Not good enough as a service

I have used it in the past and it was ok but this time around a very terrible experience. I made a booking for the 26th of March at 11.40 and turned up on time only to find out that my name wasn't on the list. I did receive an email form Top Doctors saying that my appointment was approaching but it looks like there wasn't much of communication between Top Doctors and the clinic.

When I arrived I had to wait an hour (time I had to take off work) only to be seen at 12.40.

For the amount of money that I spent, I won't be using it again.

A waste of time

1. Majority of search results are not available to book
2. I've found one that was available and booked an appointment.
3. Next day I get message that I have to contact the medical center myself on phone. Great! I would have done it myself in the first place if I could speak Spanish. But I don't, and I've mentioned that in comments to my booking.

Excellent Surgeon

I had the best care from Mr Chilcott for my Laproscopic Hysterectomy at Hillingdon hospital, from start to finish Mr Chilcott was very supportive, and went above and beyond to reassure me that everything would go to plan and comforted me. I cannot thank him enough for all the great support I had from him and his team. I would highly recommend him and the service.

Offered appointments unavailable

Looks like it is easy to make an appointment but then turns out that the times offered are not available after all. No-one answering the helpline so a pretty frustrating experience overall.

Dr Redfern Second to None

I had a hallux rigidus operation on my big toe. Dr Redfern is a consummate professional, My toe has healed extremely well and the scar is almost disappeared. I would highly recommend Dr Redfern to everyone I know.
I found him to be very compassionate and caring.

Totally incompetent.

I have just had the most incompetent so called adviser? booking clerk call me from Top Doctor.

No top doctor would ever instruct them in my humble opinion.
I am only a patient who has had private health insurance since 1964 when I was 7 years old.

I was offered an urgent second opinion in 4 weeks time.,by A I website?
This was cancelled 30 minutes later.

By ringing myself directly the wonderful New Victoria Hospital speaking to an old school very efficient PA secured an appointment in 5 days.

I have just taken the call from so called top doctors asking why I had cancelled my computer booked appointment for March.

I already have very serious Cardiac issues ,pacemaker,mitral valve.
Thus call just resulted in my blood pressure jumping from 90/70 at 7 am this morning to 201/130.

Thanks a bunch top doctor.

Poor experience from Dr Andrew Peter Holt

UPDATE 8/2/2024 - Topdoctors left me an answerphone message about this issue but now they are trying to get the review removed.

First time using the site. Booked a private messaging service with Doctor Andrew Peter Holt. It took a week for him to respond, which I get he may have been away, my issue was I paid £50 for 11 minutes and a reply to my message. Obviously he wants me to see him privately for £300 and I got that information but before I could reply to him he finalised the chat so I didn’t get the help I wanted and he got £50 for doing barely anything. He didn’t even ask if that was all I needed. Nowhere in the T&C’s when I signed up did it say it would be a limited interaction that the Dr can finalise when they want. I spoke to the customer services and just got “I don’t know what you want us to do” so no help at all.

However, we would be happy to help with this process.

Mr Matthew James is a fabulous surgeon

Mr Matthew James is a fabulous surgeon. He has now worked on me 3 times and the results are simply life changing. His workmanship is superb. His consultations are great. He explains everything fully and doesn’t leave any questions unanswered. He is very approachable and is available to text after surgery for any issues or questions, even over holiday times like Christmas and Easter. I’ve never felt so relaxed with a doctor. He has transformed my life for the better and would highly recommend him. His pa is equally as amazing.
Thank you Matt for your amazing work.

Negative experience with Dr. Dipesh Mistry and review process

* Edit in response to answer from Top Doctors below:
Even though the consultant is not able to see the review before it is published, they can tell whether a patient is likely to leave a negative review based on how the consultation went, whether the patient decides to continue treatment, the outcome of treatment, etc. They are therefore able to pick and choose the patients whose reviews they want to be published, as evidenced by the fact that Dr. Mistry and his secretary have continued to ignore my repeated requests to confirm my review. *

Do not trust reviews on this site - there is a major bias toward positive ratings. The system works so that although the consultants are unable to see the contents of the reviews, each review must be confirmed by the doctor as coming from a patient of theirs in order to be published. Based on how the consultation went and whether the patient decides to continue on, the consultant is likely able to get a sense of whether the review would be positive or not, and can thus pick and choose the patients whose reviews they confirm, while leaving others on hold indefinitely.

Last October, I had a very poor experience on a video consultation with sleep psychiatrist Dr. Dipesh Mistry. I subsequently left a review on Top Doctors, and have chased up several times with Dr. Mistry's secretary to have my review confirmed, but continue to receive no answer. I presume this is because the doctor knows my review would be negative based on how the consultation went, along with the fact I decided not to proceed with further treatment.

This is completely unfair - many of these consultants charge exorbitant prices, and patients should be able to have all feedback available to them in order to make an informed decision.

Hi Luca,

We are deeply sorry to hear about your experience and understand your frustration. At Top Doctors, we take all feedback very seriously and strive to maintain transparency and impartiality in our review system.

We would like to clarify that our review system is designed to ensure that only verified patients can leave feedback about their experiences with doctors. This is crucial to maintain the authenticity and relevance of the published reviews.

We understand your concern regarding the validation of reviews. Allow us to explain in detail:

1. Patient Verification: To ensure that reviews come from genuine experiences, we ask doctors to confirm whether the reviewer was indeed their patient. This does not mean the doctor sees the content of the review before it is published.
2. Impartiality of the Process: Doctors do not have access to the content of the review before confirming the authenticity of the patient. This process helps prevent fake reviews and ensures that all feedback is from real patients.
Additionally, we invite you to consult our policy and review process at the following link: https://www.topdoctors.co.uk/reviews-users-top-doctors/
We appreciate your patience and understanding as we continuously work to improve our system and service. If you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us directly. We are here to assist you.

Sincerely,
Top Doctors Team

The booking system for Top Doctors is…

The booking system for Top Doctors is very misleading. It gives the impression that they have access to the diaries of the doctors/consultants when in fact they don't.

I had booked an appointment for an employee which gave some level of optimism, however this was dashed.

Very disappointed.
