Khaleel repaired my incisional hernia. He used keyhole surgery after a previous open surgery did not fully repair the original weakness / unzipping of a midline incision. He was thoughtful, positive and realistic before surgery. The result was ....and is ...superb. The operation itself is a success and now onto recovery and rehab.. The proceedure was expertly completed, and although it took longer in surgery (because it was the 3rd op on the area) the outcome is excellent. He removed adhesions, repaired 3 hernias along the original incision line and placed mesh to reinforce the site. He is a very talented surgeon and the result has left me in a very strong position. 3 weeks after the operation and I am getting ready to go back to work and thinking abut physio. (after the requisite full recovery period). He is a warm and interested surgeon on an interpersonal basis who genuinely cares for his patients. I would very happily recommend him. I also felt reassured that the procedure was carried out at the Royal Derby (part of the NHS with it's resources - and not a small satellite), and happier with the notion of some of the monies returning into the Trust.
