Really good appointment, he went over the whole procedure very clearly and simply, making me feel safe in his hands. It is clear he is knowledgeable and experienced, he does not downplay any complications but reassured me about everything.

Prof. Drew is absolutely the best! The surgery he performed for me is excellent and far exceeds not only my expectations but all possible outcomes I had researched and viewed online in the UK. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.

Prof Drew’s skill and competence in performing minimally invasive gyno surgery is astonishing - the residual external scarring is undetectable, the immediate result highly satisfactory and the care and attention fantastic. Can’t recommend him enough!
