I went to see Mr Abela because I had a huge stomach from pregnancy. I knew that I needed a tummy tuck. I went to see another plastic surgeon before Mr Abela and she said that I needed additional surgery, she mentioned that my stomach muscles were weak. She gave me Mr Abela details and I contacted him. From the first time I met him he was friendly and very informative, he knew exactly what was needed. I had the surgery and it’s been 3 months, and I feel great. I would definitely recommend Mr Abela. I would also like to say how wonderful and kind his secretary Natalie has been to me.

I have found Christopher Abela to be a skilled and experienced surgeon who is able to undertake complex skin operations and achieve excellent outcomes.
He is kind and sympathetic in listening to his patients' concerns and in chatting through potential courses of action.
I sincerely recommend him.

Mr Abela removed a growth from my 9 year old daughters neck. The scar is so neat and with the scar management advice, it is still improving. Such a good result for my daughter. Thank you so much.

Chris was very reassuring and explained everything in clear English, particularly the confusing medical terms. He answered all of my questions very patiently and I felt like I was in very good hands. I would happily recommend him to other patients.
