I found the care and attention shown by Mr de’Ligouri Carino to be excellent. His calm and thorough manner in face to face consultations instilled confidence and reassurance throughout what was a difficult time, particularly in light of the prevailing Covid pandemic.

Mr Nicola De'Liguori Carino was the surgeon who carried out my triple hernia operation. I was very pleased with the treatment I received before and after the operation and found him to be a good listener and was very pleasant. I feel he has done a good job for me regarding the surgery and wish him all the best. Regards Michael Howarth.

In late January 2021 I underwent a laparoscopic repair for a recurrent inguinal hernia. Compared to the previous open surgery in 2016 ( by another surgeon ) my recovery has been much easier and less painful with less nerve damage. We chose Mr De'Liguori Carino after studying many Profiles and are very pleased with his capability, attitude and results. Many thanks to him, his anesthetist and team at The Highfield.

The first consultant I saw was Mr De'Liguori Carino. He provided me with a very careful explanation of the nature of the condition and treatment options. He was honest, understanding and very helpful. I then had a 6 month period of chemotherapy and radiotherapy following which I was again referred to Mr De'Ligouri Carino for possible irreversible electroporation (IRE) treatment. He saw me and very clearly carefully explained the procedure, what was known about its effectiveness, possible side effects and risks. It was a very sensitive and helpful consultation. I was admitted for the IRE treatment which was conducted so as to also permit other surgical procedures to take place if, on investigation, these were appropriate. In my case he was consequently able to perform a successful removal of a bile duct/pancreatic tumour. I was very, very fortunate to have been treated by Mr De’Ligouri Carino and to have received such high quality care from him. Even at the end of what must have been an exhausting day’s surgery (mine alone must have consumed several hours) he telephoned my family late in the evening to update them in detail on the outcome. We were all very grateful for his generosity with his time in doing this. Thank you very much for such excellent care and treatment.

I was fortunate enough to have Nicola as my surgeon when having my umbilical hernia repaired, this operation was carried out during the Covid pandemic and I can not praise Nicola and his team highly enough for the care I was given
