Ms Rachel Clarkson

Nutritionist

Working with Rachel has been genuinely life-changing. My name is Kevin, I'm in my 40's and a buisness owner in London. Over the past nine months, through a sustainable and healthy approach to eating and nutrition, built around a highly personalised, DNA-based programme through The DNA Way, she has helped me lose 21kg to date. I started this journey at 102kg and am now down to 81kg, with my next weight goal being approximately 77kg. Just as importantly, the focus hasn’t only been on weight, but on overall body composition and long-term health. I began at 31% body fat and have reduced this to 22%, with a clear and realistic goal of reaching 15% body fat in a safe and sustainable way. Throughout this process, I have learnt an incredible amount about nutrition, food choices, and how the body actually responds to what we eat. It’s honestly surprising that this level of education isn’t taught in schools, given how fundamental it is to living a healthy, balanced and nutritious life. Rachel doesn’t just tell you what to do, she explains why, which has completely changed how I think about food and nutrition long-term. This has very much been a lifestyle change, not a diet. A key part of the process has been how highly personalised everything has been, using DNA-based nutrition through The DNA Way to tailor the approach specifically to me. This has made it much easier to stay consistent, as the plan fits into my busy work and social life and includes foods that I genuinely enjoy, rather than feeling restrictive. The journey has not been straightforward, as I have a number of medical challenges that need to be carefully factored into everything we do. These limitations have restricted how much physical exercise I’ve been able to carry out, meaning progress hasn’t been driven by training alone. Instead, we’ve had to be thoughtful, strategic, and creative in our approach. Rachel has been exceptional at adapting plans around these constraints, ensuring that everything remains safe, realistic, and achievable while still delivering consistent results. Despite these challenges, progress has continued, and that’s been one of the most reassuring parts of working with Rachel. There is always a clear plan, measurable goals, and a structured approach that keeps things moving forward without compromising my health. I’m confident we will reach the remaining goals by staying disciplined, trusting the process, and continuing to work to the plan we’ve put in place, particularly because the approach is tailored to my DNA and therefore works for me as an individual. The biggest takeaway I can give anyone considering working with Rachel is that success comes down to discipline and consistency, but those are made much easier when the approach fits around real life and is built specifically for you. Rachel provides everything you need, including the education, structured plans, guidance, and recipe ideas, but it’s up to you to follow through. If you commit to the process and apply what she teaches you, the results will come. I’m living proof that even with medical limitations, a busy lifestyle, and long-term habits to change, meaningful and lasting change is absolutely possible with the right support and approach.

Duality Healthcare NI

Audiology, Diagnostics & Testing, + 5 more

I booked and paid for a private online consultation with Dr Vinesan Naidoo regarding persistent hyperprolactinaemia confirmed on blood tests (monomeric prolactin approx. 590 mIU/L; total prolactin approx. 704 mIU/L) with ongoing symptoms including low libido, low energy, anxiety, poor sleep and mood issues. This appointment was extremely disappointing. From the start, I was interrupted repeatedly and not allowed to explain my symptoms properly. The doctor quickly dismissed the issue as “physiological” and “not a medical concern” despite clearly abnormal blood results and clear symptoms affecting my quality of life. What I found most frustrating is that he seemed to assume he knew better than I do about what I’m experiencing, essentially implying that raised prolactin at these levels cannot cause symptoms — even though it is well known that prolactin elevation can affect libido, mood, energy and sexual function in men. There was no structured assessment and no clear plan. The consultation did not cover: possible causes of raised prolactin repeat testing plan (fasting, stress-controlled, early morning) medication/supplement review endocrine referral pathway whether pituitary imaging should be considered if prolactin remains elevated As a patient paying privately, I expected a professional, thorough medical discussion. Instead, I felt dismissed and rushed, and left with no help, no reassurance, and no next steps. I cannot recommend this doctor based on my experience. I paid for a medical consultation, but what I received was an opinion with no investigation, no plan and no clinical value.

One Ashford Hospital

Dermatology, Pain Management, + 21 more

There was a lot of confusion in regards to my follow up appointment post surgery. An appointment was booked and agreed for Monday morning, another appointment was booked for the afternoon in addition to the morning appointment, which I tried to rearrange for the following day and recieved confirmation, that appointment I found out later had not been booked and one was made for the following week, and I had called to confirm the appointment for Monday morning too. I found out later that the Monday morning appointment was cancelled but I was not told this until I arrived for the appointment early. Gill at reception was extremely helpful and was immediately on the case to help me as this was a wound check appointment. She spoke to Nikki and Bev and I was able to be seen very quickly. I appreciated all the help I was given by Gill and she helped me create my next appointment for 6 weeks time and navigate the situation well. The appointment itself was informative and very good. I believe there was a mix up with the lists for the day and it seemed to be that everyone just got confused with what appointments for me were needed to be rearranged/ cancelled. Everything was resolved quickly and calmly, and I thank everyone for their help in resolving this.

