When I had my first appointment with Mr Chester we talked through options and the procedure. I felt that I too was able to have input into my treatment which made me feel more comfortable about the whole experience. On the day of surgery, Mr Chester was so reassuring and I felt at ease right from the start. I had a Basal Cell carcinoma removed from my face, and naturally following surgery and stiches I looked as one would expect. I followed Mr Chester's guidance post surgery and gradually I started to heal well. After a week I had a few stiches removed and the rest dissolved. After just 4 months the scar was barely visible with make-up and kept on improving. It is now 8 months following the surgery and I could not be more pleased with the result, without make-up the scar is barely visible and with make-up it is impossible to see that I have had any surgery at all. I truly believe that the outstanding result I have received is due to Mr Chester's knowledge and above all the skilled hands of an excellent surgeon. I would highly recommend Mr Chester.

I had a breast Augmentation in Aug 2022. I went from a B cup to a DD which was achieved with 360ml implants. 5 months on and I couldn’t be happier with the service. The consultations were thorough and very informative. All options were presented to me so I felt completely happy once I had made my choice on size and type of implant. The surgery went without any issues and my recovery time was exactly as Mr Chester had described. Aftercare and follow up appointments were also excellent. I can highly recommend Mr Chester and my breasts look absolutely amazing!

I had a tummy tuck with muscle repair back in September at Solihull Parkway hospital with Mr Chester. He is a fantastic surgeon. I never really liked my stomach, even before I had put weight on. I finally managed to lose all the weight I gained which was around 6 stone in total. As expected, I was left with loose skin and it really got me down on a daily basis. I'm 27 and for years and years I felt I wasn't able to wear anything nice – I always covered myself up and it really affected my mental health. I'm very nearly 3 months post op and there's still some mild swelling but even with this, I'm feeling absolutely fantastic. The surgery hasn't just given me my life back, it's given me so much more. For the first time ever, I'm able to wear tops tucked into high waisted jeans and skirts and I feel so confident. I once read a review where one of Mr Chester's previous patients had said the scar is as if it's been drawn on with a fine pen, and that's exactly what it looks like. It's fantastic. I'm only 3 months post op so the scar should carry on fading but in all honestly, I've grown to love it. It shows how far I've come. I want to say a massive thank you to Mr Chester for his kindness and always making sure I was comfortable along the way. You have changed my life and I will forever be grateful. I'd also like to say a massive thank you to Mr Chester's PA for always getting back to me so quickly and for being so helpful. Finally, a huge thank you to the lovely nurses and all the staff at Solihull Parkway. I was at Parkway for 2 nights and every single person I spoke to were very lovely and took really great care of me. As soon as the nurses heard I was having surgery with Mr Chester, they couldn't praise him enough! Everyone says such lovely things. Initially, I was very nervous about having this surgery done because it is quite a big operation but Mr Chester explained everything in great detail and it put my mind at ease because I felt as though I went into the operation knowing the most I possibly could. For those who have their surgeries booked, I'm super excited for you. Having a tummy tuck does have a long recovery period but it's so so worth it.

I had Breast Reduction Surgery 8 Months ago by Mr Darren Chester. My results have far far exceeded my expectations. I am absolutely delighted and very very happy with my new shape and size. In fact, I can’t stop looking at them in the mirror, I’m so thrilled with the outcome. I followed all the advice provided and the scaring is so minimal that I don’t even regard them as scars. Underneath I have a very slight silver line which is so faint it’s like a pencil line. The scaring around my nipples and the vertical scars running down my breasts are almost impossible to see and you would never imagine they were not always like this. I went from a 34H to approximately a 34C. The whole procedure from beginning to end went exceptionally smoothly. The procedure was pain free and without complications. This of course was due to Mr Chester being such a talented exceptional surgeon and his amazing, kind, efficient secretary Emma. No wonder Mr Darren Chester is such a highly sought after Surgeon with impeccable manners and listening skills. My aftercare has been amazing and I would very highly recommend Mr Chester. The whole process was explained clearly, compassionately and very calmly making me feel extremely at ease from the first consultation to the end of my journey. This was a very pleasant experience and no words can convey how thankful and grateful I feel. I honestly cannot thank Mr Chester and Emma enough.
