My follow-up appointment with Mr Manoj Kumar, who performed my gallbladder removal, was an excellent experience. He is a highly professional and approachable consultant who clearly takes great pride in his work. From the moment I arrived, he was friendly and reassuring, putting me completely at ease while discussing my recovery. His manner and expertise inspire real confidence, and I felt I was in very capable hands throughout my journey. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of his care.

I was referred to Mr Kumar for Surgery after having been diagnosed with Gallstones. He was extremely informative, sharing with me all my options and all the possible outcomes/complications for each option. He then sent me for an MRCP to help make sure he had a full diagnostic picture of my gallbladder to ensure that surgery was the best option as well as to make sure there were no other issues that could cause complications during surgery. I was given a surgery date 3 weeks following my initial appointment and I am now 4 weeks post op.

I instantly felt at ease and reassured on my first consultation with Mr Kumar. He listened closely to all that I told him and he clearly outlined the options available to me including not to go ahead with surgery if I felt the benefits were marginal. At no time was there any pressure or hard sell to proceed with treatment. A follow up letter was issued summarizing all that was discussed with potential risks for me to consider in my own time. On the day of the operation Mr Kumar kept me fully informed of the procedure and visited personally to advise of a delay in getting in to the theatre due to previous ops over running. I was discharged on the same day and suffered minimum post op discomfort. Should I require surgery in the future Mr Kumar will be my go to surgeon

I have been absolutely delighted with Mr Kumar's professionalism & care throughout the entire journey, from initial consultation, through the operation, to final consultation & pathology review. Mr Kumar explained fully what the procedure would or could involve beforehand, ensured he had an up to date MRI scan immediately before the operation, came to see me and reassure me before the operation and very soon after the operation too, was happy for me to stay overnight due to the effects of anaesthesia and saw me again before I left in the morning. I also saw him the week after the operation prior to having a drain removed and a month after the operation for final review & pathology review. I would like to sincerely thank Mr Kumar for his treatment & care, removing a gallbladder which has bothered me for most of my life, and making what could have been a worrying time into quite an enjoyable experience! Many thanks!!
