My experience with Dr Sandwell was truly exceptional. I was nervous but she listened to me very carefully and quickly has put me at ease. She was very attentive to my needs and explained brilliantly and concisely how they could be addressed giving me different options. As we ran out of time she has offered to see me the same day after all her scheduled appointments to make a scan. She was also very prompt and helpful in scheduling a necessary follow up procedure. She has even found the time in her busy schedule to answer a set of questions I've send to her in meantime. All of this has made me feel in a good pair of professional hands. It is a rare experience when the doctor is ready to go extra mile to help a vulnerable patient.
Very related and calm, she explained everything clearly and professionally.
Dr Josephine was really reassuring and thorough - exactly what you want from a consultant. She listened patiently and offered her opinion with care and consideration. Really happy with my experience.
Very reassuring and listens carefully to fully understand and find the best solution
Very calming presence, and made me feel confident going into my fertility journey!
Dr Sandwell was extremely patient and understanding with me. She listened to everything I’ve been experiencing, explained every term I didn’t understand and made me feel extremely comfortable. This has been my best experience with any doctor.
The doctor was excellent. She had time to examine me thoroughly. She was indeed professional.
Dr Sandwell was very sympathetic and caring. Her expertise and her explanations were exemplary. She was also able to provide holistic advice on my condition and suggested helpful next steps for me to pursue. I recommend her without reservation.
Dr Jo is an exceptionally kind, compassionate doctor. Unlike a lot of people who work in this field, she is very human in her approach and understands that patients might have difficulty emotionally with what is a really sensitive thing to talk about. She is also ridiculously skilled and has an intricate knowledge of gynaecology and especially endometriosis. She listened to me, took loads of time and made me feel like she really cared about getting the best outcome for me. If I need any further help I will without a doubt be back. Highly recommended!
I had a fantastic experience with Dr. Sandwell. From the moment I met her, she was incredibly welcoming and reassuring, immediately putting me at ease. Dr Sandwell took the time to clearly explain the entire procedure, answering all my questions and alleviating any concerns I had. Her clear explanations and calm demeanor left me feeling completely reassured. I'm so grateful for her care and already feel significantly better after our conversation.
Ms Sandwell is a warm and thorough clinician with great surgical skills.

Obstetrician & GynaecologistI’ve known Jo since university and have always admired her dedication, skill, and professionalism. She is an accomplished gynaecologist with outstanding clinical expertise and a warm, reassuring manner that immediately puts patients at ease. Reliable, experienced, and deeply compassionate, she consistently delivers high-quality care and is held in the highest regard by both colleagues and patients. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone seeking expert and empathetic gynaecological treatment.
