Dr Olabambo Ogunbambi

Written by a NHS patient at Castle Hill Hospital

Superb, pleasant 'no nonsense' consultant. I found he listens carefully to what you have to say and acts on it - I'm not one for Idle chit chat, I just appreciate a professional who can help me when I need it with the minimum of fuss. If you're the same, then this chap is your man. I was referred to all the relevant specialists within a reasonable time frame and kept up to speed at all times. His communication with my GP is excellent. If you're referred to Dr Ogunbambi, be assured you're in good hands.

I am 82 and disabled, and had Pemphigus since 1986. Felt I needed to explain so you could appreciate what Dr Ogumbambi is up against. I saw him today at 4.30 and was the last patient so he must have been tired and weary of listening to patients but there was none of this. He saw me on time, he was so kind and patient and encouraged me to say it as it was as I am in chronic severe pain. He discussed every angle he could and was not offended when I suggested Fibromyalgia. If only all drs were like this. He is quite remarkable, compassionate, respectful and I would like to wish him well.

I cannot recommend this doctor enough. After years of been messed about by other consultants making my RA so out of control and getting into my lungs and effecting my every day life, I finally got put onto Dr Ogunbambi. He listens, cares never let's me leave without all the answers I need. Has ordered tests, bloods put me onto different surgeons hands/feet. Sees me every month to make sure I am OK and that things are not getting worse. One of the worst things about RA is feeling like no one cares or listens when after years of that I finally found a Dr who does. Thank you Dr Ogunbambi it means more than you realise.

We've been to see Dr Ogunbambi this morning for my husband & we were really pleased with him, we felt he was clear & confirmed he understood what we were saying correctly. He asked indepth questions to try to establish where my husband was feeling pain. He ordered bloods & xrays & was referring him to physio for an exercise plan (something within his capability to build on his base line & improve over time). He wants to see my husband again after the results are back to check there's not any further things that have been missed. He will write to our GP to tweak pain medication so it is more effective for my husband. We came away feeling very listened to & cared for & felt Dr Ogunbambi was going to do everything possible to help my husband to manage the chronic pain he is suffering with & improve his quality of life. Highly recommend this rheumatologist!

Didn't seem interested in at all in what I was saying.. Evidence showed I have osteoarthritis but claimed I had fibromyalgia which was a way of him telling me it was in my head!. He discharged me without telling me and now I'm left needing steroid injections in hips like I had last time but have no point of contact to arrange this due to no longer being under rheumatology. Would definitely not recommend him!.
