Fantastic, a really good length of time consultation with plenty of time to ask questions. Mr Ravindran explained everything really clearly without medical jargon and went through the risks. I feel as though after months of backwards and forwards and delays in the NHS that I am now being taken care of properly and I will be proceeding with my surgery with Mr Ravindran
Very well explained, left in no doubt of best way forward!!
My experience with Mr Ravindran has been amazing. I had Gallbladder removal surgery and my life has changed for the better. I have recovered really quickly with the help and guidance of Mr Ravindran. From my first consultation appointment to my post op appointment he has explained everything in detail and I want to express my thanks. Thank you again for everything.
Good clear explanation of what plan of action to take and follow
Thank you for your review. I am happy that you found the consultation helpful and clear to understand the situation. Best wishes
I felt very comfortable and at ease with Dr Ravindran. He answered all my questions and left me feeling very confident with the next step. He is going to do his very best to accommodate the dates I have available and that means alot as I have a family. I don't feel so nervous to see him at my next appointment.
Thank you very much for taking time to give me a feedback. I am glad that I was able to address all your concerns. Will see you during your next visit. Best wishes
