- I cannot recommend this service enough from ease of booking, great communication through to the day of the minor op, constantly keeping me informed of what was happening, what I would feel and then post care info and help. It was so easy and professional.
- Mr Georgios Pafitanis is brilliant. I saw him for a lipoma hurting my self esteem and was treated with kindness and sensitivity. I was made aware of treatment options I didn't know existed and it showed me how much he truly cares about his patients. I cannot recommend him enough!
