The whole experience was very positive from the first meeting through to post-operative consultation. Follow-up treatment and future care plans were explained in full. Mr. Aziz was very pro-active & treated my case with immediate response. At all times, I was fully informed, supported and all my queries were answered with sensitivity and honesty. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Mr. Aziz. All aspects of my care were superb.

From the moment I was diagnosed with the illness/condition, Mr Aziz and his team have been nothing short of outstanding and professional with all their hard work and support in helping me get through what was a very traumatic and harrowing experience. From the initial consultancy to the operation and continuing through to post operative care, he has taken the time to explain the everything in detail and this continues in my post operation recovery - I cant thank him and his team enough.

Since being placed in the care of Mr Aziz I have received nothing but outstanding support from him and his team. From the initial consultant right through to post operative care he was support and would often take the time to explain the situation in detail. I am very grateful to have been placed in his care as I look to continue my recovery.
