I was very fortunate to have Mr Moawad as my Surgeon, from the moment we met I was shown respect, kindness and treated as if I was his only patient. Every aspect of my condition, diagnosis and treatment was explained in great detail. Form my very first appointment I felt totally at ease and very reassured that I was in the right hands. Mr Moawad professionalism was very apparent at all times yet there was always an genuine level of care, consideration and understanding shown towards me. Every member of the surgical team was a pleasure to meet and each one also went out of their way to make me feel at ease. I have the deepest respect for Mr Moawad and will always be very grateful.

My varicose vein treatment went like clockwork. I had the operation, no pain afterwards, removed the bandages as directed, took exercise as suggested, and the healing went as predicted. I have no after effects. Mr Moawad's explanations were clear and concise. I think he or the hospital might have explained to me beforehand that I would have lumps (ie blood clots) in the leg - it caused me a little concern for a while but I had a clean bill of health at the post-op examination. Thank you for the treatment.

Mr Moawad was very kind to me during my visit at St Peters Hospital. He treated my painful varicose veins on both legs. His manner was excellent, both in explaining the procedure and making me feel at ease with his sense of humour. He took great care during the procedure and seemed very thorough. Allowing me to do this under local anaesthetic rather than general, also helped my recovery time. Many thanks

Mr Moawad was highly professional in both his initial consultations, pre-surgery discussion and follow up appointment. He clearly explained the issues associated with the veins in my leg (based on the ultrasound test results) and why he felt that surgery was the right option for me. He made it clear that this being non-urgent it was my choice as to if and when I wanted the surgery. I went ahead based on the pain in my leg and the knowledge that it wouldn't clear up without intervention from the discussions with Mr Moawad - if I didn't trust him I would have looked elsewhere for a surgeon but I had no hesitation in trusting him.

He is a very nice gentleman, listening and understanding my poor speaking English. He gave me all the assurance I needed to feel comfortable to have the operation.
