Patient Feedback

  • Mr. Abulafi saw me on time and allowed all the time necessary to explain the procedure for repairing my hernia. North Downs is my choice of hospital whenever possible, not only because it is local to where I live but also I have always had good treatment and outcomes there.

  • I was fortunate enough to have this hospital provided as an NHS patient for my full knee replacement, the care provided was outstanding in all respects, the single occupancy room was nice and had all I needed in it, food was also good, even a sandwich arrives well filled and with a little garnish rather than in a tear open cardboard box. It’s more like a cottage hospital which has a very personal feel to it. Highly recommended.

  • Went for my check up which I do every 3 years. Such a lovely team here, especially Juliana the nurse who has an extremely good "bedside manner". Didn't have to wait around too long and was in & out within a couple of hours. More than happy to come back!

  • I would like to express the immense gratitude I hold for the extraordinary care I received from Mr Khan. From the very first consultation through to the successful procedure and aftercare, Mr, Khan demonstrated not only unparalleled surgical skill and professionalism but also a rare blend of compassion, patience, and kindness. His calm confidence, clear communication, and dedication to excellence reassured me at every step of what could have been a daunting process. It’s one thing to treat a condition; it’s another to treat a person with such holistic and thoughtful care. Thanks to Mr. Khan’s expertise, I not only experienced a seamless recovery, but I now enjoy a quality of vision that I didn’t expect. My deepest Gratitude to an Exceptional Ophthalmologist Surgeon. Thank you.
