I would not hesitate at all to recommend Mr Amer as a highly skilled and excellent Consultant Surgeon. Such a wonderful Doctor who really took the time to listen to me and then explain things using terminology which I could understand alongside the medical terms, he took such great care of me before, during and after my surgery for which I will always be truly grateful and thankful to be pain free and able to live my life to the full again. If I had to choose one word to describe Mr Amer it would be ‘Awesome’
