Mr Makhosini Mlotshwa was amazing. He explained everything in great detail and photographs and lots of information before the operation. He answered everything I wanted to know and if I needed to more information etc he was great at getting back to me. Really kind lovely Guy. After the operation he checked I was ok and went through everything.
Many thanks for your wonderful feedback

Mr Mlotshwa was absolutely wonderful. He kept me updated every step of the way, gave me reassurance whenever I needed it and plenty of opportunities to ask questions. I'm now 5 months post-op and couldn't be happier. A huge thank you to him and his team!
Thank you for your comments. Glad the results were satisfactory for you.

I don’t think I could have had a better surgeon and team. I have had first class care and felt very secure knowing I could call anytime. I am delighted with the results.
Thank you for this valuable feedback. Best wishes

I cannot recommend Makho enough. One year on from my surgery I am 100% satisfied with the surgery and outcomes, the pre and post communications, Makho made himself available to answer my questions. He was patient and explained the procedure clearly as well as showing real interest in the recovery and ongoing weight loss and health benefits. The nurse and nutritionist follow-ups were excellent. Faultless end to end. I have no hesitation in recommending Makho and team.
Thank you for this helpful feedback. Most importantly, we are happy you got optimal results. Best wishes

A lovely consultant. He explained exactly what he would be doing and how long it would take, recovery time, etc.and was open to any questions i had explaining exactly what i wanted to know. He has a lovely manner and i trusted him completely as i was a bit nervous at the decision i had made to go through with the operation. I have spoken to him twice since the operation and have been reassured that everything is healing well and that the operation was a complete success.
Many thanks for your comments. We aim to deliver the best care as a team. This is valuable feedback
