Reviews
Mr Chitsabesan put me at ease from the moment I attended the Nuffield Hospital in York. I needed a repair to a previous hernia op which had gone wrong. (Not performed by Mr Chitsabesan). I was completely aware of the procedure, what he was going to do, what it entailed and what I had to do once I left hospital. He has a very pleasant and easy manner and made me feel confidant I was in the right place with the 'right' surgeon in attendance.
No complaints whatsoever.
I have recently visited Mr Chitsabesan with some medical symptoms I have been worrying about. In meeting Mr C I was instantly put at ease with his warm welcome and smile. After a discussion and examination he explained some of the tests he would like to do to help with diagnosis. At no time did I feel any pressure to have these tests done or to do anything I wasn't comfortable with, he explained what would happen any why he was doing it. Afterwards if felt so much better and I was totally confident to be in his hands going forward. Things I forgot to ask him I emailed his secretary and was answered in hours. After the tests, which again everything was explained and I was in control throughout, Mr C discussed with me the results straight away. I would be happy and confident to recommend Mr Chitsabesan to anyone.
Mr Chitsabesan repaired an Umbilical Hernia for me. A very neat job and all seems to be well 2 weeks after the operation. He explained everything clearly and put me at ease.
Very approachable but also very professional. Hope I don't have to use him again ! But if I did, wouldn't hesitate to let him sort me out.

Mr Chitsabesan is a very friendly, caring and approachable doctor. Throughout my treatment he explained everything thoroughly, listened to me and answered all my questions. I would highly recommend him.
