Mr Gavin Robertson

Written by a patient at The Leicester Nuffield Hospital

Mr Gavin Robertson was a doctor we first met in the latter half of 2016 when he performed a successful hernia operation on my husband. On meeting him for the first time his calm, caring and reassuring manner put us at ease straight away. So when l became very poorly he was our first choice. We trusted in his ability to put his patients welfare as a priority. I would have no hesitation recommending him to anyone who may need his expertise in the future.

I would highly recommend Mr ROBERTSON. Following a problem with an infected and inflamed gallbladder, the process for removal was made simple, straightforward and quick by Mr ROBERTSON. He listened to me explain my condition, he was understanding and talked through the options and the risks. On the day of surgery, he was calm and reassuring and during the followup/discharge meeting, he was very happy to answer questions and talked through what had happened and what I should expect. Despite the size of my gallbladder, the scars are very neat. Highly professional, polite and trustworthy.

I had two hernias that required surgery. Mr Robertson articulated the issue and procedure in plain english and made me feel part of the decision process. I also thought they way he took time to talk to me during the morning before the operation was calming and put me at ease. Many Thanks.

I can't speak highly enough of Mr Robertson. He carried out a laparoscopic hernia repair for me. Directly before the operation, I was extremely nervous, but he had a very calming influence on me by his reassuring, calming manner which helped to put me at ease and gave me great confidence that I was in great hands. He was very good at communicating and answering my questions patiently and thoroughly about the operation. I'm so happy and relieved that the operation has been a full success. Directly after the operation he again answered all of my questions and accurately told me what to expect for my recovery, which put my mind at rest. In the follow up appointments he patiently listened to my questions and explained about my recovery in reassuring and easy to understand terms. My recovery has proceeded according to his advice since then. In every respect I have had a brilliant experience under the care of Mr Robertson.

I had two hernias repaired by Dr Robertson, his explaination prior to the operation was very clear and concise, his presence just prior to the operation was very reassuring and the aftercare following the operation was excellent. I was able to return to normal activities (including playing golf) after 2 weeks. I cannot praise Mr Robertson, the Leicester Nuffield and the NHS enough, thank you all.
