Brilliant experience with Mr Price. Fitted me in at short notice. All done in half an hour. Healed up beautifully following his advice. One happy patient.
My recent visit with Mr Price was excellent. He always listens carefully to my concerns and makes me feel supported and very well looked after. I am always extremely happy with my experience with him.
Polite and professional. Explained the surgery and risks clearly. Took time to answer questions.
Mr Price was outstanding from start to finish. He immediately put me at ease and took the time to answer every question in plain, straightforward English. Nothing felt rushed or brushed aside — he made sure I fully understood what was happening and what to expect. I walked out feeling genuinely confident that I’d found the right surgeon to help me. Couldn’t recommend him highly enough.
Highly professional, knowledgeable and skilled. I have seen him for both the surgical removal of BCCs and for aesthetic treatments, and have always been very happy with the standard of care and the results. I trust his judgement completely and am more than happy to travel a considerable distance to see him.
After having visited Dr. Price's consultancy, being concerned about facial skin cancer, he then arranged for me to have a biopsy on the NHS, within just a week of seeing him for which I am extremely grateful. It was crass inappatitude on my part that I had been checking my results on My Chart as opposed to "my letters" so it was only today that I opened the letter he kindly sent me explaining that I wasn't suffering from serious skin cancer. I cannot praise Dr. Price enough for his efficiency and generosity. I will not hesitate in visiting him again in the event of future health issues.
Felt comfortable from start of my experience with choosen surgery at Spire Lea Cambridge. I have chosen Mr Price for priory surgery procedure, so knew I was in safe and experienced hands.
Very happy with final appointment for my procedure, very thorough and professional
