Mr Keith Chapple interacts with patients in a professional, reassuring, and clear manner, ensuring they feel at ease. He provides expert explanations, and patients report swift resolution of pain and excellent recovery after hernia repair. Haemorrhoidectomy patients experience less post-operative pain than anticipated, and his meticulous investigation identifies serious, unrelated medical conditions before planned surgery. Mr Chapple is highly recommended for expertise in general surgery covering hernia repair, colonoscopy, and the treatment of haemorrhoids.

Operation and recovery went well, the anesthetist was also very helful in explaining the choice of procedures. Dr Chapple also referred me to a heart specialist prior to my hernia operation which led to essential heart surgery which otherwise may not have been detected.
