I’ve nothing but praise for Mr Cazzaniga and his team. Time was taken to explain everything fully prior to the procedure and I felt very reassured and in safe hands. This level of support continued after the procedure and subsequent consultation.

Recently had surgery for a kidney mass. Today I popped in to have a post-op catch up. From our first consultation, to surgery and post op the whole process was explained very clearly. Walter gave me his honest opinion both professionally and personally which put me at ease making decisions about the best course of action.

Mr Cazzaniga provided outstanding care for my son. His communication was exceptional, he took the time to explain the procedure clearly and it was easy to understand. He gave plenty of time for questions and offered real reassurance throughout. The aftercare was equally brilliant, and he even showed photos of the operation to help us understand what had been done. Thank you to Walter and all the fantastic staff.
