I like about him, that he cares about his patients, that he listens to them and that he tries to get a smile from them, when they wake up. I also like, that he came to my room to see how I'm doing. He explained very clearly how to take the painkillers. He also gave me a call to find out, how I'm doing at home. A very caring doctor!!!!

I cannot thank Dr Peter Karpati enough for the exceptional care he gave to me prior to my operation, during & post. Through each stage of the process Dr Karpati gave me clear advice / information via phone, email & in person - I must admit I really was not expecting this level of care / attention especially as Doctors have such demanding jobs & are extremely busy people. Prior to surgery Dr Karpati totally reassured me with his kind & friendly manner ..... he put my mind at rest and also made me laugh during the prep for theatre. It was when i received a telephone call on the Saturday evening that i realised how lucky i was to have Dr Karpati looking after me ...... i was totally bowled over by his professionalism & genuine care for me. I had underdone surgery the previous day - the purpose of his call was to check how i was feeling post anaesthetic and to advise me on pain relief. So to summarize - I am very very grateful to have had Dr Karpati looking after me ...... Thank you Peter ..... You are a legend :-)

Mr Karpati was sympathetic and explained everything clearly. He made me feel at ease, althouh initially he frightened me a bit suggesting that the post op pain was going to require strong analgesics. It was not that bad at all as the surgeon had reassured me it would be. His calls post op were much appreciated and he answered my queries promptly.

I was absolutely petrified about having a general anaesthetic - I felt like I was about to be hanged after being on death row. Dr Karpati put me at ease and I didn't even realise the anaesthetic was about to take effect. When I woke up I didn't even know I'd been asleep or had the operation!
