Underwent a minor medical surgery. Everything was fast, clear, comfortable. My medical issue has been resolved effectively.
I had an excllent care experience with Dr Ivanov. He was very clear with what to expect ahead of the procedure and, following successful surgery and healing, he followed up with guidance to prevent reoccurrence of the injury. I'd like to thank Dr Ivanov and all of the staff at Rivers for the quality of care I received throughout.

I was booked with Mr Ivanov for a cholecystectomy (gallbladder) removal. Mr Ivanov explained the procedure and the risks and was very reassuring throughout the process. The surgery went well and I made an excellent recovery.
Great Dr, the whole process flawless , fast recovery,I could not ask more from a doctor!

Had a great experience with Mr Ivanov, felt well looked after from start to finish
Mr Ivanov was happy to answer any questions about my procedure , offering advice with regards to the do’s & don’ts for the best recovery results. He also outlined to me how my operation went, and explained what caused my gallbladder to become inflamed. Thank you for a very happy experience, not only from mr Ivanov, but all the medical staff at ‘The Rivers Hospital’
