- Got gallbladder removal and umbilical hernia repair under Dr. Sasi. Dr. Sasi explained robotic surgery in terms precision, recovery, post operative discomfort in simple plain way. Post surgery i was back on my feet and recovering well. Dr Sasi and team were excellent.
- Mr Ramar is an excellent Dr and surgeon. He did a hernia fix and Nissan fudulopcation using the robotic. My recovery was amazing! I was in minimal pain after surgery and recovering was so much easier.
- My sincere gratitude for the exceptional care I received from Mr. Sasi Ramar during my recent bilateral robotic inguinal hernia surgery. My case was particularly complex due to pre-existing conditions of DVT and PE, however, Mr Sasi managed to do the surgery without any bleeding.
- Recently Mr. Ramar removed my gallbladder. His professionalism and humanity stand out. The speed of my recovery suggests he is also very, very skilful. I recommend him unreservedly.
- Simply first class! Met Dr Ramar on 31 March to discuss gallbladder removal, was booked in for surgery on 2 April. Surgery was perfect! Incisions neat and tidy. He worked with a robot, highly recommend! Don’t be put off by this, trust Dr Ramar’s decision making, he is the best!
- five star on everything!
- Brilliant and nice Consultant
- I had bariatric surgery on Monday 17th March. Dr Ramar was courteous and efficient, with a pleasant bedside manner. I am healing well, no issues and I am glad to have put my trust in his skills.
- I have no hesitation in recommending Mr Ramar. Prior to the operation, a primary repair of an inguinal hernia, he explained all that would happen. After the op he gave me a full account after what he had done. I am recovering well for which many thanks to Mr Ramar.
