Mr Alex Shipolini is a highly skilled surgeon who is the top of his field. If you ever have him as a surgeon, you truly will be lucky to be under such great care. He has performed 2 open heart surgeries on me over my lifetime. The first when I was in my 60s and the second in my 80s. The second one was incredibly complex and performed as an emergency as a TAVI that I had put in, moved and ruptured my aorta. The operation for my TAVI was not performed by Mr Shipolini. Mr Shipolini removed the TAVI, performed a CAGB and did an aortic valve replacement. I am now approaching my 85th birthday and I'm still alive! I walk everyday unaided and I am incredibly happy. I definitely owe my life to him twice over. Mr Shipolini has extended my life and given me many extra years to enjoy with my family. I will forever be grateful and indebted to him. What a wonderful, caring surgeon. I would highly recommend him to others.

I really cannot thank mr shipolini and the entire team enough. The huge surgery he performed so efficiently on my father will leave us forever in his debt. My lovely dad has done everything he could in the last 20 years to extend his life expectancy and improve his heart health. Unfortunately genetics and an earlier uninformed lifestyle took its toll. When he was 58 when I was pregnant with my second child, my darling dad had a heart attack. It was devastating but luckily my dad recovered. What the team doesn’t know is that my dad wasn’t just a dad to me. My partner died of a genetic heart condition FH at the age 37. I was 34 with a 10,4 and 1 year old. My dad stepped into the father figure role and really guided my children when they needed someone they could depend on. What they also didn’t officially know but my dad probably told them is that I’m a healthcare professional and I also work for Bart’s health. I’ve never been more proud to work for such a fantastic organisation. I know there will come a time when we have to let my dad go but it’s not immediately now and we have the amazing staff at Bart’s to thank for that. Please make my review public, please let me shout from the highest hill how amazing I think you all are and how i can never thank you all enough. You are all angels, this Christmas will be extra special along with every extra minute we have with husband, grandad and to me, my most fabulously amazing dad. Thank you for fixing not only his broken heart but all of ours too

Twenty one years ago today Mr Shipolini saved my life after performing a bypass operation and my family and I are eternally grateful for what he did. I live a a full and active life and will never forget Mr Shipolini’s skill and kindness not only to me but also to my family. Thankyou is not an adequate word but I mean it sincerely.

Mr Alex Sipolini is probably the best cardiac surgeon in this country. I was referred to him for surgery for obstructive cardiomyopathy needing septal ablation and mitral valve repair. Mr Shipolini is the most pleasant and approachable person and you gain the confidence on your first meeting with him. You gain the confidence that you’re in a safe hand. He visited me every day after my surgery and made sure all the management was being done properly. You gain the confidence that all will be done properly. I have recovered well from my surgery and thanks to Mr Shipolini that the result has been excellent. I wish him all the success in future.

I was referred to Mr. Shipolini by Professor Perry Elliot's clinic at St Bartholemews in London UK. Mr. Shipolini is extremely approachable, friendly, kind and competent. He always listens and shows a genuine personalized interest in his patients. His genuine and kind demeanor coupled with his professionalism and competence is, in my opinion, what has led him to become a stellar cardiothoracic surgeon but without the arrogance often seen. Mr. Shipolini did a surgical left septal reduction and managed to repair my mitral valve with such extreme skill, cardiac imaging technicians could not believe I ever has a mitral regurgitation problem!! Mr. Shipolini is a highly talented cardiothoracic surgeon and well deserves his amazing reputation. I feel privileged and lucky to be one of his patients.
