I had a recent operation on my hand performed by Mr Bhat for a Trigger Finger and Carpal Tunnel. Mr Bhat and all the nurses at Gatwick Spire were extremely kind and Caring and put me at ease instantly I entered the hospital.
I was a day case and was only at the hospital for 3 hours.
The operation has been a complete success and I am extremely grateful to Mr Bhat as I am now out of constant pain during the night.
An excellent surgeon.

I was advised to have a cyst removed from my wrist and was referred to MR Bhat. From the very first consultation, I was put at ease straight away and had full confidence in him. The operation went perfectly and I am left with a very neat scar with great motion in my wrist even after 1 day. I would highly recommend him. Thank you!

Appointment was 50 minutes plus late. However, felt at ease with Mr Bhat and was dealt with in an efficient manner.

Extremely sorry that I kept you waiting. I'll try not to do that again. I'd hate it if I was kept waiting.

I found Mr Bhat very helpful, understanding and informative with a pleasant manner.
It was comforting to feel like a human being and not just a number.
