Mr Balega has been looking after me following a recommendation for an Oophorectomy. He is a lovely human being. Caring. Considerate and explains everything to you in a way that is easy to follow and not scary.

Mr Balega is a real gentleman. He is thorough in his investigation leaving no stone unturned. He shows a willing to go the extra mile for you and gives me the feeling that he puts himself in my shoes. He is tentative and pleasant making my experience very comfortable. I was apprehensive when I booked with him as I had no idea what to expect but he was definitely the right choice. God makes no mistakes, I am sure of that. It is nice to know that there are caring, supportive and genuine Dr's who take pride in their work and wellbeing of their patients and I would definitely without a doubt recommend Mr Balega as anumber 1 choice.

Couldn't have asked for more from Mr Balega, he explained everything really well, he was very polite, respectful and reassuring. I hope to not have any need to see a gynecologist again but if I do I would have no hesitation in asking to see Mr Balega again. His secretary was also very helpful
