Dr Niven Akotia was my anaesthetist for my operation at Springfield Hospital. He was absolutely fantastic. I was incredibly nervous with it being my first ever operation and he put me at ease as soon as I met him. He was funny, chatty and overall a lovely doctor. When being put to sleep he kept me distracted the whole time by making me laugh. I didn’t even realise he put the cannula in or the anaesthetic in until I started to drift off. After my operation he came to check on me several times. Made sure I was getting my painkillers and drinking enough water. I honestly can’t thank him enough for making me so at ease for an operation I was so worried for. I 10000% recommend Dr Akotia, he is just absolutely brilliant at his job.
