VISIO Health

Ophthalmology

I had a very good experience with Visio Health when I had recent laser treatment following cataract surgery on both eyes with Ms Sandhu. The cataract surgery, which took place in hospital in July and October, has been very successful. I no longer need glasses after having vision corrective lenses. And I hadn’t realised quite how blurred and sepia my sight had become. My vision is now very clear and bright. It really has positively impacted my life. Everything looks like it did back when I was young. It’s so much more cheerful than that blurry, yellow sight that I had grown so used to. And I am so much more confident when driving. No more night glare. I was really apprehensive and anxious about cataract surgery. So much so that it was decided that I would have the procedure under general anaesthetic. But I can honestly say that despite all the worry the end result is better than I could have imagined. The laser treatment at Visio to improve my sight further with one session of laser treatment was totally painless, very straightforward and uncomplicated. The clinic was very well organised and the staff were all lovely. A very good experience.

Review for Podiatrist Consultant Liam Stapleton I have been a patient of Liam Stapleton for several years, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Liam is consistently professional, attentive, and genuinely thorough. He always takes the time to listen carefully, explains everything clearly, and makes sure you fully understand both the problem and the treatment options. What really sets him apart is how deeply he thinks about each case rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach. He looks at issues from multiple angles, not just the painful area itself. He considers overall functionality, gait, posture, and the geometry of movement, and how all of these interact and impact the body. This holistic and biomechanical approach has made a huge difference to my outcomes over the years. You never feel rushed, dismissed, or treated like a number. Liam is thoughtful, analytical, and genuinely committed to finding the root cause of problems rather than just treating symptoms. If you are looking for a podiatrist who is highly knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and truly invested in long-term functional improvement, Liam Stapleton is exceptional.

As a someone who has never experienced detox/rehab, group therapy, meetings, psychiatric evaluation or support and with very little exposure to discussion or open dialogue about my addition or indeed addiction in general it would have been helpful to have a better introduction/orientation to the process, perimeters, etiquette etc. I full appreciate the variables and ambiguities in an environment such as this but even being aware of what they might be would have been helpful. I felt my length of stay and the detox treatment was minimised and at times mocked, invalidating my treatment, commitment and if I’m honest, my character. I felt ridiculous and vulnerable and two particular group sessions. I would never have mocked anyone else’s efforts or derided anyone on their multiple attempts at recovery but if I had I would have fully expected to be challenged for doing so - I didn’t feel there was anyone interested in challenging the negativity directed towards me and it left me feeling quite isolated and undermined.

Ms Shabana Syed

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I cannot speak highly enough of Miss Syed and the exceptional level of care she provided. From the moment I met her, she was warm, compassionate, and genuinely attentive. What truly set her apart was how quickly she recognised that my issue wasn’t gynaecological and immediately took action, moving my care to an appropriate consultant to continue investigations. Her communication was outstanding throughout. She frequently went above and beyond, even calling outside of office hours to make sure I had the information and support I needed. That level of dedication is incredibly rare, and it made an enormous difference during a very stressful time. I have never experienced such thoughtful, proactive, and considerate care from a consultant. Miss Syed is an exceptional clinician and an extraordinary person. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a gynaecologist who combines expertise with genuine kindness and commitment.

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.

Mr Amer Raza

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

After seeing several gynecologists, Mr Raza was at last the most reassuring and straight forward in explaining why having a robotic laparoscopic hysterectomy would be the best way forward for me. I am now 6 weeks post op and I am feeling great. I am continuing to be amazed by how small my scar is (2cm!). I would highly recommend Mr Raza to any women doubting whether to have the operation. Every person is different of course but he is so knowledgeable, kind and professional. His PA - Sukhy - has been extremely helpful, supportive and always at the end of the line if I had any question - even during the Christmas week. Thank you !

