Professor Robert Jones is professional and clear with patients. He helps put people at ease. Care is safe from start to end. Most notes cite gallstone surgery and hernia care.
Professor Jones was clear, concise and took time to understand my concerns and current situation.
Rob was great and operation couldn't have gone better. Had a few admin hiccups with axa / spire but nothing to do with the actual operation
Professor Jones has a friendly professional manner, the procedure was explained clearly, all risks and side effects were covered. The procedure went well and recovery was quicker than expected.
I recently had umbilical hernia repair surgery carried out by Prof. Rob Jones. He was very clear about what the surgery entailed and how I should handle my recovery.
I would highly recommend Professor Robert Jones to anyone facing gallbladder surgery. After being diagnosed with gallstones and experiencing increasingly troublesome symptoms, I was understandably apprehensive about having surgery. From my first consultation, Professor Jones was reassuring, thorough and genuinely listened to my concerns. He explained everything clearly and made sure I fully understood my options before making my decision. I received a follow up letter a few days later summarising everything we discussed. He arranged the necessary investigations beforehand, which gave me great confidence that surgery was the right course of action for me. My laparoscopic gallbladder removal was carried out in July, and I felt I was in very safe and capable hands throughout. I am now 8 weeks post op, recovering very well, in fact, have never felt better! I am very pleased I went ahead with the procedure. I hope this review reassures anyone who may be feeling anxious about gallbladder surgery. Having a consultant who takes the time to listen, explain and reassure really does make a difference. Thank you, Professor Jones and your team for your excellent care.
Great bed side manner from all the staff I dealt with. Rob Jones, was professional, reassuring and approachable.
A charming gentleman who inspired confidence and allayed anxiety. The arrangements were prompt and professional and the care was excellent.
I turned to Professor Robert Jones after long waits and endless disappointments with the NHS. He immediately diagnosed my severe right-sided rib pain radiating to my back and performed my gallbladder surgery. Since July 13th, I haven't had a single pain! I am infinitely grateful to him for his exceptional care.
Following a prolonged period of persistent but not acute abdominal pain, a HIDA scan identified a poorly functioning gallbladder, leading to laparoscopic removal. The surgery has completely resolved the ongoing discomfort and I am thrilled with the outcome. The surgeon was excellent throughout, professional, reassuring and clear at every stage. I could not have asked for better care or a better result.
Professor Jones is a highly respected laparoscopic surgeon in Liverpool, with particular expertise in complex liver and sarcoma surgery. I have had the opportunity to discuss patients with him. He is highly knowledgeable, approachable and a valued colleague.
