The Focal Therapy Clinic

Oncology

I went for an independent assessment of my prostate cancer diagnosis with a possible view to private treatment if I did not get chosen for focal therapy on the NHS trial that I hade been offered. Also to help me make my mind up which of the many options offered to me by the NHS A consultation was quickly arranged via Mr Doherty’s p.a. for £250 which my wife and I attended. I was given an excellent appraisal at the meeting followed by a letter that outlined a meeting Mr Doherty had with his peers to discuss my case. The letter confirmed that in their opinion focal therapy was a good option in my particular case having had access to my medical records This in my view was an excellent service for the fee but I was lucky enough to be chosen for this focal treatment under the NHS trial, I would have gone private had not my private medical insurance rejected my claim (that is another story) I am however indebted to Mr Doherty’s help and service which he provided So far the day operation held in Oxford on the 10th Nov 2025 has had very few downsides although I am still awaiting the final result on Jan 13th 2026 and hoping for a positive result from my consultant on this day The treatment was far less intrusive that the other options offered to me for which I count myself very lucky. Under the trial I will be monitored so that the NHS can find out how the longer term prognosis is for focal treatments so they are able to offer this more widely in the NHS. For my selfish sake I hope that it is good news for me and will enable others to benefit from my experience now and in the future. I am aged 74 and look forward to good health for the foreseeable future.🤞

Prof. Adam Frampton

General Surgeon

Professor Frampton 'de-roofed' a large cyst growing towards the back of my liver very skilfully, using a Robot to navigate past important internal structures, excess fat, & through adhesions from past operations I've had. This resulted in minimal operative consequence to my abdomen, & to me post-operatively - meaning I awoke from the general anaesthetic without the significant pain I recall from several past 'open surgery' type operations (I was then even able to eat sandwiches, enjoy a cup of cocoa, & walk to the bathroom, before 'sleeping it off'!) I was only in hospital for 48hrs & left with just a little discomfort (from bumps in the road on the journey home), and five small glue-covered external incisions from the Robot's arms across the front of my waistline, which healed quickly. My only instructions were No Lifting for first 6wks, and to take Paracetamol & occasionally DHCodeine for some understandable right-sided abdominal tenderness. That steadily tailed off along with v.mild discomfort when hicupping/sneezing, as I healed internally whilst taking things easily (& light exercise) at home over next 12-14 days. This operation transpired to be an amazingly positive experience for which I cannot thank & recommend Professor Frampton highly enough - not only for his surgical & Robotic expertise, but also his conscientious & professional assessment of my health pre & post surgery, his reassuring explanations & his most pleasant communication personally throughout (administratively aided by his excellent PA)!

Dr Mohammed Al-Khateeb

Audiologist

An Exceptional Audiologist Who Truly Changes Lives I cannot recommend Dr Mohammed Al-Khateeb highly enough. After suffering head trauma, I experienced severe dizziness and nausea that completely disrupted my daily life. It was frightening and debilitating, and I struggled to find clear answers—until I saw Dr Al-Khateeb. From the very first appointment, his professionalism, expertise, and calm reassurance stood out. He conducted a thorough assessment and quickly identified the root cause of my symptoms: a balance disorder caused by displaced crystals in the inner ear. His explanation was clear, detailed, and easy to understand, which immediately put me at ease. Dr Al-Khateeb’s treatment was precise and expertly delivered. What truly impressed me was his confidence and skill—he knew exactly what needed to be done and carried it out with care and precision. Thanks to his treatment, my symptoms improved rapidly, and I went on to make a full recovery. Beyond his technical excellence, Dr Al-Khateeb is compassionate, patient, and genuinely invested in his patients’ wellbeing. He took the time to answer all my questions and ensured I felt supported throughout the entire process. If you are suffering from dizziness, balance issues, or inner ear problems, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr Mohammed Al-Khateeb. He is an outstanding audiologist and a true expert in his field. I am incredibly grateful for his care—he quite literally gave me my life back.

Miss Elaine Scott

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

This was my second time delivering a baby with Miss Scott - I couldn't recommend her highly enough and I can't imagine having a baby with any other obstetrician. Miss Scott looked after me throughout my first pregnancy and delivered my first child, which was a very positive pregnancy and birth experience. Then, I had a very stressful pregnancy second time around with potential complications for both myself and my baby, and Miss Scott was full of knowledge and support at every step of the way, throughout the pregnancy and birth. When needed, she consulted with other doctors to validate her opinions, and presented all of this back to me in ways I could easily understand. I felt I could make informed decisions at every stage of my pregnancy. The birth was as smooth sailing as could be, with Miss Scott leading the fabulous team of midwives so well - everyone always knew what they were doing, and it made for a hugely positive birth experience. Most importantly, my baby was born as healthy as could be. I could not recommend Miss Scott more highly for her professionalism, dedication to her patients and ultimately being a very lovely obstetrician at a time when you need someone who is deeply compassionate and caring. If I have another baby, I have no doubt the obstetrician I would ask to look after me again would be Miss Scott.

