Reviews
At the age of 55 I finally decided to look into a breast reduction. After much research I decided to have a consultation with Mr Chester. I cannot stress enough how at ease he made me feel. He was extremely thorough in the initial consultation covering all areas of the procedure and ensuring I was totally aware of all the possible, if unlikely, things that could go wrong.
I decided to go ahead with the procedure and am delighted with the results. I have gone from a 34G to a 34C. The after care has been 100%. I have had regular check ups to ensure breasts and scars are healing as expected.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Mr Chester to anyone thinking of breast reduction.
Extremely professional
I came to see Mr Chester due to struggling to live with self harm scars from years before, it was effecting my confidence and ability to move on, Mr Chester did 2 separate minor surgeries to remove the scars making them less visible. During both my operations Mr Chester kept me calm and comfortable, and I couldn’t of asked for a better surgeon. Mr Chester has turned my life around and given me the confidence I had lost for so many years. I will forever be grateful for what he did for me and he deserves every bit of recognition for the amazing work he does.
Mr Chester operated successfully and was professional explaining the procedure fully. The care I received was excellent and have no hesitation in recommending him.
My minor procedure was exemplary in every way. Mr Chester has excellent communication and surgical skills. I am delighted with the result and would highly recommend him.
