Reviews
Very clear with explanations. Has a very calm attitude and gives a lot of confidence. Makes patient feel in safe hands. Excellent bedside manner!
Dr Peter Karpati gave me great care , he made sure I was ok by calling me at home to make sure I got instructions and a care continuation after the op. I would recommend him to anyone that needs his care. Thank you very much .
I have never had a doctor/anaesthetist as thorough and caring as Dr Karpati.
He spent a lot of time checking my medical history and medication to ensure there would be no problems in performing sedation.
He has a wonderful bedside manner.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Dr Karpati
Dr Peter Karpati who made the experience of going under general anesthesia completely stress free.
He explained everything and inserted the candela into my hand effortlessly. He is a good team player and worked extremely well with his colleague to put me to sleep.
We all had a good conversation as Dr Karpati worked on me.
I woke up with no pain and no nausea. I was completely alert very quickly. There is no bruising where the cannula was removed.
He explained what was going to happen in the room before I went down to theatre. He was very nice when administering the anaesthetic. However I do have a massive bruise on the back of my hand as a result!
Thank you for taking the time to feedback on your experience. As I have mentioned previously, we clinicians are never certain which one of our valued patients is giving feedback. I was sorry to read that you had a massive bruise on your hand. There are several possible factors for this: either during the insertion of the cannula (in which case I would have warned you about it) or during its removal, either due to lack of effective compression of the site for a few minutes thereafter. Obviously some of us bruise more easily than others. Hope this helps and once again thank you for your review.
