It was a follow up consultation with Miss Darrien. Miss Darrien was very good & answered any questions I had, and put my mind at ease.
Miss Darrien did a double hernia on me. She explained everything to me beforehand. Very professional and friendly. Operation went perfectly. Highly recommended.
I am extremely satisfied with the whole experience. I was seen promptly and the procedure was carried out successfully. I have made a full recovery and am very pleased. Thank you
The whole experience was brilliant. Can't praise her high enough. She explained everything to us clearly. The staff at the hospital were great. She was great, thank you.
I can not speak any higher of Miss Darrien. She has been absolutely amazing. I had previously had surgery that had caused issues which she had to repair before even starting the surgery i was there for. She checked in and communicated everything with me at all times.
Seamless from start to Finnish, i was very anxious about my surgery but Dr Darrien and her team helped put me at ease.
