  • I had my breast augmentation and lift with Mr Sankar and to say I am over the moon with the results would be an understatement! From the very first consultation Mr Sankar was very informative and ensured I was fully prepared for surgery. Thank you so much, I couldn’t be happier!

  • Mr Sankar recently performed my breast augmentation surgery with great results. I chose Mr Sankar as my Surgeon from recommendations from colleges at the NHS hospital he works at. Not a man of many words but honest, professional & informative. Respected cosmetic surgeon!