Mr Ashok Mohanty

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I was very impressed with the care and attention I received from Mr Mohanty. Not only did he check on me after my procedure, but he phoned the next day and then came in later that evening, even though it was his day off. Initially, after my procedure, I had a catheter fitted. However, when they removed it, I encountered difficulties passing urine. Mr. Mohanty allowed me to go home with a catheter fitted and arranged to see me in his clinic the following day. About 10.00 that next day, Mr Mohanty phoned me to check that I had all the information I needed to attend his clinic (as he hadn’t been on site when I was discharged) and was very welcoming upon my arrival. This appointment went as he had explained and I left hospital without a catheter a few hours later. Since my procedure, I have been very amazed at the level of care and professionalism Mr. Mohanty has shown to me - he has phoned a number of times to check on my recovery and shown interest in me as a person, remembering some key facts about my life. He is an excellent practitioner and I am grateful for what he has done.

OS Clinic

Neurosurgery, Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, + 6 more

I have been so pleased with my experience of surgery by Dr Shilen Patel. At the first consultation he explained very clearly and in detail what my operation would entail and the possible risks, but without scaring me. This gave me a lot of confidence for the day of the operation, and the surgery went very well. When dressings were removed 10 days after my operation I was really surprised to see how neat the wound was, and it was healing nicely. I had very little pain, and Mr Patel explained to me at my follow up appointment that the tumour had been removed fully without rupturing, so there is very little chance of it returning. He had also explained how they had worked to ensure they did not damage a nearby nerve which I had been so relieved about. In conclusion, I was very pleased with the overall treatment received and with the care and respect I was shown. Thank you.

Professor Iain Bruce

ENT Surgeon

Professor Iain Bruce performed an adenotonsillectomy on our four-year-old, and we were thoroughly impressed from start to finish. From the initial consultation through pre-op, the operation itself, and post-op care, everything was handled with exceptional professionalism and care. Nothing was ever too much trouble, every question was answered thoroughly, and the procedure was explained in a clear, reassuring way. All of the staff at Spire Hospital were incredibly friendly and supportive, which made the entire experience much less daunting for both us and our son. Our son has healed very well, and we’ve noticed a marked improvement in his sleep, snoring, and ability to concentrate during the day. We would not hesitate to recommend Professor Iain Bruce and would return in a heartbeat if we ever needed to.

Nuffield Health The Holly Hospital

Paediatrics, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, + 10 more

All of the staff at Nuthfield were so kind. Everyone was always smiling and being happy and kind to myself and my partner. From the receptionist who told us where to go and took us to our room. To the night nurse that checked us in to the room. I had multiple nurses come and check on me throughout the time I waited to have the cystoscopy. We were able to get food before and after. We arrived at 07:00 on the 27th, and I can't remember all the lovely people's names who helped us. My only slight criticism would be from arriving at the hospital at 07:00 the actual procedure didn't start till after 09:00 and this gave me lots of time to overthink the procedure. But I think that was a me problem and I also don't know how long these things take to check people in etc. So apologies if it is standard haha.

Newmedica Leicester

Ophthalmology

I attended an appointment with my mum as she has been referred for cataract surgery. Upon arrival we had a warm friendly welcome. When mum was called in I explained to the lady that mum is profoundly deaf and she lip read's and asked if she could look at mum when talking to her. Naz was absolutely amazing, she spoke clearly and looked at my mum when speaking and explained everything to her. Both myself and my mum were really impressed as it's not easy for my mum when people don't understand her deafness. The lady we saw after Naz was good with mum too. With our experience yesterday it put our minds at rest that mum will be helped and understood when she goes back for surgery.

Mr Dylan Griffiths

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I recently received treatment under the care of Mr Dylan Griffiths, and I couldn’t be more impressed. He took time to listen &, explain my condition clearly, and discuss treatment available. He arranged my procedure in the imaging department. The consultant radiologist Dr George was also excellent, he explained everything clearly & I felt supported and well-informed throughout. Thanks to both for their skill and guidance, I’ve made a fantastic recovery and feel genuinely grateful for the quality of care. I would highly reccomend .

I was really happy that I chose to go to Castle Craig.

Dr Punit Ramrakha

Cardiologist

Dr Ramrakha was extremely easy to talk to and listened carefully. This was my first consultation with him and so far I am happy to be under his care for tests . He has also taken care to pass on any relevant correspondence and previous clinic letters to other consultants involved in my diagnosis. I would be happy to recommend him to anyone who needs a caring cardiologist.
