What our patients
say about us

"Last year, after suffering from ongoing lower abdomen pains and concerns that I had endometriosis, Mr Athanasias performed a laparoscopy on me. From the initial consultation to the operation itself, Mr Athanasias was incredibly helpful, friendly and professional. I had seen a number of consultants already to rule out bowel conditions and it was refreshing to be seen be somebody who really listened to me and genuinely cared. He explained the process in detail and then straight after the operation, took me through the photographs of his findings to explain everything to me. Fortunately I did not have endometriosis but he found a small cyst in my Fallopian Tube and some adhesions which he successfully removed. I recovered well from the operation and at my follow up consultation Mr Athanasias went through all the details with me. I am now 25 weeks pregnant with my first baby which is extremely exciting. I will be truly grateful to Mr Athanasias for the fantastic service he gave me and would highly recommend him to any women who need to undergo gynaecological operations."

Laparoscopy

"I felt happy to explain all my symptoms to Mr Athanasias, who spent an incredible amount of time going through all options available to me, he was very informative and I was comfortable with his recommendations and my choices. My operation was carried out swiftly and my recovery was problem free. Mr Athanasias listened and provided solutions even outside of his area of expertise and my life has certainly changed for the better."

"Following on from my final appointment with Mr Athanasias on Tuesday evening, I would like to express my infinite thanks to him for all that he has done. From my initial consultation I felt at ease as he explained things in a way that was easily understood and finally acceptable to me. Despite the operation being such a major procedure I have experienced virtually no pain and only very little discomfort. Due to his patience, knowledge, articulation and, ultimately, his overall skill I couldn't have asked for a better Consultant. Once again, I thank you."

I'm so glad I found Dr Athanasias. He has helped me through issues with fibroids in a way that made me feel very reassured. He is obviously incredibly knowledgeable but explains things in a simple way, and really cares about you and getting the right outcome.

Fibroids

Mr Demetri Panayi seemed very knowledgeable and understanding of my high-grade dyskaryosis condition. He could describe my symptoms even before I expressed them myself. He made me feel very safe in his care, and very at ease. He seemed hugely sympathetic and compassionate when discussing the pain I have been in for so long. I finally have hope that my condition will improve with his support.

Mr Panayi was calm and professional and that really helped set me at ease particularly having to discuss something I felt was embarrassing. He explained the options clearly and I was able to make an informed decision. I have just had my six week check up after surgery and am very pleased – I feel like I have my body back again!

I have seen Mr Panayi several times over the past 18 months for a bladder condition. It was such a relief to find a specialist who was knowledgeable and reassuring. He took plenty of time listening to my symptoms and booked me for a cystoscopy to confirm his diagnosis. His calm, sympathetic approach really put me at my ease and allowed me to see a path to recovery. He also referred me to a women’s health physio to help with related pelvic floor issues. I highly recommend Mr Panayi and can’t thank him enough for seeing me through a very challenging time.

My husband and I are indebted to Mr Athanasias for his care and support after our miscarriages. He enabled us to get all the investigations we wanted carried out, listening to our concerns and offering encouragement and advice. When falling pregnant again, it was anxious time but Mr Athanasias gave us the reassurance we needed through additional scans and throughout all of our appointments we never felt rushed but instead felt that time was taken to explain things and answer all of our questions. Mr Athanasias prescribed us with a combination of medication which proved successful for us and we are now proud parents of a beautiful baby girl! We cannot rate Mr Athanasias highly enough!

I immediately felt comfortable with Mr Panayi, as he has a calm, friendly and caring manner. He clearly explained the treatment options, pros and cons of each, the risks and recovery. All my concerns and questions were answered fully and without rushing. In addition, he and Amy (private secretary) went to great lengths to arrange the surgery to fit in with my needs; a mean feat against the background of Covid-19. I feel confident that we shall achieve the best possible outcome.

Although I see Mr Panayi privately this is the first time I had a telephone consultation due to the present problem concerning chronic UTIs. The appointment was made on short notice due to the urgency & I was given an urgent appointment & Mr Panayi phoned us on time listened to all my problems & explained to me clearly & took his time to explain everything & his secretary Amy hand-delivered the prescription due to the postal delays. Well done Amy.

Mr Panayi was highly professional and knowledgeable. He quickly homed in on a course of action, and I feel confident in the advice I received from him. He was also sensitive and caring about a problem that has caused me some distress in recent months. I wish I had made an appointment to see him earlier!

I was recommended to Mr Panayi by a friend and have been treated very well, finding him very approachable and thorough. In making a decision to undergo surgery I feel very well informed and comfortable that I am being looked after by someone who genuinely wants to offer the best options available to me but also takes care to listen to any concerns I may have. I feel that I been treated with great empathy which has been very important and makes me feel very positive about further treatment.
