- A friend recommended Mr Aho for the 'life changing' experience they said they had experienced after a HoLEP operation by him. Looking at the stats on available urologists who could undertake the operation, Mr Aho stood out and having now had the procedure I can understand why. An excellent, fully engaging reassuring manner. I would highly recommend him too.
- Mr Aho was courteous, knowledgeable and professional throughout. His knowledge was obvious as all of my symptoms and experiences were explained carefully and confidently, and I Immediately understood why I was suffering, and how that would be alleviated or removed by my HoLep procedure. My surgery was exemplary, and Mr Aho explained everything both before and after, clearly and concisely. I was highly impressed by his skill and professionalism and would strongly recommend him.
- First class procedure by MR Tev Aho in the comfortable Princes's Grace Hospital. Life improving results, could not recommend more highly
- Mr Tev Aho provided exceptional care during my HoLEP surgery. The procedure was smooth, recovery was fast, and I was discharged the next day. I even travelled to the USA a week later with no issues. His clear, reassuring guidance made all the difference. Months on, I’m fully back to normal. I highly recommend Mr Aho for prostate treatment.
- I am a Medical Consultant and have a good understanding of my prostate problem I was suffering from. I was referred by my local Consultant Urology colleague to Mr Tev Aho as HOLEP is not available locally. Though my appointment with Mr Aho was via MSTeams I was reassured by his manner and professional experience that I was in safe hands. I had my HOLEP procedure done at Princess Grace Hospital in London. The pre admission and the admission process was conducted smoothly. Having a large prostate
- Mr Aho was particularly reassuring about the HOLEP procedure and what it would entail, the initial stay in hospital and the recovery process and how long it would take. Absolutely everything he mapped out pre op actually turned out exactly as planned and recovery now complete and life back to "normal". Very fortunate in that my consultant in Scotland recommended I see Mr Aho in London
- I saw Mr Aho for HoLEP treatment for a very enlarged prostate (BPH) at PGH. I was able to alter the timing of my pre-admission check-up, though I was bombarded with emails asking me to complete pre-admission forms even after I had done so. PGH staff were friendly and helpful and I didn't feel pressured to vacate the room on the day of departure. The food was fine. The op went according to plan, so I didn't have to test the "back-up" arrangements. All-in-all it was a satisfactory experience.
- Not hard to see that he’s number 1 in his field , great job done changed my life that’s for sure highly recommended
- I am recovering very well totalling free of burning pain. I am very satisfied with the outcome of your treatment. Thank you very much. I would certainly recommend your treatment to friends and colleagues who may require it.
