I have to confess that I was extremely nervous prior to my spinal surgery. Dr Siviter was so wonderfully calm and reassuring, explaining the anaesthetic procedure and doing everything he could to put my mind at rest. This continued in the anaesthetic room where he explained each step whilst chatting to me about my past career in the WRAF (I suspect to keep my mind off what was happening!). I trusted him completely and was totally confident that he would take great care of me. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him; in fact, I felt privileged to have him as my anaesthetist.
Dr Siviter gave me a thorough explanation of the GA process and explained in detail how I would be managed and taken care of during the operation, including the steps taken to avoid any further health problems during the operation. I very much appreciated his pre-op discussion.
I’ve unfortunately had a few operations in recent years involving general anaesthetic, and am very happy to report that that I found Dr Richard Siviter, caring, supportive and informative as my anaesthetist for my back operation.
The doctor was kind and attentive
This was my first surgery and I was quite nervous about the anaesthetic and feeling out of control. Dr Siviter was very patient and took time to reassure me. I would definitely recommend Dr Siviter to other patients, particularly those feeling nervous.
