He was an absolute gentleman. He saw me numerous times after surgery. He always asked how was my pain ,or if I was uncomfortable. As I said to him at my 6weeks review. You've changed my life!!. I can only thank him and the staff for a pain free operation and no brushing.

Very good service. Operation was quick and simple. Only slight recommendation would be to be able to see the X-rays afterwards so I fully understand what has been done

I underwent a shoulder arthroscopic rotator cuff repair procedure carried out by Mr Istvan Mersich on the 1st March 2019 and I would like to say it has been a complete success. I cannot thank him enough as prior to the treatment I was unable to raise my arm above my head due to severe pain.

I was very well informed before my operation what exactly was involved, and was kept advised throughout. Mr Mersich visited me each day to see how I was. I was treated with courtesy and respect and shown great care from him. I found the whole experience very reassuring and I could not have wished for better treatment. Thank you so much. What my family and I would like to add is that Mr Mersich is an absolute legend, he has transformed my mum's mobility and given her a new lease of life. Within days of her operation, we could visibly see the pain had diminished from her face and it was wonderful to see her smile again. We couldn’t have wished for anything more, and we cannot speak any higher of Mr Mersichs genuine and sincere care which he has shown. Many, many thanks.

I would like to thank Mr Mersich and all the staff who were party to my short stay at the Park hospital. As a NHS patient I was treated with brilliant care whist undergoing the replacement of half my left knee. The care I received was excellent, while in hospital and the aftercare physiotherapy, and latterly for the appointments too check how sucessfully my new knee is working. Thanks again to Mr Mersich and his staff for everything.
