Olivia has two regular anaesthetists who regularly work with her and both are highly experienced with excellent bedside manner. They will ensure you are as comfortable as possible throughout your hospital stay. They both recognised providers with leading insurance companies other than BUPA. Their fees can be found on their websites – linked below.

Dr. James Sadler

James is a consultant anaesthetist and specialist in Intensive Care Medicine. He works regularly with Olivia during Tuesday afternoon operating lists.

Dr. Ralph Leighton

Ralph is a consultant anaesthetist and has worked regularly in the NHS with Olivia and now in Spire hospital. He works regularly with Olivia during Tuesday afternoon operating lists.

Occasionally another Consultant Anaesthetist will step in to work with Olivia.

If you would like to know who the anaesthetist will be for your operation, Gemma can confirm this for you once you have a date for surgery set.
