I met Mr Jayanthi after seeing various Consultants and straight away he filled me with confidence. Explaining what was causing my symptoms. He carried out an Endoscopy where others had failed. I felt relaxed being wheeled down to Theatre and the operation and recovery went smoothly.

Such a friendly, compassionate consultant, he listened intently during the consultation and gave open and honest advise. He was concerned about some answers I gave and asked that I take part in a sleep study before I would be put forward for surgery, the outcome of this was severe sleep apnoea. Not only did he advise the best surgery for me but also made sure I was safe during sleep. I cannot recommend this consultant high enough, and I have recommended him amongst my friend and family. Mr Jayanthi has helped me achieve a new chapter, I have been given the chance of a reset and I will take this with both hands and I will always be thankful to him.
