I was very anxious about my sinus surgery, I was anticipating a tough and painful recovery as this would be the most complex sinus surgery I would have to date. Mr Bhalla, is not only a fantastic surgeon but has a very calm demeanour and puts you at ease instantly. The surgery recovery was no where near as painful and lengthy as I anticipated. I barely required pain killers and I felt the best I have in years only a few days post surgery. I can’t thank mr balla enough for his professionalism and talent. I can’t thank finally smell, taste and live pain free

Mr Bhalla was incredibly patient, thorough, and kind in his approach and explanations during my consultation. We looked at primary issues with my nose and created realistic next steps. All of this was explained incredibly clearly. I felt incredibly at ease and well informed.

I could hug Mr Bhalla - I feel like a different person after sinus surgery! The procedure and the pros and cons were explained well and all questions answered fully and without haste. I felt no ill effects whatsoever on the day of surgery or afterwards.

Disappointing new and follow up appts. Both were very brief and seemed rushed. Mr Bhalla seemed reluctant to answer my questions fully.
