Mr Mark Davies is consistently professional, friendly, caring, and reassuring. He clearly explains all medical procedures, helping patients feel calm and confident. Patients receive detailed information about operations, including hernia repair and bowel surgery, covering expectations and recovery. Many patients also commend Mr Davies for successful hernia, inguinal hernia, and colonoscopy outcomes.
Had hernia surgery, from consultation Mark was very professional and made it clear what was to be expected pre and post operation. The way the wound has been stitched together is also excellent as he has minimised the visual impact of what was quite a large incision.
Mark was excellent throughout and has made a big difference in helping my recovery. Thanks Mark
I have had a hernia op with Mr Mark Davies and I'm very happy with the whole process so far. The pre op assessment was positive and reassuring. The operation went well with the booking in, anaesthesia checks and post op all very positive. At the post op check I reported that I have had a good recovery with expected pain being well managed and movement coming back to normal 4 weeks after.
Very professional. Takes plenty of time to listen and carefully explains options. I was very impressed by his gentle but thorough manner. I felt very reassured after my visit.
Mr Mark Davies was very thorough in his investigations, explained the whole process and risks well and his consultancy made me feel at ease during the whole process. I would highly recommend using HMT Sancta Maria and in particular Mr Mark Davies given the level of care i received.
The consultation with Mr Davies provided me with a clear understanding of my medical problem and the course of action necessary to resolve the matter. Throughout this time Mr Davies was courteous and put me at ease as to the procedure involved to repair the bilateral hernia's. I am particularly grateful, that two weeks before my repair, on finding that I had two hernia's instead of one, Mr Davies consented to carry out the bilateral procedure on the original date of 23rd April 2026. This was an enormous relief not just for me but for my family.
Mr Davies was welcoming, professional and treated me like a person rather than a number. He listened to me, reviewed my medical files and needs, and provided his own opinion and advice, which made perfect sense. He explained all aspects of my surgery and post op needs to me and my other half. The operation went well, and I've had a good recovery. Very happy with the result, and very glad Mr Davies was my Consultant and Surgeon.
Thank you Mr Davies, for explaining everything to me in a kind informal way so I could fully understand. Since having the procedure I feel so much better and sing your praises to everyone. You will always have a five star recommendation from.me.
Discussed the procedure and ongoing recovery. All questions were answered thoughtfully and professionally.
Mr Davies was very professional he explained the operation to me in detail and put my mind at ease
I worked with Mark whilst a trainee surgeon in Morriston and Singleton hospitals in Swansea. He was a brilliant trainer and excellent surgeon. He has a good bedside manner and is a skilled technician. I would recommend his opinion to patients seeking general and colorectal surgical opinion.
