I was referred to Mr Jaafari for a persistent UTI. He identified a benign enlarged prostate and arranged for various scans and procedures to check for other possible causes of infection. This included a cystoscopy which he carried out himself and was painless and very efficiently done. He decided the prostate was the cause of the continual infections and carried out green light laser surgery without any significant post operative discomfort or any of the other possible complications. Three months later I am free of infection. Thank you very much.

Very personable, professional and an excellent communicator. Mr Al Jaafari is clearly an expert in his field. He described by proposed green light laser treatment fully, ahead of time and involved me in that conversation. The procedure went as he had advised and the results were excellent.
