My experience with Dr Chammas has been exceptional. From the first consultation she managed to give me the right diagnosis, and she prescribed me with the right dose and has adjusted when necessary. I’m almost out of my medication now, thanks to her support. I’ve felt listened and cared for, and she has a very kind approach. Overall, I totally recommend her to anyone in need of an Endocrinologist.

Dr Kaur was very warm, kind and took the time to understand my problem. I would definitely return to her clinic and appreciate her advice and solutions.

Calm, professional, pleasant, empathetic and efficient. Excellent patient journey .

My gallbladder was full of stones and needed to be removed to reduce risk of pancreatitis. AXA had referred me yet again to a consultant who was not a surgeon. I would have had to call AXA and have another appointment with a surgeon but Dr Vasilikostas fitted me in after his clinic finished and scheduled me for surgery within two weeks. He was kind, reassuring and professional.

The reason I chose Dr Rama was that he worked at a top London NHS hospital, Kings College, as well as doing private work. When I first met him, I found him easy to talk to, informative and I could ask him anything. Straight away I felt confident that he was the right person to do this operation for me. Before you have the operation Dr. Rama put me in touch with a dietitian (Kate Walker). I had two meetings with Kate who gave me a pre-op diet to follow, a post-op diet and six weeks after the operation I could start eating normally again. Two weeks before I had the operation, I was given a pre-op. It was discovered that I had very high blood pressure. I made an appointment with my GP and was put on blood pressure tablets and the anesthetist was informed. By the time I had the operation my blood pressure came down to a safe level. I arrived at Blackheath hospital at 7:00am in the morning and Dr Rama came to see me and went through the procedure. I had the operation at around 11.00am. I started to arouse as soon as I came back to the ward but was very dozy, I slept most of the day. The following morning, I woke up at around 4:00am and with the help of a very nice nurse I got out of bed and went for a walk. To my surprise I felt fine and not in any pain. However, I did have about five little cuts on my stomach which have healed well. After two weeks I felt back to normal. I had the operation on the 6 July 2023 and weighed 16.11 stone. I now weigh 12 stone (15 May) and by the time a year is up I should have lost 6 stone. I feel amazing, I am no longer pre-diabetic and a paramedic at my GP’s surgery is looking into taking me off my blood pressure tablets as I’m now in the normal range. My asthma is much better too. Dr Rama was fantastic, he looked after me so well and I have no hesitation in recommending him. He gave me his mobile telephone number and I know I can contact him anytime, which is very reassuring. I’ve had two follow up appointments with him and was given a blood test to make sure everything was ok. I have not felt this well in a long time, just wish I had this procedure years ago. Thank-you Dr Rama, you have changed my life.

Very professional and reassuring. Very quick at responding

Solid diet/training regimen - thanks Rick/Jack!

Put me at ease and very helpful despite running late

I came in very nervous about my session as I have been struggling with my weight and health for a while. But after the first 5mins Rachel really made me feel comfortable and the plan that we came up with was really for me to follow at home. Cant wait for our next session!

Garry was fantastic, incredibly knowledgeable and explained all aspects of the evaluation and their results clearly. Very pleased to have had his guidance through it all
