First class exceptional consultant

Very nice and put me at ease and explained everything well

He was informative and explained what he was going to do. He was caring and understanding of me being an anxious patient. I was only shown kindness. Which very much helped me through the procedure

The service I have received has been exemplary and faultless, I could not have asked for anything more from Mr Arulampalam. At my first consultation he immediately put me at ease, explaining the procedure clearly, and the benefits and risks of it. On the day of the operation his bedside manner made me feel much calmer and I knew I was in good hands. The operation went as planned, i was in near zero pain in the days after the op. He called me the next day to check in, provided me with clear instructions on how to speed up the healing process, and at my post op appointment he was pleased to see I had fully healed. He has changed my life for the better and I really can't thank him enough.

Mr Arulampalam was so lovely and made me feel at ease and less nervous, was very friendly and explained everything really well and clearly. During the procedure he explained what was going on and how everything was going and again explained everything sensitively and clearly and put me at ease.

Outstanding. In my final consultation Professor Tan also explained future lifestyle changes that could have a positive impact. In his words, he’s not just here to fix the immediate issue, he wants to ensure his patients look after themselves in the future as well. That distinguishes someone who his just doing their job and someone who genuinely cares and goes the extra mile. “Tan the Man”. Thank you!
