Mr Benjamin Robert Hornung

At my first consultation I was put immediately at ease by the friendly yet very professional discussion with Mr Hornung. He listened to me before explaining, in easy to understand terms, exactly what my surgery would entail. My questions regarding post-operative recovery were answered fully and honestly. I was totally reassured and I was in a very positive frame of mind on the day of my operation which went very smoothly. I was discharged the same day but not before I was told what to expect over the next few weeks. Again, this was very reassuring. A follow-up call with Mr Hornung took place on the date agreed when I again expressed my satisfaction with the operation and the positive outcome. From beginning to end, I felt that I was in very good hands.

Mr Hornung conducted a small bowel resection for me in March 2023 at the Spire Manchester. He provided a first class experience, from initial consultation through to discharge and he instilled total confidence in what he was undertaking. Without doubt a highly-skilled and very professional surgeon, I would have no hesitation in recommending his services to anyone requiring abdominal surgery.

A top professional who does care deeply about his patient’s wellbeing including for the Along term. He is very gentle at the same time very honest, and wanted to solve my problems on a long run (despite I was initially wanting minimally invasive procedures (and I was proffered wrong)) I am delighted with the LigaSure surgery for my poor guts and still cannot believe my luck that I met such an honest top level surgeon who took an effort to convince me to do a right thing for me! I am very deeply grateful to Mr. Hornung, who (despite his achievements) is a very understated, humble, positive person. THANK YOU VERY MUCH

From my very recent experience of keyhole surgery for a sygmoid colectomy, Ben Hornung and his team carried out a very successful procedure which resulted in an extremely short stay in hospital following the operation. Ben was able to reassure me in advance of the surgery that I was in very safe, knowledgeable and competent hands and therefore I did not have any worrying or undue concerns. In all honesty, I cannot praise Ben enough.

I was referred to Ben for a colonoscopy. Having had a sigmoidoscopy during my 20's, I was not really looking forward to having to go through the procedure of a colonoscopy. Although Ben had reassured me during our initial visit, previous experiences caused me to be very apprehensive about the day. I can reassure anyone reading this that Ben is an absolute professional, as well as his team. I was looked after from start to finish and the procedure itself was not at all what I had built it up to be. I put this down to being under the care of Ben. During the procedure, Ben removed 2 polyps and banded an area where piles were observed. I will be going back in 3 years to see Ben again, just as a precaution and I must say that I am not at all concerned or worried about this. Thank you Ben and your team for looking after me so well.
