MRI Scan (Magnetic Resonance Imaging scan)

Staff were lovely, environment was lovely, the scan itself was so much more relaxed than standard NHS.
Only thing was I was 10 minutes past my appointment time getting scanned, not at all an issue, I understand things run behind and that’s absolutely fine.

Hernia

My operation went very and pleased with the healing process

Knee Pain

Arthritis (Knee)

After using a different private hospital previously, Spire was a breath of fresh air!
Very easy to engage with and more professional and polished!

Anterior Hip Replacement (Direct Anterior Approach)

I thoroughly enjoyed my recent overnight stay at Spire Methley Park Hospital.

I had my own room, the hospital was spotlessly clean and I was comfortable throughout my stay.

All of the staff I came into contact with were extremely friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them. Everyone greeted you with a smile and genuinely wanted to take good care of and look after their patients.

The food was excellent during my stay and the menus offered a great choice to cater for all tastes.

It has been a pleasure to have imaging reported on by LSRI. Dr. Sankaye has exquisite knowledge of the MSK system, and associated parts, and also a good level of broader specialist medical knowledge accompanied by a healthy degree of inquisitiveness and curiosity. This is how medical problems are solved. I presented fist for groin pain and then further investigation of the left hip. Happy with the results and path forward and most pleased by the availability of what is essentially direct access radiology. Very competitive service and great support team running things in the background

Biopsy Procedures

Image Guided Biopsy

Ultrasound

Dr Dhesi was exceptional in his relaxed professional manner. Having never met me but set to perform an intimate and uncomfortable procedure with potentially grave outcomes, he swiftly put me at ease by being lucid, succinct and reassuring about what was happening. 
His confident personable modus operandi not only made the potentially unpleasant procedure seem to pass swiftly but I am certain it facilitated the assisting nurses to also give of their best.

Dr Syahminan was very polite and professional I felt very comfortable at all times and he explained what he was doing and next steps clearly .My ppointment was on time and no issues at all.
