- There is no one in this world better than Tom. He is kind, he is honest, he is calm, he made me feel so safe and I completely trust him. He has done both of my children and I would only ever go back to him if I were to have another one. I couldn’t recommend him more. He is just the best. I have never felt so at ease and more trusting in another persons hands.
- I have been seeing Mr Tom Setchell for many years. He manages to combine exceptional technical genius with an extraordinary bedside manner. He is completely professional and incredibly kind. As a patient, I think trust in your Dr is paramount. Of the many Drs I have seen throughout my life, Mr Setchell is the very best and I feel totally confident in putting my healthcare in his hands.
- Mr Setchell is superb. He is very attentive and his level of care is phenomenal. I have known him for many years and he truly goes above and beyond to make you feel at ease. I would highly reccomend him.
- Saw Mr Setchell a few times in the last year. He has been extremely caring and supportive with my gynea questions and problems. He is truly so nice rare doctor to find these days!!
- Saw Tom Setchell for post-menopausal concerns. The consultation felt dismissive and judgemental. Instead of discussing menopause symptoms, focus was placed on STIs despite my long-term monogamous relationship. I was unheard and unsupported. i do not recommend this person.
- Over the last year, I’ve spoken to a lot of doctors, but Mr. Setchell has been by far the most understanding and compassionate. I have a complex case of endometriosis and had been feeling pretty hopeless before speaking with him. He was honest and didn’t sugarcoat anything, but still made me feel genuinely cared for. For the first time since being diagnosed, I felt truly listened to and reassured. I’m so grateful to have found him.
- Dr Tom Setchel has been my doctor since the birth of our first child in 2014. His experience, professionalism and kindness were essential in assisting me and my family during my pregnancies and the birth of our 3 children. We are very grateful to have found such great professional!
- Mr Setchell is both professional and kind and takes the time to thoroughly explain all aspects of procedures properly and in layman’s terms. I feel able to trust him with my care and have no doubts about his expertise and high standards. He will always be highly recommended!
