Review

 

My son is about to be discharged from Miss Ashby's clinic, following three years under her care. From the first visit and on every subsequent visit, she has taken time to explain everything to us. On two operation days, she was caring and compassionate. The operations have made a significant difference to my son, and have both been straightforward in recovery. We are so grateful to have been under her care.

Miss Ashby operated on my son two years ago and has regularly seen us in clinic since then, helping us decide when a second operation would take place. She was reassuring and skillful during the procedure and has always explained things so clearly and taken time to listen to any questions we had.

Our son has been in Miss Ashby's care for nearly 3 years. She is an incredible consultant who has listened to us every step of the way and has never made us feel like any worry or concern we have had wasn't important. She explains things thoroughly and is always happy to answer any questions. She is incredible with our son aswell. Miss Ashby made a very tricky and long operation for our son that little bit more bearable for us all, and the after care he received from her was second to none. I would highly recommend Miss Ashby and would like to thank her for everything she has done for our son so far.

What an amazing lady Miss Ashby is. We first took my son to see Miss Ashby 3 years ago now and she quickly diagnosed him with Perthes Disease. It wasn't a very pleasant time but we have always felt in the best possible hands with support, ideas, assistance and care. Whenever our son had dips in his condition we were able to see Miss Ashby quickly and put our minds at rest. We can't thank her enough for her care over the 3 years.

My son is currently under the care of Miss Ashby following a Perthes diagnoses in March last year, since the day I, We (my partner and I) and my Son H met Miss Ashby we immediately felt at ease, she has gone above and beyond for H and continues to do so, we fully trust all the decisions she makes and she always makes a huge effort to involve H in all chats and decisions we all make. She recently along with another fantastic surgeon preformed an operation on H for 6 hours plus and we had no doubt it would be a success - which is was! We love seeing Miss Ashby and we have so much to thank her for.

Kind and thorough in our appointment. Dr Ashby took the time to listen and answer our questions. She was able to talk with my 4 year old daughter and encourage her to partake in the necessary tasks to assess her condition. Always happy with the treatment within her care.

My daughter has been under the care of Miss Ashby for around two years now, concerning a number of paediatric issues. Miss Ashby has consistently provided an extremely high level of care and professionalism, regularly going beyond expectations, with a willingness to ensure my daughter received the best possible surgical and non surgical treatment going forward. Thank you for going out of your way to help!

My 11 year old daughter remains under the care of Miss Ashby’s following complex knee surgery last year. In each of our appointments, Miss Ashby has been really informative, patient and thorough with the care and attention she has given and also saw us immediately after the surgery took place to inform us of how it went and what to do in the following days and weeks. We feel extremely well looked after, reassured and never rushed when in the appointments.

My nine year old was seen by Miss Ashby who was kind, explained the process and findings in detail and we left feeling we had gone "private". Delighted with the experience.
