Reviews
Best experience I have ever had with any Doctor/consultant. Welcomes you in and makes you feel comfortable at all times genuinely cares, listens and wants to help you. Can’t recommend enough!
Saw me at very short notice for an ear problem. Amazing bedside manner, put me at ease throughout a slightly uncomfortable minor procedure. Delicate, careful and thorough throughout and explained everything.
I had total confidence and would highly recommend Mr Kelly.
Excellent care!
Our 14 year old daughter had a 5 year old cholesteatoma due to the failings of other doctors and ENT consultants. To cut a very long story short, our daughter had to give up a promising future in competitive swimming (already training with the England squad) because of her constant ear pain and recurring infections whilst the NHS fobbed us off at every opportunity.
When we finally got to see Mr Kelly, he was very kind, knowledgeable and put us at ease regarding the much needed surgery. The risks associated with surgery are never good and especially terrifying when it is your child, however, Mr Kelly laid out all the facts, and was extremely reassuring.
December 2023 - It was a long surgery to get rid of the cholesteatoma, which included a replacement titanium inner ear bone and an eardrum skin graft. Absolutely amazing!
8 months later we have just come home from a holiday where our daughter has been swimming in the sea for the first time in 5 years. Seeing her so happy again was the greatest gift I ever received.
Words cannot express the gratitude we have for Mr Kelly for giving our daughter her life back. We cannot recommend Mr Kelly enough and I for one will sing his praises until the day I die, happy that my daughter is happy.
Thank you Mr Kelly, and obviously, all the team associated.
This was one of the finest doctors I have come across (I am married to a doctor) and he was superb in managing my problem. He was kind, compassionate, gentle and put me at my ease. He made a potentially uncomfortable procedure palatable and his explanation were crystal clear and highly professional. I would have no problem in going back to see him and would highly recommend. He came highly recommended to me. My problem was quickly explained and a treatment plan set in motion-Well worth seeing
I saw Mr Kelly last year with problems with my Eustachian tubes and he listened thoroughly to every bit of information I gave him. He supported me with next steps forward until, as a last resort, I required surgery in April of this year. Mr Kelly thoroughly explained the surgey, what would be involved and was absolutely clear that it might not be successful. He was completely honest and was never misleading in any way.
Mr Kelly was extremely supportive prior to the op, answering any questions I had by email promptly and on the day spoke to me before and after the operation.
It was successful for me and I'm absolutely delighted with the result. I can't stress how much this has made a difference to me and it was all down to Mr Kelly.
I'd thoroughly recommend Mr Kelly. He's honest, supportive and brilliant at what he does.
Thank you so much for changing my life hugely and positively!
