This was a follow up to a very successful hernia operation carried out by Mr Alan James. The whole process was excellent
During the first few minutes of my meeting with Mr James he put me at my ease and I felt completely confident that he could successfully repair my 2 hernia’s. I would confidently recommend his service to others in my situation.
Professional and friendly doctor. The surgery went very well with no complications and a very speedy recovery.
I recently had my umbilical hernia repaired by Mr James, and the entire experience was excellent. My recovery was smooth and I am very pleased with the results. Mr James was both professional and friendly throughout, and I felt well cared for at every stage. A truely five-star experience- Thank you!
My hospital visit was a positive experience. But take a warm dressing gown as I was cold waiting to go to theatre. All of the staff were friendly, kind and helpful.
Mr James saw me on time, gave a clear explanation of the procedure which had taken place, including photos (before & after). He was able to reassure me that everything was on track.
The care couldn’t have been better and I would definitely return to Spire Gatwick Park.
Good explanation of the procedure I had and observations made during the procedure.
Dr James has been fantastic throughout. He was open, discursive and informative during the initial consultation, the pre-op and followup consultation. He was friendly, open and happy to discuss any concerns and provided answers to all my questions.
From the start to finish went extremely smoothly. Very happy with recovery and results. Thank you Mr James
