Gastroenterology

Thank you very much for your kindness and professionalism

Colonoscopy carried out with care and a very good doctor, made sure I was comfortable during the procedure and responded timely to any discomfort I indicated. Thank you

My consultation with Dr. Smith was exceptional. He was approachable and easy to talk to about my concerns, listened with genuine empathy, and provided sound advice along with clear explanations of the next steps. I left the consultation feeling reassured and confident about getting back on track.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I cannot recommend Dr. Efe Ejenavi highly enough. I went into my consultation and subsequent gastroscopy carrying a great deal of anxiety. I have a longstanding throat phobia, and after weeks of upper abdominal pain, bloating, early satiety, burping and constant worry about what might be causing my symptoms, I was honestly terrified—not just of the procedure itself, but of what it might reveal. From the very first consultation, Dr. Ejenavi immediately inspired confidence. He listened carefully, never rushed me, took my concerns seriously, and explained everything in a calm, clear and reassuring way. At no point did I feel dismissed or like “just another patient.” He struck the perfect balance between professionalism, honesty and genuine compassion. On the day of my gastroscopy, I was extremely anxious. The nursing staff recognised this, and when Dr. Ejenavi came to see me before the procedure, he took the time to reassure me personally. His calm manner immediately reduced my anxiety. He explained what would happen, answered my questions, and made me feel completely safe in his care. The procedure itself was the exact opposite of what I had feared. Thanks to Dr. Ejenavi and his team, it was smooth, gentle and far easier than I could ever have imagined. Despite years of worrying about anything involving my throat, I experienced no pain and virtually no discomfort—just a little gagging for a few moments. In fact, I was even able to watch the procedure on the monitor while he carefully examined my stomach and took biopsies. It was over in around ten minutes, and afterwards I found myself wondering why I had been so frightened. Most importantly, Dr. Ejenavi gave me something I had been searching for over the previous two weeks: answers. Rather than leaving with more uncertainty, I left with a clear diagnosis of erosive gastritis, a treatment plan, follow-up arrangements and the reassurance that the rest of the examination was normal. After days of fearing much more serious possibilities, that clarity was invaluable. Technical expertise is something patients often expect from a consultant gastroenterologist, but what truly sets Dr. Ejenavi apart is the way he treats people. He combines excellent clinical knowledge with kindness, patience and empathy. He understands that treating a patient isn’t just about performing a procedure—it’s about helping someone through one of the most worrying moments of their life. To anyone who is particularly anxious about having a gastroscopy, especially if you have a strong gag reflex or a fear of throat procedures as I did, I hope this review gives you confidence. I was convinced it would be an awful experience, yet under Dr. Ejenavi’s care it was far easier than I ever imagined. Thank you, Dr. Ejenavi, not only for your expertise but also for your reassurance, compassion and professionalism. I will genuinely remember the care I received for a very long time, and I would recommend you without hesitation to anyone needing a gastroenterologist.

All the staff were polite, friendly and put me at ease. Dr Efe Ejenavi was kind and explained everything during the procedure

Dr. Smith was warm and welcoming, he explained everything throughly and took time to listen.
