Good and met my needs. For biopsy results to come back a 3 weeks anticipated which I think is too long

Dr. Simon Peake, is very thorough, with all the tests, he'd given me; as I was originally referred to him, via my Endocrinologist; due to my blood test results for anaemia. Dr. Simon Peake, had done a gastroscopy, and colonoscopy procedure at the same time, and whilst having this procedure done, he had cut away two, pre-cancerous polyps from the colon area; as I wasn't even aware I had them! Thankfully, I was given the all-clear. Dr. Simon Peake had taken his time to explain the results to me, he has a good bedside manner, and I would highly recommend him. His secretary, is a lovely lady, and very efficient.

My experience with Dr Simon was very reassuring. From the consultation to the procedure Dr Simon was great. He was able to make me feel very relaxed and fully understand everything that was going to happen. The procedure did not take long and there was no pain at all. I would highly recommend Dr Simon.

Dr Peake was great, he was very caring and attentive and all my appointments and procedures were done very very quickly. He explained everything to me very well/clearly and always made sure I was ok before and after my procedure. His secretary Marcela was also amazing, everything was done so smoothly through her and it was really easy to communicate with her. Thank you Marcela and Dr Peake for your fantastic care. I would highly recommend!

Dr Peake was reassuring. I was nervous but he put my mind at rest. He was a very good clinician and the colonoscopy was painless as was my recovery afterwards.
