Dr Bhatia, came to see me when my MRI Scan came back with a serious bulging disc, he informed me a would need emergency surgery that very day. Because of his calm and very informative approach I did not go into full meltdown mode. With all the information he gave me and all the questions he answered I was able to make the right choice for me. The surgery went well and the care I received after from all the nurses was excellent. Dr Bhatia came to see me the two days I stayed in to make sure all was well, I felt extremely well looked after.
I have just returned from my follow up with Dr Bhatia and again felt all my questions were answered and all the information on what now to do moving forward in terms of building strength and how to avoid injuries like this in the future.
Excellent Dr and excellent staff

A very knowledgeable surgeon who explained all the good and bad points of my procedure precisely and clearly. All relevant points and options were clearly explained and sound advice given.
Mr Bhatia has a very friendly and comforting manner and explained everything in a way I could fully understand He made me feel at ease despite facing fairly traumatic surgery. His follow up meetings were exemplary.
I would recommend Mr Robin Bhatia to anybody facing similar surgery to myself.
Thank you Mr Bhatia for a job well done.

I found Mr Robin Bhatia very informative about my condition, and he filled me with confidence that he could solve my problem. This is what he achieved, i have not felt this comfortable and pain free for many years, and would readily put myself into his care at any time in the future.I can now get back to enjoying life again.

Mr Bhatia has simply changed my life. The care from him and his team could not be better. I am now recovering from serious spinal surgery. The courage it must take to do such a delicate procedure is phenomenal, if he got it wrong he'd have to explain to me why I'd have to spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair.
I have nothing but praise for the clinical care I received at Great Western Hospital Swindon.
I thank them all particularly Mr Bhatia for changing my life so much for the better.
