Explanation

My first consultation with Mr Poskitt was very positive from start to finish. He explained clearly the possible treatment pathways suitable for my condition. This enabled me to make a well- informed decision regarding how best to proceed. After some deliberation. I opted for surgical removal of my varicose veins under a general anaesthetic. I’ve never had an operation or a general anaesthetic before but it all went smoothly. Mr Poskitt and his medical team were extremely helpful and professional before, during and after my operation. Therefore, I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Mr Poskitt to anyone considering treatment for varicose veins.

A very experienced professional who took the time to recommend some lifestyle changes to reduce my weight to ensure a successful paraumbilical repair (lost almost two stone). His encouragement and guidance throughout his consultations both pre-and post operative have been first class and although I am still recovering the wound site is healing exceptionally well. Thank you.

I have recently had a hernia operation carried out at the Nuffield Hospital, the consultant / surgeon who carried this procedure out was Keith Poskitt, who explained all that was involved and performed his role in a very professional manner. All in all he carried out a first class operation on me.

Explanation

Mr Poskitt repaired my inguinal hernia in November 2023. I would recommend him to other patients unconditionally. His bedside manner was excellent. I wish to extend my commendation to the whole team at Cheltenham Nuffield too; staff were friendly and accommodating of my requests. Some degree of discomfort during convalesensce from this procedure must be inevitable with the limitations of contemporary medicine, but I was back on my feet the next day and to my normal level of activity within two weeks. I have been advised to avoid heavy straining for a total of six weeks. My recovery was swift and any pain was completely manageable, analgesics only being required for the first five days.
