I saw this Dr (I say Dr lightly ) last week . I came away having an anxiety attack . Never been so upset . Disregarded anything I had to say or what I had already been diagnosed with . It’s 2023 and he was looking at MRIs from 2008 and saying there’s nothing wrong with me when I’m fact since then I’ve already had pituitary brain surgery and the neurologists doing that who did mri on my brain after for a base line after surgery has found something else either benign pathology or a low grade glioma . They transferred me to a local neurologist to help me so that I’m not travelling for miles . Instead I’m greeted with someone with no bedside manner , not looking or believing my recent history etc etc . Never had such a bad experience with a dr (and I’ve had a few believe me ) . Not to mention he was running late (I was only 2 on list but he arrived v.late ) and dresses in what looked like joggers and a T-shirt .

Awful awful experience with this person (sorry but I don't regard him as a 'Doctor' - a person is only a doctor if they have the necessary skills, of which I saw very few). First time I saw him he seemed very keen to help, but it was obvious he had no idea about my health conditions. He agreed to do MRI scans. Went back at a later date and he just sat at his desk like a statue of stone, no greeting, no smile - it was very very peculiar. It wasn't very long before I decided to get out of there fast (if there's one thing he's good at it's making you feel totally unwanted and unwelcome). It was supposed to be a 30 min appointment, but only lasted 10 minutes maximum. If that's what he does to everyone then I can't help wondering what hobbies he pursues in his spare time. I couldn't possibly recommend him to anyone - that would be risky.

Saw Dr Redmond privately. He failed to diagnose and treat a serious condition. I felt I wasn’t listened to by this consultant and he made no effort to try and get to the bottom of my problem despite me being in a lot of pain. I also got the impression he wanted me out of the door asap as he obviously had no idea what was wrong. I was sent back to my gp with painkillers (which didn’t work unsurprisingly). Thankfully after seeing another consultant I was immediately put on the correct treatment for my condition. I do not recommend Dr Redmond, my visits were a total waste of time and money.

Absolutely awful experienxmce with this man. Did not allow me the time to speak, was very rude and obnoxious. Refuses requested mri's and tells you what you have is all in your head. Told me i was obsessed with scans when i requested one as he had refused my drs referral. Finally had scan which lead to many others and discovered i have MS. He left me in the worst possible state ever. He may have experience in neurology but he lacks people skills. Quite frankly the worst i have been treated ever in a medical way.

This doctor simply does not listen to you. He will not be prepared for your arrival and will not have read your notes. He will not pay any attention to anything you bring with you. He will ask a few simple questions & reach for a prescription pad or made his referral. I am of the strong opinion that he is simply filling in the NHS hours so that he may do his private consults at the BMI hospital down the road, Dr Redmond does not provide Neurology services through the NHS in anything but name. He is simply interested in completing forms, hitting management KPIs & avoided. If you have a telephone appointment the experience is worse. Hard to believe that is possible, but it is. On a positive note with a telephone appointment, the results will be the same (ineptitude, mediocracy and indifference) so you will have saved yourself some transport costs. In all likelihood, the appointment will not happen as he will let the phone ring twice and then mark you as 'not attended'. Best avoided.
