Cosmetic (Aesthetic) Medicine, Plastic Surgery
I have recently had breast surgery with Mr Shah, I cannot recommend him and the team at MPH enough. I have wanted this surgery for years but incredibly nervous following bad experiences with healthcare in the past. Due to this I did endless research into hospitals, surgeons, techniques etc. Prior to meeting Mr Shah I had several consultations elsewhere at highly rated hospitals with well recognised surgeons in the cosmetic surgery industry none of which filled me with as much confidence as Mr Shah. One thing I really want to point out is the lack of reviews on Mr Shah and his work really doesn’t do this doctor justice, which is a real shame! Booking my video consultation and later face to face consultation two weeks prior to surgery was effortless, informative and efficient - I was able to schedule a surgery date that suited around my work commitments. I knew after my initial discussion with Mr Shah I had made the right choice and he would be the person to make my dreams come true the safest possible way. Mr Shah is very professional and a perfectionist, he made me feel at ease and explained everything well. I was never pressured into any decisions, I found this very different to other places I had visited which was off putting straight away. These are big decisions and not something to be made whilst feeling under pressure from a rep trying to sell a quick boob job whilst lacking compassion.
On the day of the surgery I was understandably nervous, when I got to the hospital a lovely nurse introduced himself and took me through to my private room. Where two other nurses were very attentive and discussed my procedure, I had a final measure up with Mr Shah and met the Anaesthetist. The anaesthesia was the part I was most worried about following past experiences. Mr Abdou (Samy) the Anaesthetist was simply amazing. I explained my concerns and he comforted me explaining how my anxiety was normal because it’s not something I do everyday but for him it was a walk in the park he does this daily. This was really simple but so effective. I walked to theatre with the assistant / nurse, who along with Mr Abdou quickly put me to sleep in what felt like seconds I didn’t have time to worry or panic, I was calm and relaxed - under these circumstances this is not like me. This is most of what I remember but I remember vividly just how calm and safe I felt and for that I was so grateful.
The surgery went well, I was cared for afterwards by two ward nurses who were compassionate and professional. I knew I was still in the safest hands. My follow up appointments with nurse Carla have been fantastic, she too is very caring and understanding.
Now I have seen my results, Mr Shah has done an incredible job and when I say made my dreams come true he really has. He has changed my life, I never thought I would feel confident to be without a bra again following weight fluctuations and children. I am so pleased with the results and can look in the mirror without the feeling of embarrassment and upset. This hasn’t just improved my physical appearance but mentally too I feel incredible. I genuinely can’t ever recall a time I was happy with my body or even in any clothes that looked nice with overly large / heavy breasts that quite often caused muscular back pain. For the first time in my life I can look at myself in a mirror and feel happy. I do have plans for further surgery, I hope this too will be achievable with Mr Shah and his amazing team.
Thank you so much to everyone who has helped in my journey, I will forever be grateful to you all.
