Mr Gavin Robertson

Mr Robertson was very professional, informative and friendly. From the first consultation to the the final review after my operation he was very helpful and put any concerns at ease. I would highly recommend him as you'll be in very safe and experienced hands!

Mr Gavin Robinson carried out my laparoscopic bilateral inguinal hernia repairs, at the end of April, at the Spire Hospital, Leicester. I decided to self-fund the operation as, otherwise, I would have had a nine-month wait. At the initial consultation, Gavin examined me and confirmed the initial diagnosis, explained the laparoscopic process and answered my questions. He was reassuring and very easy to talk to. Both Gavin and the anesthetist saw me before the operation and were both very reassuring. The possible problems were explained (and their probability) and the temporary after effects and recovery times were discussed. I went to sleep broken and awakened mended. Gavin visited me shortly after I had returned to my room, at the hospital, to let me know all had gone well and to see how I was feeling before I was allowed home. I had a little pain and discomfort for the two days, following the operation, for which I took paracetamol. After that, each day showed a noticeable improvement. At my post-op consultation, I was able to ask a few more questions (I’d watched the operation - TAPP repair - on YouTube) and Gavin ‘filled in the gaps’. He was, again, very reassuring and it’s nice to know that my groin is stronger than it has ever been. I’ve delayed this review until now, six weeks after the operation, as I wanted to wait until I felt completely back to normal. I suspect this would have been sooner, had I been younger but things tend to take longer to heal now that I’m over 70. Let me conclude by saying that if you ever need a surgeon to carry out a laparoscopic hernia repair, you could put your faith in Gavin Robertson to do a great job.
