It was 11 out of 10, Mr Gooding is master of his profession
Review from previous operation to make sure everything is at it should be, this was followed up with an X-ray which was then discharged
Mr Gooding was an absolute gentleman. On my first visit I was held up in traffic and late for my appointment and Mr Gooding waited for me to arrive. He has a very calming manner and explained everything . On the visit today I had an injection which unfortunately made me feel dizzy for a few minutes and he was so good at dealing with this . Mr Gooding was recommended to me and I can see why . I would definitely recommend him myself .
Throughout my time at the Park with Ben it has been fantastic. No complaints. The team have been amazing.
Ben was thorough snd professional throughout my whole process. He arranged my surgery super quick, carried out my surgery taking into account it was my 1st surgery and my anxieties. Would recommend this consultant 100%.
I visited Mr Gooding on two occasions and I found his diagnosis of my condition and his recommendation clear and logical.
Mr Gooding is very professional, clear in his explanations and reassuring. I always felt confident that I was in good hands. This was the second operation Mr Gooding has performed on me and I would not hesitate to recommend him. Thankyou.
