Mr Gnanachandran listened to my concerns and outlined the possible routes for surgery together with the outcomes. Although I had to wait a long while for my operation I felt confident that every aspect of the procedure would be dealt with professionally and would have every confidence in recommending him to future patients.

From the first moment with Mr Gnanachandran I felt completely at ease. I was made to feel comfortable during my first consultation. I was very happy with the surgery. The after care has also been very thorough. His care and professionalism made the whole experience positive for me. I would not hesitate to recommend him, know that you are in very good hands if you have an appointment with him.

Mr Gnanachandran is very professional and at the same time very approachable. He discussed options with me thoroughly and explained the pros and cons in order that I could make an informed decision. When an issue rose with the slot for surgery on the day when I was waiting to be called he made every effort to discuss options with the surgical teams and secured a time for surgery so that I was not let down.
