My experience with Mr. Windsor was exceptionally positive, and I highly recommend him to anyone seeking medical care.From the moment I entered his office, Mr. Windsor greeted me warmly and made me feel welcome. Throughout our consultation, he was incredibly clear in his explanations, ensuring that I understood every aspect of my medical situation.. His communication style was both professional and compassionate, and I felt genuinely cared for throughout the appointment.What truly impressed me was the post-appointment letter I received from Mr. Windsor. Not only did it match the details of our discussion accurately, but it also served to reclarify the key points of our consultation. This level of attention to detail and follow-up further demonstrated Mr. Windsor's commitment to providing thorough and personalized care to his patients.In summary, I cannot speak highly enough of Mr. Windsor's professionalism, kindness, and dedication to his patients' well-being. It is evident that he goes above and beyond to ensure the comfort and understanding of those under his care. I wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Windsor to anyone in need of medical assistance

Dr Windsor helped me so much to understand my situation and the options for treatment. He was so patient and welcoming to my questions as well as very knowledgeable of course. I am so lucky to get to see him.

My OP appointment with Mr Windsor was exemplary. He himself was excellent, kind, empathetic and very professional , and it was obvious that he was a very experienced clinician and surgeon. He offered very sensible advice and is undertaking appropriate further tests. I felt very confident in his opinion. And his team (his nurse and medical administrator) were excellent too, very helpful, friendly and professional. Altogether, a great team, whom I shall be very happy to see again if required.

Long experience shows - very calm & relaxed even in awkward situations, never flustered. Great manner out-of-greens, too - more like chatting with an old mate, without letting his professional guard down too far!

From the first visit to the post surgery visits every day in hospital, Mr Windsor made me feel listened to, and was able to reassure me by explaining the process and reasons for the surgery, and then making me feel confident in my recovery. He appears to me as being an excellent and skilled surgeon. I cannot judge the follow up as I am only seeing him in May. Most surgeons, when they have done their part, do not take care of the next steps, but in his notes doctor Windsor already is thinking of whom I should consult to avoid the need for another surgery need later on.
