Acceleratecic Recensioni 

I had my assessment at the lipedema clinic on 15 August 2026 and was extremely impressed with the service from start to finish. I was seen on time and welcomed warmly by the staff.
Sue was the nurse who carried out my assessment, and from our very first interaction she was incredibly welcoming, kind and reassuring. She immediately put me at ease, and I felt comfortable and relaxed throughout the appointment.
Sue carried out a very thorough assessment and provided me with all the information I needed, along with lots of additional advice on managing pain, wearing compression garments and appropriate exercises. She was extremely knowledgeable and took the time to answer all of my questions, and even went above and beyond with further advice and guidance.
I was particularly impressed by Sue’s professionalism, friendliness and genuine care. She made what could have been an overwhelming assessment feel comfortable and reassuring.
Overall, this was a fantastic service and I couldn’t have asked for a better nurse. Sue was absolutely amazing, and I’m very grateful for all her help and support. I would highly recommend the clinic to anyone attending for a lipedema assessment.

Great experience my 90 year old mum was well looked after

I have suffered with varying degrees of Gout and swollen legs for close to 10 years.....Following two leg DVT's everything below my waist seemed to change and somehow the medical team at my Doctor's Surgery did not know what was wrong with me. Following several research calls, I was pointed in the direction of Accelerate.....Living in Cornwall, we drove to Hackney and met Julie Chuter.....A few hours later and we have a pathway to improving everything that has caused me to be inactive and depressed. I now know I have Lymphoedema and have the tools to get going again...Not a cure but I feel I will regain my life. Thanks team NH x

My mother saw Natalie who was great, very understanding and helpful for her forthcoming needs.
We wasn't rushed and Natalie was friendly and pleasant throughout the appointment.

I was very impressed with the service and care I received. Anna was very knowledgeable and provided lots of advice and practical help. I was treated with dignity. I would highly recommend this service.

Third visit to Accelerate this time seen by a nurse called Sue. The usual very high level of service I have come to expect now. I actually look forward to coming here it's like you would imagine a paid private service would be.

I saw Natalie today, she absolutely knows her subject inside out. She gave me lots of helpful tools and ideas to decrease my pain levels and make life easier. She really set me at ease and made me feel like a person, not just a number. She showed empathy and understanding, which really made me feel heard, especially since I am having such a tough time with my condition. I would 100% recommend both the accelerate and Natalie.
Thank you

Anna Swinburn was amazing. She was knowledgeable, understanding and very helpful. I came out of the appointment feeling hopeful. Thank you Anna.

I booked a private appointment for a lipoedema diagnosis as my GP wouldn't refer me. The appointment was amazing. For the first time I felt listened to and acknowledged. I saw Rhodri who went through my medical history and why I thought I have lipoedema. He examined me, confirmed that I have lipoedmea as well as secondary lymphedema. He then discussed conservative measures and measured me precisely for leg compression garments. He explained that a report would be sent to my GP recommending referral to a local lymphedema clinic and asking the GP to do a prescription for the compression garments that would be fulfilled by Patient Choice. A doppler test was also undertaken. The report was written and a copy e-mailed to me the next day (very impressive). The cost was £250, but for a 90 minute appointment - cheaper than other alternative and for an appointment 3 times as long and I was measured for compression. I could not recommend highly enough. Worth every penny.

Very knowledgeable staff and everything about tests faultless

Professionalism throughput from the front reception team, to the nurse and the assistant serving in the food area. Very pleasant experience. Well done.

I had a really great experience with Anna. She made me feel very seen and heard I left feeling very good about the my diagnosis and really spent time uplifting me. The staff on reception are also very lovely too.

I arrived a few minutes late but was not made to feel guilty about it. Natalie was the person that I was with. She was friendly, approachable and immediately put me at ease. She was extremely knowledgeable and gave me lots of tips and basic information that I just had not thought of. She explained in depth about the type of footwear that was best for me, and why it was best for me. An absolutely thought provoking and positive experience. I feel like I got so much from this one visit, and have adopted the suggestions that Natalie advised. A really positive experience. I would highly recommend this place. Not only thanks to Natalie but to the lovely receptionist near the entrance.

I saw Anna a week ago and she was incredibly knowledgeable and professional in my diagnosis. She was patient, kind and spent a lot of time answering my questions. I would highly recommend Accelerate and Anna, it was a huge relief to be diagnosed and feel validated.

Had an appointment with Mel today at the Lymphoedema clinic at st Joseph’s hospice and Mel was kind very informative gave me lots of good advice and encouragement I left feeling relieved, heard and that she was putting into place lots for me to recover going forward, would really recommend the service and especially Mel who really put my mind at ease that with the support I can really maintain and keep control of my condition, I look forward to seeing Mel in another 6 months and hopefully she will be please with my progress

All staff were most lovely here and helpful. Thank you for listening and taking the time to understand my heath condition. Mel was fantastic A*

I really appreciate the great service you offered in the community .One day shadowing with lymphoedema nurses such a warm environment that embodies the core values of safe space. Grateful to work with your team today and thank you for the patients who allowed me to join in the assessment and review. I learned a lot and i will ensure i will share the courses you’ve shared and learnt today.

The entire team is wonderful! Codi (I hope I’m correct with the spelling) you are a star! I appreciate you all. Tremendous thanks!

I wasn’t that keen on having a foot check and nearly skipped it. After a really bad bout of gout last year though, and coming up to 64, I realised I needed to take better care of my feet.
The team at Accelerate Footchecks were friendly and put me at ease straight away. Natalie was very gentle and thorough, and everything was explained clearly so it all felt relaxed. I walked out feeling noticeably more comfortable and reassured. Glad I went and I’d recommend it to anyone who’s been putting it off like I was.
Thanks to Natalie and the team for making it such a positive experience. I will be back!

I was given excellent care and advice. I was given a thorough assessment and recommended podiatry footwear, plus provided with comfortable insoles which are helping. The podiatry care is excellent and I would highly recommend to others. Fran is amazing
