Medical services in Croydon

“I can highly recommend the back in shape clinic. I have had a back problem for the last 3 years which has prevented me from enjoying my usual activities After seeing various specialists I thought I would give these guys a try. My physiotherapist Anthony has been excellent. From day 1 he has explained everything clearly and precisely. His assessment and treatment of my issue has been exceptional. I am now starting to make good progress and am much more positive about my recovery. Thanks very much.”

“I've been training here for over a year and I'm having a really positive experience. The coaches are so friendly and welcoming which shapes the overall environment and atmosphere of the gym. Location is easy to get to and they have a variety of classes throughout the day. I highly recommend this place to everyone, but especially to women who are thinking about starting a martial art.”

“I came to see Poppy Simkins for a very advanced fungal infection on my big toe. I was feeling embarrassed and extremely uncomfortable about it, but from the moment I walked in, she made me feel at ease. Poppy was kind, non-judgmental, and spoke to me with real compassion. I haven’t even started the treatment yet, but I already feel confident that I’m in the right hands. I was really anxious before the appointment, but she completely reassured me. I can’t recommend her enough — a truly professional and understanding podiatrist. I will come back when I will have done these traitmentb”

“Had a lovely experience with Window To Womb Croydon. Have been here for several scans now and each time has been really great. All staff are really kind and attentive and they have helped rearrange appointments numerous times for me. Thank you so much. I really recommend.”

“I had a fantastic experience with Dental Beauty. Shailen has carried out multiple procedures for me recently, including a crown and white fillings and has been very professional on all occasions. Nadiia was a also a fantastic dental nurse and always made sure I was doing fine. This was a fantastic treatment all around.”

“So happy to have found a lovely boarding centre where we know our rabbit Harley will be well looked after when we're away. Lorraine clearly cares a great deal about the animals staying with her and we really appreciated that Lorraine shared a photo of Harley on the Now Boarding Croydon Facebook page while we were on holiday so we could see how he was getting on. Would highly recommend!”

“I came to see Olivia for my hip and side pain. Olivia was professional, consultative and holistic in her approach - which I value. She worked on me effectively and essentially took away pain I didnt know that I had. I have referred family members to her and will be back soon.”

“I've been a member of Croydon SoG since the age of 3. Now 30 years on, I am now a coach at the club and am one of the longest serving members. In a nutshell I've learnt so much from our Head Coach Jackie Lewis from being a gymnast to becoming a coach. She has mentored me all through my coaching qualifications and I'm still learning! I have a disability (Asperger's and Dyspraxia) so for me learning takes a lot longer but I have always felt included and gymnastics has given me so many opportunities I would otherwise never have had if it wasn't for the club and Jackie. From the first day Jackie entered me into my first competition, I was hooked. I eventually earned my place on the Disabilities National Squad which I was part of for over a decade and represented the club at national and international events. I became a British Champion in 2005 and became overall World Silver Medalist Silver with 2 apparatus golds at the Special Olympics World Games in Athens in 2011. The club is a great place for gymnasts and coaches and has a real family feel. Its open to everyone young or old and caters for all levels including children with disabilities and has a class for adults too. I highly recommend the club to anyone who wants to give their child a an opportunity to take part and perhaps go on to become a competitor in this wonderful sport. Gymnastics sets you up for life, physically, mentally and teaches you life skills as well.”

“My daughters both attend the children’s taekwondo here and are both very happy and love their classes and instructors. Great environment and reasonably priced. As I parent I feel very happy to have found croydon taekwondo and love watching my children grow and thrive under fantastic tuition Would highly recommend”

“Lovely vets, all staff really caring and friendly. Always helpful when I randomly call them for advice on my fur babies health. Been with them for about 10 years now wouldn't go anywhere else now.”

“We have always had amazing experiences with this vet. My dog hates the vets and they always do anything to make her comfortable. They sit on the floor with her and never offer treats (she has a bad tummy) which shows they have read her file.”

“We recently joined this vet for our cat. We needed to find a vet closer to home which is possible to get to by tram or bus, but also had the option of parking close by. We were very happy with the friendly and professional staff. They were supportive and informative right from when we first made contact over the phone, and again when visiting. The reception and examination rooms were very clean. I felt our cat was very calm throughout and we left happy customers.”

“I can't praise this dental practice highly enough. Had another routine appointment with the excellent Georgina (and lovely Klaudia) today. They are always so welcoming, friendly and professional. Georgina is always clear and reassuring with her assessment and advice. The only dentist I have had where I look forward to the appointment!”

“Absolutely lovely experience. Reception staff were super kind and helpful. When we had gone to another vet clinic privately, the vet had no idea what was causing my dog’s coughing and sent us for a £1,300 heart scan that we couldn’t afford to ‘investigate further’, with no other options offered. Here, at PDSA, the vet was very knowledgeable and told us that the dog has a healthy heart, just needed worming treatment. For £10, my dog’s coughing and choking is already gone after less than a week! I’m incredibly happy and so grateful!”

“Obi and his team are amazing. They all care and everyone takes their time make sure you know exactly what is going on. If you want your pets in the best hands, this is the place to come. Special shout out to Jess!”

“Used for a 8yr old kids birthday with the footie dude, Ben Judge. What a legend he was! Super friendly and attentive and inclusive to the kiddies. Really made the day special. Rest of the venue is clean and lots of parking and easy to find. Recommended.”

“I get my cat's litter from the shop. Reasonable prices and mostly friendly staff. Clean and tidy.”

“Never liked talking my problems out always bottled stuff up. Self medicated, thought I knew best. It doesn't work trust me. Just try talking to a stranger, it does help. Found it very helpful just unloading a few problems, small steps. worth giving it a go.”

“I called for an emergency appointment got one the same day. I am a nervous person when it comes to go to the dentist. But today I felt at ease . Lovely dentist who helped with my problem. And he’s assistant Faye was also brilliant. Couldn’t have had a better experience. Receptionist was great and gave a friendly welcome. Thank you .”

“My go-to supermarket for freshly made naan bread. They have an oven at the rear of the store. Also has a huge selection of spices, dried fruits and nuts, in store butchers, plenty of other cultural foods catered for than just middle Eastern. Does great selection of baklava, Turkish delights, and other snacks for those with a sweet tooth. Fresh naan bread is £1 for 3. Friendly staff.”

“As a keen runner and cyclist I knew in the back of my mind that I should probably do some strength training, but never really got round to it. I was diagnosed with osteopenia and that was the moment I decided that I had to take strength training more seriously…if only I knew where to start… That’s where Bea came in; she focussed on my diet, gave 1:1s with the right amount of challenge and wrote useful training plans. It’s been a real voyage of discovery. I could hardly lift a 6kg kettlebell when I started, but 11 months on I have progressed to 55kg squats. I really recommend training with Bea. She is professional, has lots of pearls of wisdom from her own experiences (duathlons, marathons, ironman, powerlifting) and has great attention to detail to help you reach your goals. I never thought I would enjoy strength training but that’s what comes with having a great PT!”

“Regular patient to see Tom Ward excellent facility clean & tidy”
