I had to chase Mr. Ballaro for weeks to try and get the results and the answers to my visit, even though I clearly explained that I had an extreme urgency in getting the results.

Thanks for your review, and apologies for not sending you the results, I normally like to give them personally at a second appointment unless specifically arranged, they are all checked. Please contact me directly through the privatepractice email if you still havent recieved them.

HoLEP procedure for BPH. Mr Ballaro explained the solution to my condition clearly and inspired confidence as he has clearly done this procedure many times and had do doubts as to its efficacy. He was also responsive to some further pre-op queries post-consultation. That he followed up both post-op and on the following day was most reassuring and confidence-inspiring. I'm guessing he has the procedure down to a T as recovery was extremely quick. The post-op catheter was removed early next morning and almost immediately I began to pass urine easily: a tremendous relief and 100% improvement on my pre-op condition. I could not have wished for anything more and felt in very safe hands.

Mr Andrew Ballaro has been excellent from my initial consultation to my review appointment. He has a kind friendly mannner and is willing to spend time discussing the options with you as well as any concerns you may have. Mr Ballero went through the procedure step by step ensuring that I understood what was going to happen. Mr Ballero was very reassuring which made me feel more relaxed before the procedure. He spoke to me and my wife prior to and after surgery and on the day of my discharge.
