I recently underwent surgery for an island flap reconstruction around a lesion site on my lower left leg, as well as a sentinel lymph node biopsy in my left groin. I am pleased to share my experience and provide a review of the procedure. My experience with the island flap reconstruction and sentinel lymph node biopsy was positive, and I am grateful for the expertise of Mr Damir Kosutic and the surgical team, my recovery is going very well. Mr Kosutic is a detailed surgeon and explains everything in an easy to digest manner, putting you at ease straight away. I am happy with my overall experience.

Excellent!

I would recommend Marcus without any hesitation, I recently had a bilateral breast reduction and my treatment from consultation to discharge was fantastic. Marcus has a knack of making you feel like you're his only patient and I felt in very safe hands. I had one small issue which was dealt with immediately. I'm extremely happy with the whole experience.

From the moment one discovers Jonathan (mine was from online research where many routes triangulated to him) I believe one feels in safe and superbly reassuring hands!. I felt Jonathan's interest in my concern was genuine, listening with concern and empathy whilst applying his clearly vast plastic surgery experience to understand the treatment protocols that would work best for me. The result of our initial consultation discussions meant I came away with a real anatomical understanding of the root causes of my concern along with a full explanation of the prescribed procedure and how/why it would work. This left me feeling there was a way forward and I was in the hands of someone who spent a lifetime perfecting his craft and I could relax in that knowledge. The post consultation follow up with reading materials and access to both Jonathan and his team put me at ease in readiness for my surgery with all the responses to my questions clearly thought through and patiently explained. I could also then clearly plan my work/personal diary around the treatment and recovery plan. This proved to be spot in hindsight! I have to admit that having had general anaesthesia before I was actually more confident in using this protocol for any surgery but when Jonathan explained why his clinic uses twilight anaesthesia for my treatment type (where you are at least aware of your surrounding vs being fully 'knocked out') I was happy to explore further and see if i could get ultimately confident with this approach as it of course feels different. Jonathan and his team encouraged me to read other's reviews and I chatted to a patient for their direct review. I was also reassured by the fact that Jonathan and his anaesthetist have conducted hundreds of operations using twilight and I thought to myself, had there ever been issues with this approach to an elective surgery he would indeed never use it! I am happy to inform that twilight anaesthesia really is as good as general anaesthetic - I think for this type of procedure it is perhaps better. The only notion of pain is the initial pin prick in the hand at 1/10 (which occurs for any type of surgery) and then I found myself in a completely blissed-out state not really conscious of what was going on. In addition, of course there is local nerve block anaesthesia applied all around the treatment areas so there is no sensation whatsoever of pain coupled with my mind being completely 'floating' and relaxed. The true advantage of twilight became even more apparent after the procedure as I came to very quickly, fully lucid and able to eat food within 20 minutes! Unlike general anaesthetic, i had no horrid sore throat and sick/nausea feeling for several hours after. Within an hour or so I was ready to be discharged and my head was clear for the recovery process. It was also explained by Jonathan that using twilight would aid recovery as it is less taxing on the system and allows for more of the body's resources to be channelled to the healing process. I am now four weeks into recovery and can go about my life fully (and have been able to for some days!). It has been reassuring that the team are proactive in setting up periodic consults with Jonathan to review progress at key landmark points and again I had the feeling of being in caring and highly professional hands by someone who wants the best outcomes technically and emotionally for his patients. Of course there is some residual redness and swelling but this again was explained, is expected and I know will fully subside in the coming weeks. I look forward to seeing the final results and have no doubt based on what I can see so far they will be fully natural, enhancing and refreshing me in the most natural way with any evidence of work inconspicuous!

Outstanding care and overall experience. Dr. Jatan explained everything to me and patiently answered all my questions. I am extremely grateful and appreciative of Dr. Jatan. I am healing well and am confident in the advice she provided.

Mr Whoo made me feel at ease every time I saw him , the day of the operation he made me feel that I was the most important person there and explained everything so clearly. He visited everyday to ask how I was getting on , thanks mr Whoo

My experience with Dr Awad has been fantastic. I knew from my consultation that I was in excellent hands as Dr Awad advised me on what was best for me and my body based on what I had asked for and he explained the entire process in great detail. He made me feel relaxed and comfortable, so I had no doubts about my operation at all. He has an incredibly gentle nature and really listens to you as an individual. I couldn’t recommend him enough and I feel so lucky to have been assigned to him as a patient. I’m thoroughly delighted with my results and I have had a completely seamless experience from consultation to the operation and end result. Thank you so much!

Andrea is great

Chris always takes time to make you feel heard. He genuinely cares about your symptoms and your experience. He is focussed and compassionate.

I can't rate Diana Slade-Sharman highly enough. At all times, I felt like I was in the most capable of hands, respected her professional approach and am very happy with the results of what was complex and major surgery.
