this but she was able to leave after a short time as the procedure was imminent . My surgeon and anathetist called to reassure me and go through what was going to happen .i got dressed in gown ,hat and socks and was walked to the Theatres .The nurse in charge of preparing me for the block and sedation was very reassuring and entirely competent bearing in mind I was dehydrated and it was difficult to access veins . He brought me into theatre where he and the anaesthetist did their part . I deliberately use the word “ reassuring” and it is 100% accurate . I remember nothing of the procedure and woke in the Revovery ward where a nurse stayed with me until I was transferred to my room .Thereafter nurses constantly attended me and again first rate treatment in the friendliest of fashion . All in all a much better experience than I had anticipated .Some names that I remember : Fionnula , Emer , Grainne

Dr Stephan Brincat

Nephrologist

It's rare to find a doctor who combines such sincere professionalism with the refined, gentle manners of a true gentleman. Doctor Brincat is remarkably attentive: he spent all the time I needed to ensure my entire medical history was heard, as well as asking questions, calmly and carefully connecting all the dots. The consultation was a reassuring and nice experience, characterised by a wonderful personality and even some lighthearted moments, while maintaining a focused and professional approach. ​His efficiency is equally impressive as he and his assistant provide impeccable, reliable communication via both phone and email. I was particularly struck by how quickly he coordinated my care, arranging for tests and helping me to schedule a visit with a consultant of a different specialisation in literally no time. Everything was sorted and organised within just a few days. ​It is incredibly heartening to encounter someone who clearly finds so much purpose in his work and treats his patients with such genuine care!

Dentistry @ Oceana Boulevard

Dental Care, Dentistry

I chose Dentistry Oceana Boulevard after months of research and my god am I glad I did. I have not been to the dentist in a good 12-15 years due to a phobia developing from a bad experience, so seeing that Dr Kendal had the dental phobia certification, it immediately put me at ease. I visited the practice and had a sit down consultation with Jade, who explained all the processes with starting my journey with them which followed by a further chat with Dr Kendal. My phobia was so severe that I couldn’t even sit in the dental chair, but with Ian’s patience, guidance and kind words, I managed to do it by the end of the appointment. The following appointment I saw Sam, who carried out a hygiene service and provided Dr Kendal with the outcome. I have now had 3 sessions with Dr Kendal consisting of 3 fillings per appointment, restoring my teeth back to how they should be. I can honestly say, he has changed my life. All the staff members are incredible and make you feel like family. I couldn’t recommend them enough.

Dr Matthew Knight

Respiratory Doctor

I was so pleased that I had gone to see Dr Knight (after what turned out to be an incorrect NHS diagnosis, which left me with a lot of anxiety and no follow-up except a prescription for the wrong medication). I feel very confident that my condition has now been correctly diagnosed, after very thorough testing, and feel happy with the treatment plan, (having been very unhappy with the one given by my GP surgery's respiratory nurse). I was particularly pleased to know that Dr Knight doesn't prescribe medication unless it's actually necessary. If I hadn't gone to him, and had followed the GP surgery's advice, I would have been on the wrong medication for the rest of my life. I would highly recommend Dr Knight. He listens, which I'm afraid not all consultants do, and explains everything very clearly. If I have any further respiratory issues in the future I would definitely go back to Dr Knight.

Mr Sulaiman Alazzawi

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I had revision knee surgery with Mr Sulaiman Alazzawi and I’m extremely grateful for the care I received. I understand revision procedures are more complex and not all joint replacement surgeons undertake them, so I felt genuinely reassured when I was referred to him. From the outset, Mr Alazzawi was clear and thorough in explaining why revision surgery can be more demanding than a primary replacement and that recovery can take longer (which helped me set realistic expectations). The surgery itself was handled with outstanding skill. At my six-week follow-up, Mr Alazzawi was pleased with my progress, including wound healing and the range of motion in my knee. His approach is professional, reassuring, and patient-focused, and I felt well supported with aftercare throughout. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Mr Alazzawi to anyone needing revision knee surgery and expert specialist care.

Dr Venkat Mahesh

Gastroenterologist

Very safe doctor. I was transferred from Blackpool to Blackburn to have ERCP procedure, as I had pancreaitis from gallstones. They couldn't complete the procedure in Blackpool and I was in lot of pain. Then the doctor explained that ERCP procedure is only done if there is a stone and he did an endo ultrasound before which showed no stones, byt my pancreas was very inflamed. He found stones in my gallbladder and got the surgeon to remove this in a few days. I am slowly getting better. But, then, I wondered why he didnt do ercp for which i was transferred. Later, chatgpt explaination was exactly what this doctor explained. I am very impressed with him,

Newmedica Leeds

Ophthalmology

I recently visited Newmedica Leeds several times for an initial assessment for cataract surgery, for the surgeries themselves and for post-op reviews. On each occasion, all of the staff I met were professional and friendly. Everything was explained to me at each stage and I had full confidence in the team who were looking after me. In particular I would like to mention Mr Aldrin Khan the surgeon who gave me the opportunity to discuss the various types of lens implants and answered all of my questions about cataract surgery so that I felt very well prepared before the actual procedures.

Mr Ahmed-Ramadan Sadek

Neurosurgeon

I have had symptoms that couldn't be explained, having seen a number of specialists, with no proper diagnosis. Mr Sadek listened well to the source of the pain, type of pain and during which activities. He undertook diagnostic injections, then a second opinion on a prior consultants input (to rule things out) and then sent me for a less common scan which has given us a clear diagnosis. I appreciate his care, and consideration, and his determination to find an answer for me, and then advise me on next steps with a reputable consultant. Thank you!

Quality Dental : Fulham

Dentistry

I travel to this practice and it's well worth the journey. Dr Aradhna Gupta and her dental nurse are the perfect team they really do their best to conserve and look after your teeth and make you feel really relaxed. Plus their methods are more advanced than other dentists that I have used, true progressive dentistry. They do what's best for you not what's easiest.

Omnia Therapy - Online

Psychotherapy

I have worked with the councillor for almost a year , the service at the beginning matched us together after an in depth conversation . I think this was crucial to starting Counciling , having a Councillor who works with my specific needs was the basis to a good therapeutic relationship. Very professional service that makes me feel safe and properly listened to .

Dr Jeremy Halfhide

Dermatologist

Came in confused as to why a certain skin concern was not healing as it should and taking longer than expected. Dr. Halfhide was extremely patient and explained the problem in a simple manner with bonus drawings. After fretting the last couple of months I’m finally at ease with a good understanding about the skin condition, treatment path and realistic outlook.

MUMS - Midlands Ultrasound and Medical Services

I am incredibly grateful and impressed by the service provided. My clinician had only met me that day and advocated more for me and my conditions than any other I've met thus far. I finally felt listened to and supported which has the potential to put me on a pathway to a completely different quality of life. I would absolutely recommend their services.

Mr David Redfern

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Visited to see Mr David Redfern about an issue that I have with my achilles tendon. I was seen on time, and he listened to what my issues were and performed an examination. He then discussed what the best next steps would be and referred me to a colleague for assessment and a possible high volume injection into my achilles tendon.
