At our first appointment, Mr Bhat was kind and attentive, explaining my condition clearly and outlining my treatment options in such a way that I was able to make an informed decision feeling that it was the right choice to make. The surgery went well, I had every confidence in Mr Bhat's skills, and felt very well cared for as he also has an excellent "bedside manner", again being attentive and caring. I feel very fortunate to have been under his care and recommend him highly.

Not wanting me to wait until the new year to help me we had our initial consultation by Zoom on the 22nd Dec. During and after our call Mr Bhat filled me with confidence as he came across as knowing exactly what he was talking about with the exact amount of care and clear information. Expecting to wait until Jan I was contacted on the very next day to arrange an appointment in Radiology for early Jan. This could even have been on the 3rd but because we were on holiday it is scheduled for today 10th Jan. This treatment is ongoing so will update as it proceeds.
