Patient Stories
There is no better way than a face-to-face meeting to determine if a consultant is the right health care partner for you, but prior to a consultation it may help to read about the experiences of some of the other people who have had similar treatments.
The patient stories listed below are all genuine experiences written by our patients (some names have been changed to protect identities). You can also read our patient reviews on NHS Choices, Facebook and Google.
If you are a patient who would like to write a review, we would be grateful if you could share your experience via one of the following pages: Write a Google review, Write a Facebook review, Write an NHS Choices review or Write a Doctify review.
If you'd like to share your experience on this patient stories page, please contact the team on 0121 456 8140.
