Explanation

Being very anxious about my upcoming surgery, Mr Kumar immediately put me at ease - not just his calming manner, but his knowledge and expertise in explaining the surgery, which satisfied my curious mind too! He promised he’d escalate my medical case for urgent attention and my expectations were exceeded with quick confirmation of a surgery date. Surgery was successful and recovery has went well. My post-surgery follow up was equally informative and reassuring. I feel very well looked after by Mr Kumar.
