When I was told by my previous surgeon that there was no chance of removing my very awkward polyp internally, and that I need to lose 10 - 12 inches of colon along other important pats including my appendix, I asked for a referral to Dr Despott. That was the best decision I have made in my life. Just a few days after this I was very pleasantly surprised to receive a phone call from the man himself. He told me that having studied my notes he was willing to take my case on for internal microsurgery. He went out of his way to explain what was involved and the risks involved and the chances of success and failure. He answered all my questions very thoroughly making sure I understood what was involved. He was very professional but above that his caring attitude shone through. This caring attitude was reflected in every subsequent phone call and meeting including on the day of my operation when he ran through my procedure in detail. Then the operation...Dr Despott is a superhero in disguise! He worked tirelessly for more than 8 hours to detach and remove my polyp. I was sedated but could follow the whole procedure. It was a very difficult involved procedure but, despite the stress and the concentration required, Dr Despott remained calm and controlled the whole time - even managing to teach his colleagues what he was up to. His professional caring manner continued in the days and subsequent when he was checking on my condition. He explained to me that he "treats his patients as though they were members of his family". If you manage to be treated by Dr Despott then you can consider yourself very very fortunate.

The best doctor! Really helpful with explanations, goes extra mile and pleasant to work with

Dr Edward Despott is excellent, a highly skilled professional possessing a wealth of knowledge and without a doubt an eminent consultant in his field. Great communication skills and a very personable man, polite, respectful, and most of all diligent in his work. After careful consideration, I choose Dr Despott’s services to help clarify my ongoing condition of 30 years. I am very pleased to say I made the right choice. A sincere thank you

Dr Despott is highly skilled and very caring. He is very patient and explains all aspects of the procedure in understandable detail. I am very grateful to have been his patient and would, without question, recommend him if asked.

Dr Despott is extremely professional, knowledgeable, caring, kind and explicit.

I am full of praise for Dr Despott. From my initial consultation, through to the procedures he carried out, his knowledge, skills and experience were outstanding. Not only that, but his "bedside manner" was very reassuring. He gave generously of his time, listening to and understanding my issues and concerns. He explained everything in easy to understand language whilst not being patronising. The actual procedures were pain free, with no discomfort at all. I would highly recommend Dr Despott.

Dr Despott was brilliant in carrying out the procedure . Inspired confidence and was very caring . Always available for queries before and after the procedure . Approachable and kind.

With a wealth of knowledge, Dr Despott was still able to clearly explain what they were looking for with my test and how it would be treated if anything was found. He was very reassuring and gave a holistic view of any potential issues and the medical + non-medical (eg. lifestyle) methods to address them.

Very nice and professional, explained me everything about the procedure (perfect italian speaker as well), and made me feel very confortable and safe. Very recommended.

Very good doctor
