I was delighted with the treatment provided by Dr. Faddy Kamel. It has been life transforming for me. I had suffered for nearly 2 years from persistent -and often heavy bleeding - from haemorrhoids. Dr Kamel investigated the situation and performed banding which has had a successful outcome.

I’d like to express my gratitude to Dr Kamel for the care and professionalism he showed throughout my treatment. He was consistently professional, caring and attentive, and I always felt that I was in very good hands. He is an excellent listener and took the time to understand my concerns fully, explaining things clearly and paying great attention to detail. His friendly and reassuring manner also made what could have been a stressful experience much easier for me. I truly can’t express enough how grateful I am for the care and support he provided throughout my treatment. Dr Kamel is an excellent doctor, and I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of his expertise and compassionate care.
