- The whole experience was smooth and professional from the start and I am very pleased with the end results. Mr Agrawal explained everything clearly and answered any questions I had. My recovery has gone to plan and there is no pain or discomfort. I am grateful to Mr Agrawal and the rest of the team.
- I was very happy with his knowledge and work very greatful thank you
- Mr Agrawal explained everything clearly and provided a first class treatment to my issue. I am very pleased with the outcome and would recommend Mr Agrawal without hesitation.
- I can’t fault my experience at the Nuffield Brentwood. Mr Agrawal was kind and friendly and efficient. He gave clear explanations and treated me well. All the nurses and the anaesthetist were great too. The care and after care was also very good.
- Suggestions would be: • Have own fridge in the rooms. •I felt like the rehab team for post op were good overall but there was one nurse that was a little rough for my liking.
- Very happy and content
- Mr. Agrawal is a dedicated surgeon and cares deeply for his patients. He is straightforward to talk to, explains things clearly and has years of experience. He also goes above and beyond. Thank you again Sanjay. Jackie D. - Brentwood
