Mr Taylor’s open , friendly and direct manner made his procedure explanation easy to understand. My hernia operation was performed expediently, with an uncomplicated recovery indicating a most successful operation and outcome .
I'm very happy for the help I had through my surgery. Soo thank you Mr Gregory for your support and professionalism you shown.
Even at the initial consult and advice on preparation in the months before the surgery, Mr Taylor was clear on what I needed to do and that the success of the operation was partly dependent upon my own preparation for it - my weight had to be down to a certain level, and that was pretty much achieved, with Mr Taylors guidance. The operation itself was in Singleton Hospital and the team there were brilliant in all areas, I very much enjoyed the experience where It could have been pretty daunting. Before the Op Mr Taylor took all my wishes into account, and the operation site, wound closing and the result on leaving hospital exactly as planned was better than I could have imagined for what is a relatively major operation. Post operation recovery was straightforward at home, and on our closing consultation after two months post op, the op site has recovered brilliantly, and the success for the tricky abdominal incisional hernia repair done by Mr Taylor has been at the highest level.
