Reviews
Dr John Griffiths for the excellent care and support he provided. He was extremely informative, kind and reassuring throughout, taking the time to explain everything clearly and answer my questions. His calm and compassionate manner made me feel comfortable and confident in his care. I really appreciated his professionalism and kindness and would highly recommend him.
Was an inpatient for liver resection having first having been assessed for fitness for surgery
He made me feel comfortable to the point that I forgot I was having an operation and throughly explained what the procedure that he was carrying out. I found Dr John extremely professional and considerate and can not thank him enough with his team. 5 star service
Dr John Griffiths is perfect in his role as anaesthetist, putting the patient at ease and inspiring confidence. He was brilliant in following up after the operation.
A huge thank you to Dr Griffiths - he kept me informed by text message during my husband’s recent surgery, which was very much appreciated as it is always a worrying time.
I saw Dr Griffiths for a pre-op appointment and very much appreciated his calm & reassuring manner with answering any questions
The doctor was excellent in all aspects of the procedure and took the trouble to explain all to me. He also followed up my appointment later by calling me at home. I have a medical problem which restricts my neck movement and makes swallowing tubes during intubation difficult for me and in the past this has been done with me awake prior to an operation. He wanted to speak to the consultant who recently carried out this procedure on me for any tip so he could pass it on to his colleague who would be doing my operation
