Ms Jajini Varghese

Plastic Surgeon

I don’t even know where to begin, because Ms Jajini Varghese was with me at both the lowest and most hopeful points of my life. She was the one who delivered devastating news — and yet she did so with honesty, warmth and humanity. She held my hand, hugged me, spoke to me as a woman, not just a patient. She never sugar-coated, but she always gave me hope. I had a single mastectomy through the NHS, and from the very beginning she was open about expectations while still doing everything she could for the best possible outcome. She told me she would try to save my nipple — and she did. I came out of surgery with excellent symmetry, far beyond what I had been prepared for. At my final check-up (seen by another consultant), he examined me and said he struggled to see which breast had been reconstructed. When he asked who my surgeon was and I told him, his response was simply: “You were operated on by the best.” What stands out most is not just her exceptional surgical skill, but who she is as a person. She is real, warm, relatable .A woman’s woman. She spoke openly, shared human moments, and made me feel brave when I didn’t feel brave at all. If you are facing breast cancer and reconstruction and are scared, I hope you read this and know that you can place your trust in this incredible NHS surgeon. I will forever be grateful.

Mr Okechukwu Okonkwo

ENT Surgeon

Excellent last appointment with Mr Okonkwo and the wonderful nurse who assisted him. The appointment covered all the points I needed to raise and the camera investigation gave me reassurance that I should hopefully be polyp free for a few years. The success of having the polyps removed has changed my life. Not being able to smell and taste had a huge impact on my mental health and quality of life. Had I not had the surgery my life would forever have been miserable. Mr Okonkwo,his amazing secretary and all the surgery and ENT team have given me back 2 vital senses and I’m so happy. I know the polyps will return but I sincerely hope my treatment will be managed again by the brilliant Mr Okonkwo. I cannot thank him and his team enough for everything that they’ve done for me.

Mr Anwar Jafri

Orthopaedic Surgeon

. Mr Jaffri is an excellent communicator who is very reassuring and approachable. He carried out a detailed investigation into my condition and explained everything clearly, including a thorough description of the procedure. The operation itself and the post-operative care were excellent, with my recovery very well managed. I achieved a really good outcome and am now back to a very good level of functioning. He was always punctual and made himself available outside of consultations when needed, which was greatly appreciated. I felt well informed and confident in his care throughout.

Eastwood Community Endoscopy Centre LTD

Gastroenterology, General Surgery

Greeted by friendly staff and seen at my appointment time. Following a basic health check, the procedure was explained in detail and I was taken to a treatment room for the Gastroscopy to begin. Throat spray was applied, blood pressure and oxygen levels were monitored throughout the procedure, then the camera was inserted via the mouth into the oesopagus and stomach. The process was painless but a little discomfort was felt and took no longer that 10 minutes in total. I was then taken to a recovery room and discussed the treatment findings.

Mental Health Dietitians

Dietitian

I have been Sophie’s client for the last 6 months. In that time I have felt my relationship with food and my confidence in myself grow. She has helped me change the beliefs I hold about food and helped me on the road to recovery from anorexia. As an autistic person, I have struggled in the past with connecting with health professionals but Sophie adapts the sessions to meet my needs. She always sends notes after our sessions which is useful in making sure I keep track of what I should be doing.

RTN Mental Health - Right To Choose

Diagnostics & Testing, Psychiatry, + 1 more

All professionals on all levels, be it administration, psychiatrists, health care professionals etc, have all been extremely empathetic, kind, respectful and efficient. I felt safe and able to trust all members of staff during all interactions I've had. Sometimes organisation wasn't always perfect such as informant questionnaires seemingly getting lost and causing delays and my assessment being double booked requiring a last minute rescheduling, but any problems were dealt with efficiently.

Nuffield Health North Staffordshire Hospital

General Practice (GP), Imaging (Scans), + 4 more

I am currently 6wks PO from having BA with Mr Apostolou. I cannot recommend him enough. Mr Apostolou was very professional and reassured any uncertainties I may have had. I am very happy with the results and I have not had any problems whatsoever. My very short stay at Nuffield Hospital was very pleasant and I was very well cared for, even after surgery with routine check ups. I will certainly be recommending Mr Apostolou to friends who I know are considering the same surgery.

Endocare Diagnostics

Gastroenterology

I had to give out personal information in a waiting room with other people. Also I was sat in the waiting room about half an hour having been nil by mouth, there were people eating and drinking. There should be a separate waiting area for patients. It was 2 hrs before I was seen, which is too long when you've been told to be nil by mouth. I had to explain I was autistic to the doctor, who was fine once he understood.

Mr Tarun Singhal

Dr. Arindam Das

Paediatrician

I had an appointment via phone with him and he made me feel very comfortable and he spoke to me kindly and in a way where I could understand him nicely, he gave me great advice on how I can improve my situation and even spoke nicely to my mother, helping her and even speaking to her in her mother tongue so she could understand everything in the most best way. Thank you for this great appointment.

Dr Serge Nikolic

Pain Management Specialist

I saw Dr Nikolic regarding chronic back and leg pain. He was thoughtful, considered, friendly and professional. I felt he was really working to help ease my pain and carefully considered all the options. He worked together with a team to decide on the best course of action. He was available and keen to try all options to help. I would happily and easily recommend him to all.

Private GP Extra

General Practice (GP)

Dr Simon gave me a thorough explanation of my condition and any risks associated with it. He carried out all required tests and called to chat through my blood test results and to make any recommendations. Through Dr Simon’s clear explanations I’m now far more reassured about the condition, and how to deal with future occurrences. Many thanks.

One Stop Healthcare

Pain Management, Breast Surgery, + 47 more

I recommend a private appointment. Instead of a rushed NHS 10 minute experience, the doctor spends 30 minutes understanding symptoms and background. Dr Hamdulay was very thorough, professional and friendly. He gave me very helpful advice and the medication I needed to make a full recovery. Highly recommend OSD Healthcare.

Allergy Centre of Excellence

Allergy Medicine, Diagnostics & Testing, + 2 more

Wonderful experience at ACE, where my son has been attending OIT appointments. The centre is welcoming and full of books and toys to keep us entertained through the appointment. The staff are knowledgeable and kind, we feel very lucky to benefit from their experience. Most importantly, the treatment seems to be working!

Mr Evangelos Gkougkousis

Urologist

My appointment has been very good and I feel I have had plenty of opportunity to discuss how I am feeling and my symptoms. I feel my diagnosis has been explained clearly and in detail and in a manner I can understand. It was very helpful to see the CT scan results and have them as a point of reference whilst talking.

Dr Farhad Iranpour
