Mr Chester carried out an abdominoplasty 3 years ago and I am extremely please with the results.
I was left with muscle separation and a noticeable tummy bulge (I was often asked if I was pregnant) following the birth of twins. Mr Chester had an excellent personal manner and was willing to spend the time to explain the procedure in full to me and the recovery period.
The recovery period was challenging, but I expected this. 3 years on I have a strong flat stomach again and I have been able to resume normal activities again.

The whole process from start to finish was faultless. I was made to feel very comfortable from the first appointment to my last check-up. Would highly recommend Dr Chester to friends/family.
Cannot think of any improvements that Dr Chester could make to improve the experience, very satisfied with treatment I received.

Mr Chester is a fantastic surgeon. From my first consultation, I was made to feel at ease and felt very comfortable talking to him. He is very kind, caring and knowledgeable. He thoroughly explained everything to me and I felt I was able to ask as many questions as I wanted.
I was very nervous on the day of the operation, but Mr Chester reassured me throughout. The aftercare I received was also fantastic.
I cannot thank him enough for the service he provided and would highly recommend him to others.

Mr Darren Chester performed abdominoplasty and breast augmentation on me 3 months ago. From the first appointment I had with mr Chester until now I was made to feel comfortable throughout. My initial consultation lasted an hour long which was very professional, he explained thoroughly the pros and cons of the proceeders, expectations, possible complications etc....I went away and thought about what we spoke about then after deciding to go ahead I met Mr Chester once again and went through it all again until I fully understood. I find Mr Chester a very approachable consultant and never have I hesitated to contact him with a query. I was very nervous on the day of the operation but was quickly made to feel comfortable and reassured throughout. The aftercare that I have been given has been fantastic, I have seen him for many weekly sessions after the procedure to make sure everything is healing correctly and that I felt OK with everything. I can't express enough how grateful I am for the service he has given me throughout and I would highly recommend him to others.
