Explanation

After a lifetime of difficulties with my periods I saw Mr Vakharia on a recommendation from another lady who has the same condition as me. It was great decision- he is kind, knowledgeable and generally brilliant. He listened carefully to everything I said, took my concerns seriously, explained all the options and proposed a treatment plan. When it came to having surgery he made sure I was comfortable with what to expect and reassured me that there would be somebody on hand at London Gynaecology at all times for any issues I may have afterwards - which there was. When I had unexpected problems during the Christmas holidays he got back to me within the hour and saw me as quickly as possible. I am very happy indeed to have found him and grateful for the excellent care.

The experience having my maternity care and delivery of my son with Mr Vakharia was truly amazing. On the day itself we felt truly cared for and supported. The c section was calm and everything went exactly to plan. I recovered really quickly - it was truly a fantastic experience. We couldn’t be happier. I felt supported, informed at all times and Mr Vakharia went above and beyond to clarify all our questions and guide us in our decision making. Couldn’t recommend highly enough!

I have performed many joint procedures with Mr Vakharia for surgical treatment of grade 4 endometriosis and laparoscopic myomectomy procedures. He is a very skilled and meticulous surgeon with great attention to detail. His patients often comment on his excellent bedside manners, thorough assessment and life-changingly brilliant suurgical outcomes. He is easily one of the best surgeons I have worked with.
