Mr Manu Sood

Written by a private patient at Spire Hartswood Hospital

Mr Sood is an lovely human being and exceptionally professional. From the first consultation appointment I was put right at ease. Mr Sood explained the procedure, risks and benefits & asked me to go away to think about everything whilst also reading some websites he gave me the URLs for. After following Mr Sood's instructions I returned for my second consultation. It was agreed that, so long as I understood everything, surgery would be the best course of action to achieve my desired results. As I had a very large upcoming event approaching (moving home) Mr Sood suggested it wasn't wise to have two critical events crossing wires and we got the surgery scheduled for mid-November. On surgery day I was admitted to my room and saw Mr Sood who was his usual lovely & calm self. He re-explained the procedure and drew the surgical lines on me in preparation and answered all my final questions. I then saw Mr Sood for the final time before my surgery as I was waiting in the pre-OR anaesthetic room. Woke up, ate and went home no problems. When booking my follow-up post OP appointment I actually heard from Mr Sood's secretary that he came up to my room once he'd finished all his surgery to see how I was and check on me but I'd already gone home - that was really nice to hear how much he cared to check up on me. I can't accurately describe how I felt when I took the compressor bandage off for the first time. Having the biggest personal weight I'd been carrying (mentally as well as physically) removed was an incredible feeling. Whilst I'm still in the very early stages of my rest & recovery whereby I cannot exercise yet, I know that this surgery is really going to change my life for the better. In my first post-surgery follow-up appointment with Mr Sood he was very pleased with my recovery progress and, again, answered all of my questions. Mr Sood told me that as long as I maintained a healthy weight I would see further reductions in my size by 10/15% because though it might not look it externally, I am still bruised and swollen from the procedure in the surrounding areas. I had a very surreal & what I thought to be weird experience of emotions/ feelings when I saw Mr Sood for the post-surgery follow-up appointment. After getting home later that evening and googling whether what I experienced was normal I found that it actually was. The experience was, namely, feeling incredible levels of warmth, appreciation and even love towards the plastic surgeon consultant who performed a procedure that has significantly changed my life for the better. I have unrivaled levels of respect, admiration & thanks towards Mr Sood for doing what he did, he really has changed my life more than he can possibly imagine. I'm very much looking forward to my next follow-up appointment in early March, 2022. To anyone considering having a procedure done with Mr Sood, don't even hesitate! Thank you Mr Sood :D

Mr Sood performed an abdominalplasty with muscle repair on 22 May 2021, leading up to my appointment Mr Sood and his staff Kathy and Lucy were absolutely amazing with booking appointments, keeping me informed of information and answering all my concerns nothing was too much trouble. i saw Mr Sood regularly leading upto my appointment which kept me on track with further weight loss prior to my surgery. On the day of my procedure everything ran smoothly and all staff at the Spire Brentwood were so approachable and professional and made me feel really comfortable, the facilities were perfect. Mr Sood came to see me prior to my procedure and made me feel very relaxed, my anaesthetist was also very informative and made me feel at ease. The aftercare I received in the two days as an inpatient were outstanding in every aspect from the care I received from all levels of staff to the food and my room. I am extremely pleased with the outcome of my procedure only wish I had booked this years ago. I had a t Junction incision and had a slight issue with healing in this T section of my scar, which Mr Sood had advised me about that in some cases this happens, my aftercare with the nurses and Mr Sood regarding my healing were amazing and Mr Sood constantly reassured me that the area would heal, and it did ! I am six months post op and couldn’t be happier with my outcome and would highly recommend Mr Sood and the Spire hospital Brentwood. I am looking forward to my post op follow up appointment today with Mr Sood. everything about my experience was positive.

I will be forever grateful to Mr Sood . His pre and post care were second to none and this man has literally changed my life. He was hard to research but I now realise that he does not need to advertise as his work speaks for itself . What a lovely kind caring man he is . My operation was an extended TT and MR and I could not be happier. The scar is excellent and the result AMAZING !!! He was recommended to me by my friend and i feel lucky to have come across him

Mr Sood performed my mastopexy and breast augmentation and I can honestly say I could not have wished for anyone better! I knew of Mr Sood as he had removed a large melanoma from my Dad’s head–which you can barely now see-so I knew Mr Sood’s work was very good. I arranged a consultation with Mr Sood to discuss the look I was hoping to achieve and he was very honest and told me all of the possible outcomes and what to realistically expect. I was sent the documentation to read through at my leisure and the option to book another follow up if I wish to discuss further, which I did. I decided to go ahead with the procedure but due to Covid the op was rearranged a couple of times so I was in contact with Mr Sood’s secretaries who are both so friendly and helpful. A week before the procedure I had a doubt as to whether I was going for the right size implant. Mr Sood asked to see me again just to make sure that we were both 100% certain with what we had discussed, which we were. I had the procedure at Spire Hartswood where the staff who looked after me were lovely. I was feeling nervous about being anesthetised and on the morning of the procedure the anaesthetist came to speak with me and completely put my mind at rest. Mr Sood then came in and prepared me for the op and was very calm and put me at ease. Although I was very comfortable after the procedure, the nurses were on hand for anything I needed and nothing was too much trouble. Mr Sood came to see me that evening to see how I was feeling and said he was very pleased with how it went. As am I! I went to the Hartswood once a week to have my dressings changed and the incisions checked. Inbetween that I had a couple of worries to which they had no hesitation in checking me over for my peace of mind and all was fine. Despite being so busy, Mr Sood was always on hand when the nurses asked him to check anything during the healing progress. Overall, I would completely recommend Mr Sood. His manner is calm, he is honest in his opinion and his work is fantastic. My incisions are very neat and fading well. The outcome is more than I expected and I am so unbelievably happy with the results - it's exactly what I wanted. I’m over the moon with the whole process from the consultations, the staff, Mr Sood’s work, the outcome, the whole thing! I wish I’d have not worried so much and done it sooner! I would completely recommend Mr Sood – you will be in very good hands!
