Mr Irvail Satheesh Prabhu 2023-02-07 Person 5 5 0

The care I have received under Mr Prabhu was quite honestly outstanding. I recently had to have an apicoectomy to remove an infection above my front teeth/bridge. I was a bit nervous, although I did have to have some invasive work done ~30 years ago so wasn't terrified. My operation however turned out to be more of an experience than anything to worry about - I actually found it interesting! During my operation (local anaesthetic), I actually found myself quite relaxed (helped by being completely horizontal unlike a standard dentist's chair) - and modern anaesthetics are incredible (I am so glad I did not elect to have a general anaesthetic). Mr Prabhu is without a shadow of a doubt, the most gentle surgeon/doctor I have ever had to place my trust in. During my procedure, the theatre had a real air of calm with Mr Prabhu and three supporting medical specialists all worked as a close knit team. Mr Prabhu removed my infection and stitched up my gum (which really took no time at all) and I walked out of the hospital wondering why I had devoted even a single minute to worrying about my procedure. I did not have to use the pain killers I was given, as post-operative pain was minimal and my gum healed incredibly quickly. As a renowned oral surgeon, he can clearly deliver solutions for far more complicated conditions than my own simple infection, however what really stood out for me was the quiet, considered way he put me at my ease and turned an operation that initially made me nervous into an experience that I will never forget - for all the right reasons. So in summary, I can't recommend Mr Prabhu highly enough - a quiet, gentle, man who exudes confidence and calm, he is clearly a leader in his field and together with his team delivered an exemplary service.
