Dr Mark Turner

Dr Turner has provided excellent advice and care; he undertook my PFO closure and post surgery follow ups including echo cardiograms, prescription and life style advice post my stroke.

From the moment I entered the Spire building everyone I saw that worked there greeted me with a smiley face and upmost courtesy My consultant Dr Turner was fantastic and explained the whole procedure thoroughly and made me feel incredibly at ease. All worries and concerns instantly quelled

My patient journey from start to finish was excellent.I felt fully informed every step of the way.

I recently had an echo bubble test to check if my heart hole was properly closed. I was late to the appointment and Mark kindly found time to fit me in. He was very thorough and relaxed in his approach, and very human in his communication of what, why and the outcomes of the procedure. The operation to close the hole in my heart had worked very effectively.

Having had a prior phone consultation with Dr Mark Turner I recently attended him at Bristol Spire Hospital from Ireland in relation to an expert and objective medical opinion regarding continuing to scuba dive pursuant to an episode of cardiac arrythmia experienced almost a year ago. He is highly personable and utterly professional with a genuine interest in a patient centric approach. He took considerable care in his assessment of my medical history and his examination. I found his manner relaxed, calm and friendly while thorough and professional. He took the time to discuss my medical history and concerns with me in some detail. I was greatly reassured not just by his highly relevant specialist experience and knowledge but also by the respectful and considered consultation. Dr Turner and the staff at Bristol Spire Hospital provided me with patient care of the highest professional standard in a courteous and efficient manner.

I always enjoy seeing Dr Turner. He never makes me feel rushed and takes a lot of trouble to find out how I am at present.

Dr Turner took time to actively listen and ensure all of my questions were thoroughly answered. Unlike recent appointments with other consultants, I did not feel rushed or under pressure to leave. I would wholeheartedly recommend Dr Turner.

No words can truly do justice to how incredible Dr. Turner is. He performed my PFO closure after I suffered a stroke, during one of the most vulnerable and frightening times of my life. From the moment I met him, he made me feel safe, cared for, and confident that I was in the best hands. He took the time to explain everything clearly, answered my questions with patience, and gave me confidence when I needed it most. His compassion, skill, and professionalism meant more to me than I can ever fully explain. It is easy to see why he is a leader in his field — his knowledge, expertise, and calm reassurance were evident throughout my care. He is everything you could possibly wish for in a doctor: kind, reassuring, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. He did not just treat my condition; he helped me through one of the hardest chapters of my life with kindness and reassurance. I will always be deeply grateful for Dr. Turner and the care he gave me. He is an outstanding doctor, and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

I felt really looked after and was a clear and positive visit
