⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Welcoming our second baby (after Matt also safely delivered our first) into the world was incredibly special, and we feel very fortunate to have had such an outstanding consultant looking after us. We are so grateful for Matt’s expertise, professionalism and kindness throughout the experience. We couldn’t recommend Matt more highly. From start to finish, we felt we were in incredibly safe and capable hands. What particularly stood out was his calm, confident and reassuring manner, especially when an emergency arose during the birth of our second baby. His ability to make quick, decisive decisions under pressure was exceptional and made an enormous difference to us at such a critical moment. Thank you, Matt, for everything. We would wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone looking for an exceptional consultant.

I couldn’t have wished for a better doctor to deliver our baby boy by caesarean. From start to finish, Matt was incredibly kind, patient and attentive, making me feel completely reassured and in the safest hands. His surgical skill was exceptional, and my recovery has been remarkably smooth—a testament to his expertise and thoughtful care. Matt made such an important moment and journey in our lives a truly wonderful experience. We are endlessly grateful and cannot recommend Matt highly enough.

Matt was my consultant for my three pregnancies. I could not recommend him highly enough. He has a calm and reassuring manner and a brain the size of a planet. He is very responsive and attuned to his patients’ needs, but also no nonsense and completely non judgmental. Administrative matters are handled by Matt’s PA, Sarah, who is always very responsive and helpful. Perfect for mums with busy lives, whether working or not, but perhaps particularly for working mums with busy schedules and responsibilities. My children were all delivered by C section. Matt is a fantastic surgeon. The operations were straight forward and the healing process went well. Matt offers post-operative support to make sure recovery is as smooth as possible. All in all, a Rolls Royce service.

We have used Matthew Cauldwell for both of our pregnancies at the Kensington Wing, and I genuinely couldn’t recommend him highly enough. From the very beginning, Matt has been incredibly calm, reassuring and knowledgeable, which meant so much to me given my heart condition and the anxiety that came with pregnancy and delivery. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he consistently went above and beyond to make sure I felt informed, reassured and completely cared for at every stage. I always felt that I was in the very best hands. For our most recent delivery, I was fortunate to have an incredible team around me, including Dr Mark Cox, the anaesthetist, who was absolutely magical. Together, Matt and Mark gave me a level of reassurance and confidence that made an experience I had been very anxious about feel safe and positive. They both even came in to check on me the following day, knowing how anxious I had been, which meant more than they probably realised. I truly couldn’t have wished for a better experience, and we are incredibly grateful to the whole team for helping us safely welcome our beautiful new baby girl into the world.

We were delighted to safely welcome our healthy and happy baby boy with Matt via elective c-section on 4th September. For that, we will be forever grateful. Our experience was everything we could have hoped for. We feel incredibly fortunate to be able to look back at our prenatal and birth experience and want to change nothing! We reached out to Matt on understanding that we may need a c-section following an incorrect diagnosis of placenta previa on the NHS. From that point, Matt provided both the consistency of care and expert reassurance that helped ensure as first time parents we always felt looked after. Matt was available at all hours on WhatsApp and having him at the end of the phone instilled a calm through pregnancy that continued right through to birth and beyond. His knowledge on gestational diabetes was particularly useful with a late stage diagnosis. Matt’s approach was perfect for us. He is a fountain of knowledge and always led with the data and the facts. Listening to our wants but kindly guiding and walking us through how to make those decisions based on all his experience and the relevant papers on any given subject. It is clear that Matt is passionate about maternity care in all that he does in his practice, and it shows. My c-section recovery has also been amazing. We trust that is all down to Matt’s technical capabilities. A final shout out to Sarah his PA, and his recommendation to have support from Ali postpartum. Together, they are the dream team. We would highly recommend Matt and hope that we will be able to continue to grow our family wi...

Dr. Matt recently cared for us throughout my first pregnancy and delivered our healthy baby boy via an elective C-section. After interviewing five or six consultants at Chelsea, we chose Matt and could not be happier with that decision. From the moment we decided to move forward with him through to postpartum care, we received truly personalized attention. He’s data-led, thorough, and reliably responsive. This is exactly the kind of partner we wanted to guide us through our first birth. That same level of care carried through to the team at the Kensington Wing during our recovery. What stood out most was how present he remained after birth, checking in on us multiple times both in person and by phone. We felt genuinely well cared for at every stage. We highly recommend Dr. Matt for maternity care and would make the same choice again without hesitation.

Matt is an exceptional doctor and a most trusted medical partner. He was instrumental in the thankfully uneventful development of my high risk pregnancy at 47 years of age and the smooth deliveey of our baby boy. He enabled us to own and make informed decisions with the support of his immense knowledge, but equally did not hesitate to make his opinions known when it mattered. This combination made us feel equally empowered and assured that we were doing what was best for the baby. Matt was also immensely patient with my understandable anxieties and always provided a balanced and calm perspective, a senaible base against which to calibrate my concerns. When it came to the delivery, his work was technically outstanding and his presence again constant, calm, light and unintrusive but value adding. If I were to do this again, knowing what ai know now, I would not consider any other doctor to support me. I would recommend Matt without any hesitation to anyone who is looking for outstanding professional and human care.

I feel so lucky to have had Matt as my consultant for our first baby. He was attentive, easy to schedule with (his PA Sarah is amazingly responsive), and really kept me at ease through the entire process. I couldn’t have asked for a smoother delivery - he was amazing, calm, reassuring - everything you could want for the birth of your first baby! Already looking forward to baby number 2!

Matt makes you feel completely at ease about birth; he is very supportive and provides all the information you need to make decisions and feel confident. My c-section went incredibly smoothly and I would highly recommend him.

I honestly cannot recommend Matthew highly enough. From the very beginning of my pregnancy, I felt so incredibly well cared for. Matthew has such a wonderful manner, he’s calm, kind, reassuring and exceptionally knowledgeable. Throughout my pregnancy, I always felt that he genuinely listened to me. I went into the birth trusting him completely, and I am so grateful that I did. We ended up needing an emergency c-section. However, even if with a change in our original plans, I can truly say that I had a really positive birth experience and felt so well supported. Matthew’s calmness, expertise and reassurance made us feel completely safe, and we knew without question that we were in the best possible hands. He explained what was happening, guided us through the decisions that needed to be made and made a difficult situation feel controlled and reassuring. Most importantly, he delivered our beautiful baby boy safely, and I will never be able to adequately express how grateful we are to him for that.
