Explanation

I can’t emphasise how much of a wonderful experience I have had with Mr Bhalla. The level of care and attention he shows is incredible; despite being a very anxious patient at the beginning, Mr Bhalla made me feel relaxed and confident and I was truly cared for throughout the whole process. His expertise is evident and I’m over the moon with my results (1 year post-op) - I couldn’t have imagined a better outcome. I did a lot of research prior to making any decisions and I’m so happy I went with my gut and chose Mr Bhalla - I had minimal bruising (almost none), almost no pain (no pain relief used at any point) and a very smooth recovery. The most positive part of the experience has been the mental aspect - I expected a lot more of an emotional rollercoaster post-op but have found it surprisingly easy

My experience with Dr Bhalla has been amazing from start to finish. He's incredibly patient, explains everything thoroughly and kind and compassionate. Having been apprehensive about my nasal and sinus operation he and the team took incredible care of me and my recover has been so much easier than I expected. No swelling ot bruising and very limited pain which he advised would be the case but I didn't believe it! I cannot recommend him highly enough.
