Mr Fisher explained everything to me in detail in a very kind , professional manner. He made the experience a very positive one. I had the surgery and had no pain whatsoever when I woke up or thereafter. I healed very well with no problems. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Mr Fisher again in the future and I would highly recommend him.
5
I felt comfortable and confident right from the start. Mr Fisher explained everything in detail such that I could understand everything that was going to happen before the procedure, during and in recovery. His manner was always very professional and pleasant always showing a high level of care. An appointment was also made with the anaesthetist beforehand who again was excellent and allayed any fear I had with respect to the anaesthetic. I would highly recommend Mr Fisher to anyone who requires this type of surgery.

I had failed to make much progress with my GP services so it was hugely refreshing to meet Mr Fisher who addressed my symptoms with enthusiasm and a determination to resolve them. One month later, I've had my procedure and feel wonderful. I can't thank him enough.
