Mr. Parbhoo was recommended to me after searching for a private surgeon after being on the NHS waiting list for around 9 years. Mr.Parbhoo works both NHS and has private patients, so if you are lucky enough to have him under the NHS, just know you have the very best. I had double jaw surgery and nasal septoplasty carried out by Mr.Parbhoo last year. I personally feel that he went over and above for me, covid meant my surgery was cancelled multiple times but Mr.Parbhoo kept me informed at all steps. Due to not having the surgery, I also pushed my wedding back. I am so glad I did because I am so so happy with my bite that Mr.Parbhoo has corrected. He was so informative from my first appointments, to the day of surgery, coming to see me in the evening to check on me and all follow up care has been outstanding. This is a 100% honest post, Mr.Parbhoo gave me the confidence to smile on my wedding day, he fixed a painful bite and I had my whole trust in him. If there is someone reading this who is debating going to Mr.Parbhoo for surgery, then let me tell you that his work is phenomenal, I healed really quickly and Mr.Parbhoo’s relationship with his patients gives trust and confidence in him. I cannot thank you enough for your continued care for me. With thanks, Stacey L
Dear Stacey, thank you so much for your kind words. You have been a wonderful patient to treat and I am delighted with your outcome. I am so glad your wedding went smoothly and I wish you a long and very happy marriage.

The treatment I received was absolutely excellent. I was treated with care and respect at all times. The execution of the procedure was incredibly skilful and I experienced no pain following the procedure at all and it completely solved the problem I presented with.

Mr Parbhoo is an excellent Max fax surgeon and an amazing person. It’s very rare to have a surgeon so skilful and yet so humble .He’s one of the surgeons who is trusted with any simple or complex Max fax issue by all his colleagues and patients. Truly an asset to all the hospitals he works for and a very well respected colleague.
