I was treated for a hernia at Spires Hospital Leicester. From the initial consultation, through the operation and aftercare I cannot more highly recommend the treatment I received. I was advised of the work that would be carried out, and any associated risk (minimal). The only suggestion I would make and this is not a reflection on Mr Robertson in any way, is that the pain killers given for use afterwards were very effective but I wasn't advised that they may cause constipation (although this was written as a possible side effect in the leaflet) maybe could have been explained, but I suppose they effect different people in different ways. Apart from that it all went very well.

I received surgery for a gallbladder removal. From the initial consulatation, all trough surgery to the final consulatation, the level of care Gavin has given is outstanding. He made my stay in hospital comfortable and explained every aspect of what was being done. Could honestly not recommend anyone higher than Gavin and anyone who is being seen by him, you have nothing at all to worry about.

Relaxed informative attitude from initial consultation, pre operation meeting and post operative care. All possible problems were carefully outlined (although most did not occur) leaving one with absolute confidence in the outcome of the operation. A very professional and inspiring surgeon.
