Dr Robertson removed my gall bladder using key hole surgery. The procedure was done at the Spire Hospital, Leicester. He listened to any concerns I had prior to the operation and put me at ease. I would highly recommend him if you are in need of his expertise, it didn't take me long to recover either.

Mr Robertson recently performed a double laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair for me at Nuffield Hospital and I would like to thank him and his colleagues at the hospital for their great care and professionalism. I found Mr Robertson was very easy to talk to and he listened to my concerns. He was very informative and I was very reassured by him throughout all stages of the process. The staff at the hospital were also very pleasant and helpful. The whole process from my initial consultation, my admission and surgery through to my post operative consultation was carried out very efficiently and professionally. I was delighted with the quality of the care and treatment I received and would highly recommend Mr Robertson.

Mr Robertson performed a laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair for me. Throughout both the pre and post operative consultations Mr Robertson was professional, caring and informative. The surgery was performed promptly on the day if admission, post surgery care was excellent and I was released the same day. Despite some discomfort for a few days I required almost no pain relief, the incisions healed very quickly and I was almost fully active including fitness training within 10 days. I am delighted by the quality of care and would highly recommend Mr Robertson for similar surgery. I hope that I will not need his services again, but should I, he and the Spire Hospital would be my first choice.

I chose Mr Robertson to complete a laparoscopic hernia repair procedure at Spire Hospital Leicester. The whole process was conducted professionally, efficiently and effectively in a timely manner. Mr Robertson took time to listen to my (few) concerns and addressed them fully and reassuringly. Although I am well past the time of life when cosmetic appearance is vitally important, the tiny incisions made in the procedure have healed completely with little or no scar visible. Asking Mr Robertson to undertake my hernia repair was one of the best decisions I have made more recently and I would frecommend him to anyone without a moments hesitation.

I recently had a number of small Gallstones and also my Gallbladder removed by Mr. Gavin Robertson at Nuffield Hospital in Lecis. I was extremely impressed by the Professionalism not only of Mr. Robertson but also his medical colleagues and several members of the Nuffield staff. I was quite apprehensive about having this operation as I like so many others do NOT like needles, however the reassurance and the confidence of the knowledge that Mr. Robertson etc demonstrated made me feel very at ease and more importantly safe in their hands. I have just completed my "Post" op assesment and thankfully on the road to recovery and free of pain. My sincere thanks to Mr. Robertson and his team for taking great care of me during my procedure and overnight stay at Nuffield. Tina Keoghan
