Professor Sutcliffe is a stand-out paediatrician and physician. We have seen him with our children and he has been consistently excellent.

Professor Sutcliffe alongside many other amazing staff oversaw my sons care at T11on UCLH for 4 years between 2016-2020. Aways at the forefront of ideas and trying out new things, professor Sutcliffe was a very proactive doctor and my son benefitted from his care and support. I cannot thank him enough for his reassurance and support over the years with my son Leon, even in life threatening situations where my son was gravely poorly. A call with Professor Sutcliffe this week was so helpful in the sense of the future and hope, especially with advances in science and genetics, with a chain of thought that diagnosis in the future via genetics or proteomics/AI was very possible. It’s been nearly 4 years since he saw my son, but he remembered so much - it was amazing to hear and I felt very humbled. Some really thoughtful suggestions and ideas An amazing doctor - genuinely one of a kind. Sensitive, good people person, wonderfully warm and kind. One of the best paediatric consultants we have in the UK. Thank you Lyn, Leon and Ian

Prof Alastair is truly one in a million! We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude and wholeheartedly recommend Professor S, for his exceptional care of my son during the many years of admissions on T11 at UCLH. Professor Alastairs remarkable combination of empathy and extensive knowledge in the field is truly commendable. Not only does he stay up to date with the latest scientific developments & innovations , but his presence is so warm and bright. He always had a rejuvenating effect on our son (and us as well) ! A very empathetic doctor, he always left us filled with optimism for the future. I am immensely grateful for Professor Alastairs expertise and compassionate care, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking quality peadiatric care.

Professor Sutcliffe was one of the first people to see our son when he was rushed into Broomfields hospital recently, and his experience and knowledge to identify the problem and prompt need for strong IV antibiotics no doubt saved our son’s life as he also had sepsis on top of the diagnosed psoas abscess. We owe so much to his care, quick thinking and leadership of the (incredible) team. The Professor listened to us and our son, both together and separately, explaining his symptoms and understanding that we knew he wasn’t well. At a time of immense stress, the reassurance and confidence we felt from his approach helped our son feel less anxious and us as parents extremely content that we were in the best of hands. The Professor involved our son in our discussions and treated him as an individual. His bed side manner was both professional and calming at a time of incredible stress. We will always owe so much to Professor Sutcliffe - if you are lucky enough to be in his care then you are truly blessed.

I recently saw Prof Sutcliffe with my 6 yr old daughter, it was our 2nd appointment. He listened to our complaint with real interest & compassion. I never once felt rushed, or that I was saying was not being taken seriously. Prof Sutcliffe was not afraid to offer up other contacts if he felt he could not help in a particular area. But, the real beyond care came when my daughter had actually left that appointment and was not due to be seen again. upon running out of meds prescribed by Prof Sutcliffe, I experienced nothing but grief, trying to get them again from our own doctor ... despite Prof Sutcliffe sending a letter to them explaining how important this was. Reluctantly, I had to go back to Prof Sutcliffe & ask for extra correspondence between himself & my daughters surgery. This carried further issues as my doctor will neither see me or speak to me. I have been informed by the secretary that I should now be dealing with 'meds management' which again, is not an entity you can either see or speak to. an e.mail is the only contact & they too, don't reply. I have had to go back & forth to Prof Sutcliffe & he has done his upmost to fight this battle with me. He even prescribed us the meds we need himself to keep us going (while he continues to get through to someone our end) & took the time to see us at very short notice, with no appointment to get us this prescription. He has gone above & beyond to help us when he didn't need to. Unfortunately you don't receive this kind of care from a doctor often these days. It has instilled hope & I can confidently say - Prof Sutcliffe is exactly where he should, in the role which he currently resides.
