Mr Varghese was totally amazing my quality of life is so much better. His guidance, support and professionalism was second to none.
What a fantastic surgeon Mr Varghese is very approachable and makes you feel at ease top surgeon
Mr Varghese is an amazing doctor. I was advised what would happen during operation and had numerous follow ups. He also recognised that the pain I had after surgery was too extreme so did an urgent MRI to understand why I had so much pain. It showed cervical radiculopothy which now means my NHS doctor can treat me when previously they had put the pain down to the tendon issue I had the operation for. Thank you Mr Varghese for resolving my tendon issue, your empathy, support and for getting me a correct diagnosis. Couldn't have asked for a better doctor.
Best service I have ever had service and information provided second to none , very helpful honest and kind
10/10 Amazing Mr Varghese is incredible. I felt reassured, cared for and in safe hands during the whole process. He is incredibly personable and his bedside manner is second to no other. He truly healed me and I cannot say thank you enough for taking my horrific pain away. My recovery has been textbook. I highly recommend Mr Varghese and Methley park Spire also. Thank you to all who have looked after me so well. Mr Varghese you are truly amazing! Thank you
Mr. Varghese is an excellent surgeon from the very first meeting, I have had surgery on both shoulders, to my last appointment he has been superb. Never once have I felt nervous about my operations his care and professionalism have been outstanding. I would recommend him without question.
Mr Varghese is very professional and communicates in a way that as a lay person I was put at ease and felt comfortable in asking questions. I would recommend him to anyone with any of the symptoms I had. The consultation was not rushed and ended with him asking if there was anything else he could help with. I felt very valued as a patient
From my initial consultation ,operation and aftercare Mr Varghese has been first class I am truly grateful for the exceptional care that he provided .
