I think the least I can say is that I was treated very professionally and very kindly by Doctor David Monk and the nurses during my treatment at Cleveland Clinic. Thank you so much for everything
David Monk was very professional, explained about the procedure which I am about to have.
Mr Monk was very friendly, efficient, and reassuring.
Explained the procedure, took on board my concerns and made me feel relaxed and in safe hands
Very professional and pleasant surgeon. Had a very good outcome from my surgery.
My first consultation with David Monk was nothing short of transformative. He explained my gallbladder issues with clarity, listened when I told him about my liver problem, and immediately ordered an MRI which the NHS never even considered. His manner was approachable and confident, and the efficiency was astonishing. I received my summary notes the very same day and he pencilled in a tentative surgery date within two weeks of that first meeting. This kind of proactive, patient‑first medicine is rare to find. David Monk exemplifies excellence. He combines deep medical knowledge with humanity, speed, and foresight, setting a gold standard for care.
First class ! Good explanation , not hurried , excellent manner
Humble, skilled and kind. A great colleague.
