He is thorough, explaining procedures such as sigmoidoscopy, colonoscopy, and open hernia surgery, alongside aftercare and recovery.

Was admitted to Shirley Oaks through the NHS for a surgical procedure, was very quickly assessed and booked in for the op. Dr. Faddy Kamel was incredible. Was clear and honest about the procedure itself and the recovery times. Very easy to talk to and discuss any questions or issues I had. He made the whole situation a lot less stressful and daunting. I’d like to thank Dr. Faddy Kamel and all the staff at Shirley Oaks Hospital for their time and efforts to getting me back on the mend. Not a bad word to say. All the best to you all, James R.