GenesisCare Cambridge

Oncology

I feel very fortunate to have had my chemotherapy and radiotherapy at GenesisCare Cambridge. The standard of care is excellent and everyone at the clinic is friendly and welcoming. While spotlessly clean with fantastic facilities the centre doesn't feel overly clinical. I really like the holistic approach to treatment at GenesisCare and particularly benefited from the exercise medicine clinic which took me from gym phobic to regular gym goer with huge benefits for my physical and emotional wellbeing. GenesisCare go above and beyond to make treatment less arduous, from providing really comprehensive support to prevent or mitigate unpleasant side effects to offering a complimentary taxi service to and from radiotherapy sessions. Another plus of GenesisCare is that the consultations are never rushed - there is always time for questions and I particularly appreciated my consultant taking time to talk me through the treatment options and providing really clear answers to all my questions.

Mr Arvind Vashisht

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

Mr Arvind Vashist was one of the doctors recommended to me after seeking a second opinion from his colleague, Professor Knowles. I’m so very grateful and thankful for his recommendation. My appointment at this clinic was punctual, and I was promptly taken to my incredibly talented and amazing doctor and surgeon, Mr Vashist. Throughout my care, I have found him very personable and felt genuinely cared for. Moreover, I have felt extremely confident with his recommendations, and the outcome has exceeded my expectations. He has always explained everything in detail using straightforward language and concepts. I have always felt comfortable and confident in his ability to treat and care for me. On every occasion, he has afforded plenty of time at each appointment, so I never felt rushed and could ask questions. I wholeheartedly recommend Mr Vashist. He has literally saved my life.

The Horder Centre

Orthopaedic Surgery, Physiotherapy

My overall experience was excellent. However when I got home I found I wasn't completely sure/ had forgotten exactly when and how to take all the medicines I was given and when to stop e.g. how slowly to reduce the codeine when I didn't need it any more. Clearly printed instructions to take home would have been reassuring straight away and later. I know I could have rung the Horder Centre any time for advice but at 82 years old my hearing is less than perfect and I worry I shall not remember everything I hear afterwards. The Horder hip replacement book is excellent and is still a constant source of referral and encouragement.

Dr Claire Baldry

Oncologist

I highly recommend Dr. Claire Baldry and her practice. From my very first appointment, I have felt genuinely cared for. Claire is a true professional highly competent, incredibly thorough, and always ensures every step of my treatment is clearly explained. Beyond her impressive expertise, she is also wonderfully friendly and approachable. She creates a supportive atmosphere that makes a difficult journey much easier to navigate. I feel completely confident and at ease under her care. If you are looking for an oncologist who combines professionalism with genuine compassion, look no further.

Future Care Medical

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Dermatology, + 14 more

Dr. Cho is simply outstanding. She made me feel completely comfortable throughout the entire consultation, which lasted almost an hour. She explained every question I had in detail, offered additional insights I wouldn’t have thought to ask, and provided a very thorough treatment plan. What stood out the most was that she truly treated me as a person first — showing genuine care and interest in my wellbeing, something that feels increasingly rare in medical practices nowadays. The staff were also incredibly warm and welcoming. I can only recommend her.

Spire Methley Park Hospital

Breast Surgery, Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, + 14 more

Very good overall. Minor gripes only would be the limited parking, limited capacity in waiting areas and that some seating is too low to meet the needs of hip / knee patients . The roll out of the new call centre facility makes for a patchy experience at times and it’s concerning that online accounts fail to show all patient appointments - even with the consultants - which may lead to confusion and potential missed appointments. Work in progress and will surely iron out in time.

Mr Divyang Shukla

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Mr Shukla is an outstanding orthopaedic surgeon. From my very first appointment, he was kind, patient, and extremely thorough, taking the time to explain everything clearly and put me completely at ease. His expertise and professionalism are exceptional, and the care I received was of the highest standard. I am incredibly grateful for his skill and dedication, and I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Shukla to anyone in need of orthopaedic care.

Professor Tom Quick

Orthopaedic Surgeon

Professor Quick gave clarity and honesty about surgical success rates for Thoracic Outlet decompression. His aim is to treat the individual living with the TOS condition most appropriate to their particular presentation, rather than treating Thoracic outlet syndtome as a homogenous condition; with 'one size surgery, fits all'. I feel reassured he will offer a minimally invasive approach should I opt for surgery.

Spire Manchester Hospital

Orthopaedic Surgery, Ear Nose & Throat Surgery (ENT/Otolaryngology), + 11 more

Whilst the initial administrative/communication aspects were less than convincing, that was certainly not the case whenever I was actually on the Spire premises. All the staff on my 2 day stay for the operation were fantastic, and likewise my subsequent post op attendances for wound check, clip removal and physio sessions were of the highest quality.

Spire Hartswood Hospital

Weight Loss & Bariatric Surgery, Allergy Medicine, + 20 more

My visit was very pleasant and the staff were friendly and very helpful and checking in was very easy, but i do think for some older people how don’t have very good It technology my struggle with the checking but I am sure your friend le staff would help them if they asked and need it because sometimes we don’t always come with how help us check in

Mr Dan Shaerf

Orthopaedic Surgeon

We saw Dr Shaerf for a wrist injury my daughter experienced in gymnastics. He had a great manner with her and was helpful in explaining what may be causing her pain and what the course of treatment may be once we find out more. He was on time, listened to us and we will continue to seek treatment from him once we learn more from tests.

Dr. Haus Dermatology

Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Dermatology

Every time I come I feel entirely welcome. Everything is clearly communicated and the entire staff is helpful and very friendly. This is about my 10th time (!!) coming to the clinic I think and that's testament to the quality and professionalism I'm always met with :)
