A very successful outcome from a double hernia operation. Mr Parameswaran was very professional in his manner, explained the process and was happy to answer any questions. Incision scars are minimal which has helped to a quick recovery.

From my very first consultation for laparoscopic bilateral inguinal hernia surgery, Mr. Parameswaran put me at ease. He took the time to explain everything clearly and even suggested a scan on the other side of my hernia. That extra attention led to a change in the plan — from one-sided surgery to bilateral — which had not been suggested by a previous surgeon. On the day of surgery, he came across as calm, confident, and in complete control of his team. I obviously can’t comment on the operation itself (being under general anaesthetic!), but the results speak for themselves — just two weeks later, I’m almost back to my normal mobility and completely pain-free. I’m very grateful for his professionalism, clear communication, and skill as a surgeon, and I feel lucky to have been in such capable hands.

I had a laparoscopic cholecystectomy from Mr Parameswaren recently and am glad I chose him for my surgery. From the pre-op consultation, right through to the post-op follow up, Mr Parameswaren made me feel listened to and allowed plenty of time to answer any questions I had. Despite not being a typical patient for gallbladder related issues, I felt I was taken seriously from the first appointment. Five weeks on and my scars are healed neatly and I can eat whatever I want! I would recommend Mr Parameswaren to a friend going through gallbladder issues. Thank you for all your help!
