Mr Bhat was very informative and I felt very reassured by what he told me. He is very approachable, considerate and someone who I could put my trust in. His explanation of my condition was very reassuring and put my mind at rest as to the solutions available to me. I would highly recommend his services.

Dear Mr Bhat, following my carpal tunnel & trigger finger procedure, I cannot thank you enough for your outstanding treatment, reassuring manner & great sense of humour .Together with your team ,Rosy & Lindsay I felt totally at ease having had everything explained prior, during & after my operation. I must also thank your medical secretary ,Eleanor, for her excellent support in sending all the relevant paperwork from my first consultation with you at Ashtead hospital to before my op at GatwickSpire. It was also comforting to know she was available to speak to by phone to answer any questions I had. 4 days on after my op I'm doing well & look forward to seeing you next week for my post op check.

Mr Bhat is an excellent consultant. He is very friendly and reassuring. I was given lots of information including a video which explained the procedure really well before my procedure and Mr Bhat also described in detail what would happen on the day so I was very clear on what to expect. He also has a great sense of humour which made me feel very relaxed. Both nurses, Zoe & Deborah assisted with the procedure and were also very good.
