" Really good service, they got me in on the day for China visa medical. Cristina was very good, friendly and professional."
Drew Dover, Private GP Services
" What a wonderful experience I had with this hospital! All the staff couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful. I had breast augmentation by Dr Prasad and I'm over the moon with the results!!! They look so natural I couldn't be happier!! I couldn't recommend enough. I was so nervous and anxious and all the staff I met there put me at ease. It was more like a hotel than a hospital! So clean and I wasn't waiting long for my appointments whatsoever. If I could remember all the staffs' names who dealt with me I would love to personally thank them for making it an experience I'll never forget. Whenever I've had any enquiries I've been responded to straight away. Nothings been too much trouble. They're so bubbly and it's lovely to see when you first walk in. So professional, efficient and friendly. I haven't one complaint. Thank you for everything!"
