  • I had superb care from Professor Patel and his team. Every step of the way, from my first consultation, to diagnosis to surgery and after care was first class. I was very scared of surgery but was given so much reassurance and after care: my recovery was very straightforward.

  • Prof. Patel is exceptional, knowledgeable and always available. He checked on me the day after surgery. I feared keloid scarring, but my single-incision gallbladder removal left no mark. My recovery was fast I traveled a week later. No one could tell I had undergone the procedure
