I could understand what the Professor was saying and I think he could understand me. This has not always in the case at Chesterfield hospital. I felt comfortable in his presence which meant that I could explain my concerns easily and I felt he listened. Only after a short time I felt I could trust him. I was very surprised to learn that he did not consider me to have a prolapse. I only wish Professor Radley could have identified the specific reason for me having all these UTIs. I am very grateful to Professor Radley for seeing me.

I found it very beneficial to be able to consult someone who is a senior specialist in both urology and gynaecology and also the medical 'chaperone' was very helpful with advice and in helping to create a relaxed atmosphere. I felt able to ask all the questions about the issues that concerned me and I appreciated all the advice and explanations that were given. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend both Professor Radley and the hospital.

Review of Professor Stephen Radley I recently attended a private consultation with Professor Stephen Radley regarding my stage 2 prolapse. From the outset, he was extremely informative, taking the time to explain my diagnosis in detail and discuss future options, including possible surgery, ongoing care, and the use of a pessary. Following his advice, I had a pessary inserted, which provided immediate support. Four months later, I returned for a follow-up appointment where the pessary was reinserted. On this occasion, Professor Radley gave me thorough training on how to manage the insertion myself. This has been invaluable, as it allows me to self-care and avoid repeated long journeys from Lincoln to Sheffield. Throughout both visits, Professor Radley demonstrated professionalism, compassion, and a commitment to patient empowerment. His clear explanations and practical guidance gave me confidence in managing my condition. He also referred me to a nurse-led clinic for future follow-up, ensuring continuity of care and accessible support. I am very grateful for his expertise and the thoughtful way he tailored my care to my circumstances. Professor Radley’s approach has made a significant difference to my confidence and quality of life, and I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking specialist advice and treatment. Kind regards Dawn M.

Professor Radley was very professional but also very approachable. He listened as I explained my issues and after an examination, explained what the problems were. This explanation was clear and concise and made me feel much more informed about my condition. I am reassured that Professor Radley understands my medical issues and can offer a way forward, in helping me feel well again.

Professor Radley treated me with respect, compassion and professionalism during my initial appointment, during which time it became clear that an urgent procedure was necessary within the following few days. His management of my situation was speedy and efficient and I am happy that I have a good outcome. I am about to have my next procedure and have complete confidence in his skill and professionalism.
