- Very positive experience. Mr Agarwal discussed the procedure with me before and after operation. No complaints whatsoever. The staff at central Middlesex hospital and facilities there were excellent too.
- Excellent care. I am very pleased with the whole process. I was in for an inguinal hernia and had issues with high blood pressure but the operation went ahead with no problems. Dr Argwhal is also a very nice man and easy to get along with.
- I could not fault the clinical care I received from Mr Agarwal
