Reviews
I recently had a hernia operation at spire hospital Leicester performed by Gavin Robertson, he explained all about the operation in great detail and put me at ease, I would definitely recommend him to anyone in the same position as me.
I had a stone removed from my bile duct and my gall bladder removed by Mr Robertson. At each stage, he explained the procedure clearly and concisely and answered all my questions and concerns in a reassuring manner. My recovery has been fantastic! I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone facing a similar diagnosis.
Mr Robertson did an operation to repair my hernia at Spire hospital in Leicester. He came highly recommended by a friend on whom he had performed a similar operation just a few weeks earlier. I have to say that I have not been disappointed in any way. At the initial consultation he explained fully in language that made it very easy for me to understand, exactly the type of hernia I had, and what he would do to repair it. The operation went ahead only 3 weeks after that initial consultation. He came to see me once I had woken up to reassure me that it had gone well. The care I received at Spire was superb, and my recovery time was remarkably quick. I cannot recommend Mr Robertson highly enough. Not having private health care insurance I was self funding, but it was money very well spent.
Mr Robertson was thoroughly professional and provided full details of the procedure in a calm measured way. Post Op he visited me soon afterwards and explained the likely recuperation period which has proved to be totally accurate. No hesitation in recommending him to anyone.
Mr Robertson showed a very professional and pleasant meeting with me. He explained exactly what procedure he was going to adopt and was most reassuring. Following the procedure he made a pleasant bedside visit.
