Mr. Abela was very caring and fully understood the problem I had. He is professional and yet very approachable. He takes time to listen and offers very realistic advice and solutions.
I found him also comfortable to talk to and you come away knowing that you are in great hands!

My first treatment was in December 2015 prior to the operation everything was explained in detail and I was very relaxed.
My follow up check was in March when I was seen speedily with no waiting.The surgery being successful.
The final consultation was January 2017 and again was invited to contact the Dr if any concerns
I was delighted with the whole procedure and the results of reconstruction.
You are in safe hands

The care under Mr Abela and his team has been excellent from start to finish. From the initial consultation, through to and during surgery, post surgery and up to being discharged in September 2016. In addition to top care and expertise, I was very impressed with the efficient and friendly service not only by Chris but all staff involved. Thank you very much and I definitely highly recommend him and his team.
Wishing you the best of luck for the future.

Mr. Abela heads a department that is efficient, friendly, and genuinely caring, for every patient. The surgical procedure was undertaken with 'clinical excellence' as standard.
Another superb example of the NHS at its very best.
