Mr Khoo is a very professional and caring surgeon. My procedure was explained fully and no pressure was given to go ahead until I was happy On day of surgery Mr Khoo visited me before and after my operation until I was discharged. His bedside manner was exceptional. I had regular 3 month reviews face to face which was reassuring I would absolutely recommend Mr Khoo. He has given me my life back after bariatric surgery.

Very nice doctor who explained procedure thoroughly. After surgery visit reassuring. Whole experience of having the umbilical hernia repair very quick and professional.

Mr Khoo listened to the painful (and slightly embarrassing) symptoms of the Anal Fissure and clearly explained the treatment options and their pros and cons. This was both reassuring and gave me a clear "action plan" for treatment over the 6m treatment period. I was also able to easily contact him by email with questions and progress updates in-between the consultations.

I have given a top rating for Mr Khoo. I felt very confident that Mr Khoo would carry out the two procedures I had with great care. Mr Khoo was very patient explaining the procedures before hand and his after care was exemplary.

From my initial consultation with David through to post surgery, I received excellent care . My recovery from keyhole surgery was extremely comfortable with minimal pain or bruising, a testament to his skill as a surgeon.

Mr Khoo has the most incredible surgical ability having carried out a hernia repair on me, I was able to do a little bit of mechanical work within in two days and only had to take a few paracetamol tablets to control a little discomfort. Although my stomach was a little swollen for a short period, I had absolutely no bruising at all and this can only be accredited to his precision and gentle touch.

Mr Khoo explained to me and my wife what exactly was involved in my operation and answered my questions regarding diet post op. As the operation took longer than usual due to my stomach lining being stuck to my chest, Mr Khoo discussed with my wife the reasons for the lengthy operation time. When I was back in my room at the hospital, Mr Khoo made frequent visits to ask how I was feeling and he was very supportive when I mentioned the pain I was experiencing. His bedside manner was excellent. When I was discharged I had follow up appointments with Mr Khoo at 1 and 3 months after the operation. He asked how I was feeling and again offered advice about what to eat and what not to. He invited me to get in touch should any problems develop in the future. Mr Khoo carried out my surgery for an inguinal hernia in 2019 and my hiatus hernia this year and I can't praise him enough for his skill and concern for his patient. If anyone is needing a hernia operation then I highly recommend Mr Khoo as the surgeon
