Mr Macdonald fully understood my needs and required outcome. He was polite, respectful and answered all my questions. I felt comfortable with him and hoping that once fully healed I get the result I hoped for.

From the very first time I met Mr Christopher Macdonald, I knew he was the right person for my surgery. He took the time to really listen to what I wanted, explained everything so clearly and was incredibly informative throughout the whole process. Chris is extremely professional, but at the same time so warm, friendly and approachable. He made me feel completely at ease from the very beginning, which gave me so much confidence and reassurance. He even went out of his way to fit me into his incredibly busy schedule so that I could have my surgery at a time that suited me, and I’m so grateful that he did. I honestly can’t put into words how much this surgery has changed my life. I am absolutely over the moon with my results and couldn’t be happier. I have so much confidence now, and I feel like a completely different person in the best possible way. I genuinely can’t stop recommending Chris to everyone! I feel incredibly lucky to have had him as my surgeon and will always be so grateful for everything he has done for me. Thank you so much, Chris, for changing my life and for being so amazing throughout my whole journey.
