- Dr Girish performed my first (right side) hernia repair in 2018- my first hospital operation at the age of 59. Mr Girish was so kind and helpful during the initial NHS consutation and came across as a most experienced and accomplished surgeon. The procedure went very well, and seven years later when I needed the same operation on the left side I was very keen to see Mr Girish again! So, same charming man and same brilliant surgery at the Bushey Spire Hospital- I can't thank Dr. Girish enough!Doctor's response -Thanks for your kind review. I am glad you were happy with care delivered.
