I was pleased with the care I received from Mr Agrawal. Everything was explained clearly and I felt well looked after throughout. The hernia repair went smoothly and I’m happy with the outcome.
Mr Sanjay Agrawal was happy to discuss the procedure and answer any questions I might have. He was very open and easy to talk to.
I HAD AN OPERATION TO REPAIR A HERNIA IN MY ABDOMEN . I WAS OPERATED ON MY MR AGRAWAL AT SPIRE HEALTHCARE IN BRENTWOOD , ESSEX , AT THE HARTSWOOD HOSPITAL . THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE WAS RELAXED AND PROFESSIONAL . I WAS DISCHARGED THE SAME DAY , AND HAVE EXPERIENCED NO ILL EFFECTS . IN FACT , I HAVE NOT EVEN NEEDED TO TAKE A PAIN-KILLER DURING THE BRIEF RECOVERY PERIOD .
I was diagnosed with 4 hernias! Dr Agrawal explained the procedures very clearly, laid out the side effects and made no attempt to push me into having surgery. Nearly 5 weeks after the operation during which all hernias were successfully repaired I am very pleased with the outcome.
I had a hernia operation two and a half years ago with another surgeon, which was not successful as the hernia returned. After seeing mr agrawal and having a scan he agreed to operate this time it seems successful and I am very pleased with the outcome.
Dr Agrawal was recommended to me and I have to say he made the whole experience for start to finish extremely user friendly. He was extremely thorough and reassuring throughout the whole process. I have friends who require similar surgery and would have no hesitation recommending Dr Agrawal.
I booked in to see Dr Agrawal after my GP failed to refer me to the hospital to assess my hernia for surgery. After waiting 6 weeks for the NHS to contact me I decided to go private. It was the best decision I've made, quick and easy booking at Spire Healthcare. Had my first appointment with Dr Agrawal he confirmed it was a hernia and needing repairing. Happy with his assessment booked the follow up tests and appointment and happy with all the service booked the surgery. The team from Dr Agrawal to the clinical team all amazing. It's been 6 weeks since surgery and recovering well. Dr Agrawal is my go to consultant in the future if I need to return for future health needs. Thanks again what a professional RM
Very professional. Clearly explained what the procedure was going to involve and then completed it with the utmost care.
Mr Agrawal was very informative from the first consultation, up until the surgery and follow up appointment. I was always aware of what was happening and what risks were involved and he answered any questions I had with clarity.
I saw doctor Agrawal for help with Gallstones, I was very anxious knowing I would need surgery but doctor Agrawal was friendly and honest about the procedure. The day of my surgery doctor Agrawal was warm and friendly, keeping my nerves under control. Once out of surgery he came to check on me before being discharged. After 4 weeks Post Op I went for my final appointment, and the surgery was a success with my incisions healing well. Dr Agrawal was again friendly and informative with all my post op questions.
Exceptional surgeon and great colleague.
