He was friendly on time and explained everything very well.
It was a telephone call confirming good results of my recent CT scan,
I saw the consultant following a series of tests. He was extremely helpful and answered all my questions, I feel more confident now about my upcoming operation, Thank you,
I have every confidence in Mr Spiteri. Very professional, obviously very competent and with a friendly approachable manner.
Very satisfied with whole process from initial consultation through to surgery.
Dr Spiteri was fantastic, he took care to explain everything very clearly, whilst going into more detail as and when I had questions (I'm autistic and can ask a few questions if I want to understand detail). He explained the issue I was suffering, why it caused pain int he way it did, and then then presented me with the options available to me, whilst recommending the approach that he felt was most appropriate for me, which was a corrective operation. I chose the operation, and on the day of operation was more than happy to put complete faith in him to do a good job, which he clearly did as just one week later I am making an excellent recovery and in far less pain than I had been for weeks prior to the operation. My thanks go out to him and his colleagues for being so professional, caring and skillful at their craft.
