Reassuring and kind. Exceptionally helpful explanations. My outcome testifies to his skill. Without doubt a gifted surgeon.

I found Mr Fisher to be a lovely man and an excellent surgeon. He explained my procedure, told me what to expect and how I would feel afterwards. I had every confidence in him. Post op, I have minimal scarring and feel great - Thank you.
5
I cannot fault Mr Fisher he has a very positive approach to his work and he explained everything very well to me from what was happening with my gallbladder and the reasons why and what to expect from the surgery / recovery period thereafter all of which were spot on. Highly recommend.
5
Mr. Fisher completely relaxed me after the first consultation, explaining in detail what had happened, and the procedure to repair. He offered up two options which again he explained in detail the benefits of both.
5
Dr Fisher was extremely approachable, calm and had a gentle manner. He explained everything to me in a way I could understand, both with what was wrong with me and what he was going to do.
5
I was extremely impressed with Simon Fisher and the whole experience was very smooth and professional. I particularly appreciated his explanation of the procedure, my options, what would happen during the operation and post-op recovery. The operation itself was a complete success and full recovery has resulted. The follow up consultation some weeks after the operation was also welcomed as giving me assurance on the success of the procedure and the opportunity to ask any questions. I very strongly recommend Simon to anyone considering surgery.
5
I found Mr Fisher very friendly, informative and pleasant.

Mr Fisher listened to me well and explained everything carefully. He was not rushed. And he is an excellent surgeon.

I was aware I was under first class care. He inspired confidence and appeared to be very thorough. He was able to diagnose my condition where others had failed and to cure the problem. Without doubt I would rate him the best consultant I have seen.
Thank you for taking the time to write this very kind review. I’m glad that we were able to resolve your problem. Best wishes, Simon
