I had a total laparoscopic vaginally-assisted hysterectomy with Dr Arambage in Sept 2020. I had a telephone consultation first where Dr Arambage listened and gave me his advice, following a transfer of my case from another consultant. I had previously had a diagnosis of adenomyosis and endometriosis and was trying the Mirena coil but after 12 months and an earlier laparoscopy, I felt I wasn't seeing much improvement. Having tried other medications and pain killers in the past, we agreed that a hysterectomy may offer me a more longer term solution for my pain and bowel problems (period related). I was very nervous but Dr Arambage and his team helped put me at ease (as too did his secretary Fiona, the day before surgery). He is a very knowledgeable, professional and kind doctor, who genuinely wants to help and I do feel lucky to have been a patient of his. Three months on, and although recovery has been tough, I am feeling more positive with much reduced pain. My bowel pain so far has also been so much better, now that I am nolonger having periods. I am aware endometriosis can come back, but I'm feeling more hopeful about the future. Thank you Dr Arambage and Fiona. Also, Dr Arambage called my husband after surgery to give him an update - a lovely, personal touch.
