It’s Very difficult to put into words how happy we were with our experience with Jess. The huge decision in finding an obstetrician seemed quite daunting, but Jess came highly recommended and a short zoom call later, we didn’t need to look any further. From the first meeting we felt very at ease and knew we had chosen the right person to deliver our first baby into the world. From our first conversation to a surprise early arrival from our little one, not a single thing stressed Jess, making our experience extremely calm. With so much confidence in her field, no question was too small or silly which put our minds at ease beyond belief. I can’t sing her praises enough. The most important role there is, and we can not be more grateful for her.
Jess was incredible throughout the pregnancy journey. She has a calm and approachable demeanor and consistently took the time to answer our (sometimes copious amount) of questions. We always felt well informed, which instilled a lot of confidence throughout the process. On the day of my induction Jess was with us at the hospital for nearly the entire day and continuously checking in which was very comforting. I am forever grateful that we found Jess and would highly recommend her to anyone!
I am incredibly grateful for Jess’s support throughout my pregnancy and would recommend her wholeheartedly. She was always available - just a WhatsApp message away - and combined absolute professionalism with a warmth that immediately put us at ease. From the start, it felt as though we were in the expert care of a trusted friend. I feel very fortunate to have found Jess and to have been in her capable hands for my elective C-section. She took the time to prepare us for what to expect, and on the day itself it was such a comfort to see her, knowing that someone we trusted so completely would be delivering our baby boy. My recovery was smooth, and my scar healed quickly and without any issues, which also speaks to Jess’s exceptional skill as a surgeon. Thank you Jess! Beth, Linford and Bo
Jess was incredibly friendly and welcoming from our very first visit, and it was a complete no-brainer to work with her for my pregnancy and delivery. It was so reassuring to have her number throughout the pregnancy - with this being our first baby I had a lot of anxieties, and Jess was so patient in responding and reassuring me with every worry and query I had. I felt very safe and comfortable with Jess during the birth and trusted her opinions and advice completely. Although my birth didn't quite go to plan (when do they ever!) I came away with such a positive experience of birth and most importantly, a gorgeous healthy baby girl. We hope to come back to Jess for our future babies and absolutely recommend her to everyone! Thank you Jess :)
We had a great experience with Jess from the beginning to the end ! My pregnancy was quite complicated with low lying placenta but we felt safe and in very good hands along the journey. We had to do a C Section at the end and it was a really nice experience. Scar was top notch, very clean. Would definitely recommend Jess and will come back for next pregnancy if any !
When my husband and I found out about our pregnancy it was immediately clear to us that high quality personalised obstetric care was going to be a key priority for us. Luckily we were recommended Jess by our (also very lovely) GP and we couldn't have wished for a better outcome on all fronts: Jess' track record gave us a lot of trust initially and interacting with her it quickly became clear how she built it - her friendly and skilful guidance helped us through each stage of the pregnancy and even took away my fear of the c-section, which was indeed executed perfectly by her and the wider team she put together. The most important feature of the package we booked in our view was the constant access to her and her team via text and phone, which gave us the reassurance we needed - and which was absolutely instrumental in helping us manage an ankle fracture I sustained in my second trimester as we were able to make the best decisions for our baby by getting the right input through the initial night we spent in A&E and also further down the line. We would absolutely want Jess by our side again should we be lucky enough to experience a second pregnancy!

Thank you so much for such lovely words - this means a lot to me. I am thrilled you had a wonderful experience. Hopefully our paths cross again :) Regards Jess
I cannot recommend Jess highly enough. She was incredibly thorough and took the time to explain everything clearly, which gave me so much confidence and trust throughout my pregnancy journey. She made the whole process feel straightforward and manageable, never overwhelming. We carefully went through all the different options and possibilities for my birth, and I always felt informed, supported, and listened to. Jess’s calm and reassuring approach made such a difference, and I’m so grateful to have had her by my side.

Thank you so much for your review. I really appreciate your comments - means the world to me! Regards Jess
Dear Dr. Jess,We had a lovely Christmas, and I hope you did as well! Thank you for sending us the postnatal letter.

We will definitely come back if and when we are ready to expand our family.Thank you.Best regards,Kristina, Zubin, Magdalena, and Serafina

Thank you so much for your review. It was a pleasure being a part of your little ladies arrivals into the world! Take care!
I was recently under Jess’ care for my first pregnancy and birth of my son and we felt so safe and supported working with her. Jess has a personal approach with her patients and took the time to get to know myself and my husband, which made us feel very comfortable around her during appointments and the birth. Jess made herself available whenever I needed a question answered or an appointment, she was always contactable via whatsapp and answered any questions (big or small) that I had! There were parts of my birth that did not go to plan (which were outside of our control) and Jess took the time during and after the birth to discuss and debrief on the birth in detail, which were so helpful to me being able to process and understand. I was very grateful to be able to be under the care of Jess - I look forward to being under her care again for future pregnancies and highly recommend her.

A (delayed) big thank you for taking the time to leave this. I really appreciate your honesty - and very much look back fondly on our journey together. Take care!
Jess was my consultant throughout my pregnancy, a fab doctor and surgeon who safely delivered my son back in October. She is empathic, tries to be available to her patients and put my mind at ease whenever I needed some encouragement

A (belated) thank you for your kind words! I really appreciate it! Take care!
Working alongside Jess has been a true pleasure. Her proactive management style and person-centred care are evident in the way she supports patients with gestational diabetes. By leading with an integrative approach, Jess provides expecting mums with a holistic, health-focused and positive pregnancy experience. Anyone considering her as their obstetrician would be in excellent hands.
