Mr Bhalla was actually early to see us. His calmness has really helped us through our son’s surgery and all appointments. He is always very honest but explains everything superbly. We always feel we are in such safe hands. He is the ultimate professional and takes such care about everything and everyone he is working with.

Really good experience with Raj. Very knowledgeable, easy to talk to and explained everything in a way that just made sense. He gave me all the information I needed, answered every question didn’t make me feel rushed or like he had somewhere else to be. You can tell he genuinely cares and knows his stuff.

Mr Raj Bhalla was professional , patient and reassuring throughout. He took the time to help me fully understand the changes in my nose and explained everything clearly. His guidance was cautious but realistic, with a straightforward plan for monitoring and managing things going forward. Excellent care from start to finish.

I’m a week post-op and have just had my cast removed after a septorhinoplasty. I AM OVER THE MOON!! Raj has been exceptional from start to finish! From the beginning my gut feeling was that this was the man for the job. Professionally, he puts confidence in you with presenting information and facts. Personally, he is warm and kind and fills you with every reason to trust him. At no point did I have any doubts. I wanted a natural nose that still felt like me and boy, has he delivered!

A follow up appointment which was extremely helpful and informative - we walked through my questions carefully and clearly. Additional view of photography re other operations before and after really helped me as well a much better understanding on my part about grafts. Hugely reassuring and very professional.

Your trust is our top concern, so providers can't pay to alter or remove reviews.
