All round excellent experience. No dramas from the totally professional team.
Excellent consultant. From the first appointment he was professional, kind, and very understanding. The operation was successful and the follow-up care has been great. I felt very well looked after throughout and would highly recommend him.
Planning. I was told to be at the hospital at 06:00h. The Operation was at 12:45h.
Thank you, Mr Joshi, for your kindness and reassurance during our initial consultation and on the day of the colonoscopy. Everything was explained clearly and you put me at ease.

You are very welcome and thank you for trusting me to take care of you.
Visit was a great experience. Had a private room. Admission Nurses were extremely friendly and helpful, always checking in ajd asking if I needed anything. The Endoscopy Team were also amazing, asking if I was okay, if I had any questions and were very comforting throughout the procedure. Dr Joshi was very informative, guiding me through the whole procedure and providing comfort where needed.
Excellent colleague and surgeon
