I felt as if I was in very competent hands. Mr Connell took time to explain the procedure and my after care.

After spending years feeling not listened to by medical specialists Mr Connell was the first consultant I met how made me feel actively involved in my care and discussed options with me rather than at me. I will forever be grateful for him and the care he’s given me.
