I was recommended Mr. Rudd by a friend. It was good to have the time to discuss my medical situation in depth, and to view my previous scans on the computer, which is not something that was offered to me before. It was also reassuring to undergo a further test there and then in the consultancy room, and to see the results on the computer screen straight away, so I came away understanding my situation a lot more, feeling more in control. I highly recommend a visit to Mr Rudd

From our first consultation with Mr Rudd prior to our son’s adenotonsillectomy we were reassured. Our concerns were validated and listened to, all our options were clearly explained and all the risks and benefits outlined in detail. Mr Rudd was excellent with our son who can often be quite shy, being that he is only 3 years old. We saw Mr Rudd prior to and post our son’s surgery and we knew exactly what to expect with his recovery. The difference in our son is astounding, his recovery was textbook and straight forward. Overall our experience with Mr Rudd was excellent.

I found Mr Rudd to be professional and personable. He took his time to listen to my concerns, answer my question’s and explained to me what I needed to know in a calm and informative manner. He carried out a minor investigative procedure during my appointment and I felt reassured by the time I walked out of his office.. His service was excellent and would totally recommend.

I went to see Dr Rudd for an outer ear infection. Was seen incredibly quickly, Dr Rudd thoroughly explained each step of what he was doing. I also had a minor procedure and was impressed at how thorough and professional Dr Rudd was. The level of expertise was great and I would highly recommend seeing him.

Mr Rudd was very patient and listened carefully to the medical history and then showed a lot of consideration for the situation in explaining the diagnosis. He went out of his way to help and resolve the issue. There are no reservations about recommending Mr Rudd or returning to his clinic in the future.

I was seen by Dr. Rudd in May 2025 over concerns about a thyroid nodule. He led the whole treatment and performed my thyroid removal surgery perfectly. I sincerely thank him for his professionalism, patience and expertise.
