Reviews
Mr Geoghegan listened to my symptoms and gave me a detailed description of the options available to me including the surgery for which I opted. He fully explained the procedure and the expected recovery timescale and the risks involved. He has an open and warm manner and I felt able to ask any questions or concerns I had.
I would have no hesitation consulting him again.
Knows what he is doing!
From the outset I found Mr Geoghegan to be very approachable. He made me feel relaxed and he listened to everything I had to say. Whilst using medical terms he also explained exactly what these meant so I had a clear understanding of my prognosis.
Before, during and after surgery he made sure I understood exactly what was happening and after discharge he was available to speak with when I rang with a query.
Whilst I am now discharged from his care, Mr Geoghegan advised that should I have any issues I am able to call and speak with him.
I would have no hesitate to recommending Mr Geoghegan.
Referred as an NHS patient. From 1st consultation to follow up post surgery, 3 months later, consultation, surgery, physio etc has been truly outstanding. I cannot recommend Mr Geoghan and the team supporting him enough.
From start to finish my care has been fantastic. This was my first ever operation and Mr Geoghegan made me feel completely at ease. The procedure was done very quickly with no fuss. Absolutely brilliant
