I cannot comment highly enough on the exemplary level of care provided by Mr Chester. The professional, honest and understanding advice and information he offered enabled me to make an informed decision. I cannot thank Mr Chester enough and would have no hesitation passing on recommendation.

had a small lump removed from forehead, consultant explained what to expect, what would happen, what the risks were, very nicely & patiently . Procedure went exactly as described & outcome appears to be excellent. Follow up visit was as good as consultation, and the procedure i would certainly have no hesitation recommending Mr Chester from my experience

Mr Chester treated me for a large cyst on my back. From initial diagnosis through to be discharged, Mr Chester put me at ease, was very informative and accurate in the information he gave me about the procedure and also aftercare. I couldn't be happier with the result and would absolutely recommend Mr Chester to anyone that needs his services. Top class service by a great professional.

By far the best doctor I have had. I had a keloid scar on my ear and received steroid injections and a small operation to debulk the keloid. I was a patient for over a year with Dr Chester, he was absolutely amazing and really made me feel at ease every time as I was so nervous. I couldn’t be happier with the treatment and care I have received, and I am so thankful for his support.
