Mr Yanni treated me as an individual. He explained everything carefully so I knew what to expect. He kept me very well informed before and throughout the procedure. A very pleasant and caring gentleman. Thank you.

Seen promptly by Mr Yanni following my referral and appointment scheduled within a few weeks. Mr Yanni and his team were professional throughout the procedure, explaining the progress and advising when it may have been a little more uncomfortable. Follow-up appointment completed as promised. Only point worth mentioning was that I did not appreciate before surgery that I would need so long off of work - but I did not ask at my initial appointment presuming a couple of weeks would be sufficient.
