wow i can't believe i only had my gastric sleeve done only 5 days ago, i am feeling fantastic, no pain or discomfort in anyway. Mr Sherif Awad was amazing from the first consultation to the day of discharge met him the morning of surgery his bedside manner is amazing he also met me at the theatre and made me feel so calm then the after care he gives is superb.constantly in touch to see how things are going. I have to say the staff at the hospital the team with Mr Awad and Mr Awad himself absolutely amazing i cannot thank them enough Mrs S Lyons
I first met Mr Awad at my initial consultation in February 2017. He listened to my medical history, took comprehensive notes and then planned the most suitable surgery for my needs.
I booked my surgery with Mr Awad through Tonic and I can't commend their professionalism and support enough. I was supported every step of the way in my lead up to my surgery on 27th April, which was carried out in the Derby Royal Private Wing.
On the day of my surgery, I was collected from home by a chauffeur provided by tonic and driven up to the Derby Royal Hospital.
I met with various medical professionals, nurses, physio, and just before my surgery, met with Mr Awad who went through everything again with me and made me feel relaxed and well informed about my procedure.
The surgery went to plan with no complications and I was back in my private room in 2 hours. I had round the clock monitoring and support and Mr Awad visited every day to ensure my care and recovery was going well.
On the morning of my discharge, Mr Awad sat down with me and went through my after care and medications and ensured I had all the contact numbers I needed. He advised that he would see me in his follow up clinic in about 8 weeks time.
The care and support I have been given throughout my weight loss journey has been amazing and I couldn't have asked for a better consultant or company to help me through this. You have helped me take the first steps in getting control back of my life, and my only regret is that I didn't come to you sooner.
Thank you so much for everything x
I had surgery 9 days ago with dr awad at derby hospital. Dr awad made me feel very at ease, polite and professional. The surgery went well. Hospital was amazing. Chauffeur to and from hospital was a life saver. My incisions are tiny! The whole team at tonic who is the provider give great after care. I am really happy with my choice to get a gastric sleeve with dr awad and would recommend him.
A fantastic doctor, really reassured me and explained everything thoroughly to me! Was efficient with aftercare and was very friendly putting me at ease. Already feeling the benefits of his work!
I consulted with Mr Awad regarding a gastric band, during my first consultation I was quite nervous at first, but he immediately put me at ease, was not judgemental, and listened to all my concerns and guided me in the right direction for me, and we agreed that the gastric sleeve would be more beneficial. Mr Awad was amazing on the day of the surgery, very reassuring, had plenty of time to talk to me. He offered to call a family member to let them know how surgery had gone while I was in recovery. He visited me a number of times post op to monitor my progress and reassure me how I was doing. I really cant rate Mr Awad highly enough, he made something quite scary into an experience that was far more relaxed than I thought it could be, and the encouragement he gave me was amazing.
