We feel extremely fortunate to have had both our children, each with similar congenital heart problems, under the outstanding care of Professor Daubeney over the last ten years. He has guided us through difficult and emotional times, including open heart surgery for both children, making every necessary step of the way so much easier through his reassuring and calm manner. Due to his professionalism, extensive knowledge and obvious dedication to each patient’s welfare, we have trusted in his advice entirely and continue to do so. Furthermore, we were extremely impressed by the excellent communication between Professor Daubeney and each member of the close knit team that was involved in our children’s time in hospital. During this time, as well as in the run up to and after the surgeries, Professor Daubeney’s gentle approach when engaging with the children has also made them feel positive about ‘going to the doctor’. In addition, we feel that it has been very easy to communicate with Professor Daubeney in between appointments when there have been urgent issues.

We have been Professor Daubeney for some years now for our young son and his care, professionalism and expertise have been exceptional, both with our son and with us as parents. He takes the time to explain and ensure we are clear, as non-medical people, and he does so in a calm and considered manner. He has also made some recommendations and referrals to other experts in accompanying fields and they have also added well to the overall care we are receiving as a family, all of which has been much appreciated

Professor Daubeney has been very patient care/focused throughout, very caring, understanding and reassuring and always contactable when we have needed him. He is incredibly knowledgeable in his field and has managed our daughters condition very effectively with great clarity of communication. An amazing professional service always provided by Sophie his secretary who is always very contactable, very polite, calm and Uber quick to get us a response from Professor Daubeney. Very efficient and proactive at booking appointments and anything that needs organising. A nice friendly voice at the other end of the call always which is so nice when you are worried about something. The whole experience for us has been absolutely fantastic!

Professor Daubeney has looked after our son over the last couple of years with absolute professionalism. He is clearly an expert in his medical knowledge but he is also calm and considerate. He quietly assesses each situation and investigates them with the utmost care and attention. When it is your child that needs medical care, you want to feel you are in the best possible hands and we could not recommend Professor Daubeney more highly.
