I had a very positive experience being under the care of Mr Balega. He was very swift in getting the treatment I needed and personally made contact with my Husband following surgery to reassure him my procedure had gone as planned and that I was doing well which was greatly appreciated. Not only the knowledge, experience and expertise in his field he seemed to genuinely care all the way through and stayed in touch when results came in following the procedure, putting himself on our shoes on what would be important to him by way of treatment if he or his family members were in our position which makes you feel really cared about. That really means a lot when you are worrying. I really appreciate the personal care given and communication with me and my Husband and would strongly recommend anyone in my position to request to see Mr Balega.

I can’t recommend Mr Balega enough. He undertook complex surgery and was kind, professional and understanding from the very first meeting. I am making a very good recovery. I completely trusted him with my life and still do. I wanted the very best surgeon to operate on me and Mr Balega was recommended as “one of the best in the country” I can absolutely vouch that this is correct.

I was diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer in 2022. Mr Balega was outstanding throughout my treatment and my recovery. Although I was not aware at the time , this was just a part of my journey. Mr Balega has monitored my health regularly since and this has enabled me to regain both my physical and mental health. My visit today was another informative and supportive meeting . I am incredibly grateful.