Skylight Psychiatry

I had a online assessment, I was seen by Wioleta Cholewinska. She was really lovely, welcoming and put me at ease. She made me feel comfortable and was understanding and listened very well. The longest waiting part was from filling out the forms to the assessment, but even tho this was a wait, I was expecting it to be a lot longer than it was so that’s great. The actual booking of my assessment was super quick and easy. They sent me a date and time that was for an appointment within 14days of them sending me the appointment details. I’ve heard this can be a lot longer elsewhere so I was surprised about this in a good way.

Vermilion - The Smile Experts Edinburgh

Dental Care, Dentistry

My son had a surgical extraction and the procedure was very calm and relaxed for him. I was able to be there too, so I watched the whole procedure and was very impressed at how clean the procedure was, resulting in a positive experience and successful extraction, ahead of upcoming orthodontic work. Waiting times weren't too long, although for private treatment we had hoped to be seen a little sooner than we were. The practice staff were friendly and very welcoming and high standards were evident throughout, in terms of hygiene and care. My son has no pain and is recovering well.

Professor Siôn Glyn-Jones

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I am extremely grateful to have been under the care of Professor Siôn Glyn-Jones. He is exceptionally knowledgeable and supported by a fantastic team. Everything was clearly explained at every stage - from understanding my condition, to the procedure itself, and through recovery. I was nervous, but he was consistently reassuring and made me feel completely at ease. I am, of course, very grateful for the positive outcome of my surgery, and I have no doubt that this is due in large part to his skill and expertise. I would recommend him wholeheartedly.

Mr Vivek Gulati

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I saw Mr Gulati during October initially for a consultation. This confirmed and was followed by a total hip replacement in December concluding with a final follow on consultation in January. Mr Gulati proved to be an excellent surgeon throughout my journey. He was clear on his advice, a consummate professional in all our meetings and a very positive, warm and engaging demeanor overall have made for as positive an outlook as I could hope for. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Gulati.

AURA Centre of Dental Excellence & Facial Aesthetics

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Dental Care, + 1 more

I recently visited AURA for a routine examination and dental hygiene appointment. The team conveniently scheduled both so I could have everything done in a single visit. Dental hygienist Marta provided a thorough yet gentle clean and polish, along with helpful advice on maintaining good tooth and gum health. Dr Nadine Skipp is extremely knowledgeable and skilled, but also very kind, and took the time to explain everything clearly. Everyone at AURA was friendly, professional, and welcoming.

Professor James East

Gastroenterologist

I recently had a colonoscopy and gastroscopy under the care of Prof East. Clear advice and guidance were provided in preparation for the procedures. I opted for sedation, and the procedures were quick and pain free. I received prompt feedback and (initial) reports following the two procedures. Prof East is very professional and reassuring when dealing with patients. Overall, I feel I am under excellent clinical care. Prof East is supported by an efficient admin team.

The Prostate Centre

Urology, Oncology

I received excellent care from Mr Challacombe for prostate cancer, diagnosed in 2023. I had a robotic total prostatectomy for a high grade cancer and two and a half years later I remain cancer free, with normal urine continence and satisfactory recovery in erectile function. My follow-up appointments are always on time as scheduled. I highly recommend the professional care provided by Prof Challacombe to any man faced with a diagnosis of prostate cancer.

Mr Denis Tsepov

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

My Tsepov was recommended to me by another gynaecologist who suspected I may be suffering from endometriosis. From my first appointment Mr Tsepov was very understanding and explained all my test results very clearly. Pre surgery he was always willing to answer questions via email/phone call. My surgery all went well and my recovery has been quick, I am very grateful to Mr Tsepov, Vicky, Nadia & the rest of the team for their work.

Mr Mazhar Sheikh

Urologist

Attended for investigation of a new symptom. Mr Sheikh was calm, professional and friendly. He explained my symptom, he gave me an examination and shared guidance and recommendations. He encouraged me to ask questions and I did not feel rushed. Encouraged me to request additional support from him if needed. Very happy with the visit to see him.
