Everything was great. He’s professional, calm, and explained well so that it is easy to understand the procedure, etc.
Mr Butler was fantastic. He clearly explained his recommendations and talked us through the procedure for our son and what this would entail. On the day of my son's operation, Mr Butler and his team really put my son at ease and were incredibly caring, bringing him toys and helping us to prepare for the procedure. The whole process was made easier for us too as we knew our son was in good hands with Mr Butler and his team 😊
Excellent communicator, professional, reassuring all our concerns.
I have had the privilege of working alongside Mr Butler, initially when he was a fellow and I was a registrar under his supervision. His depth of knowledge, excellent surgical skills, and supportive teaching style made a lasting impression on my own training. As a consultant colleague, I continue to be impressed by his clinical acumen, professionalism, and patient-centred approach. I would recommend him without reservation.
