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!

He was very attentive and called up on two separate occasions post surgery to check up on progress and was very receptive to any changes or shifts that were necessary in after surgery care. He also said that if there were any questions I had that I could call him to ask at any reasonable time. For the surgery itself there were no mistakes, he asked my weight and had the right dose straight away. I was asleep almost immediately and awoke a short while afterwards totally fine. The prescriptions given for comfort have worked bar sleeping, which on the second check up I was told the reason why I wasn't sleep properly, and what to do when that happens. Overall, care was top notch and have no complaints or further comments.
