I have recently had surgery, performed by Paul Kirkland, to remove a rogue parathyroid gland. He has been helpful, informative and professional throughout as has Rebecca, his secretary and I can thoroughly recommend him. In all honesty I can say that he has given me my life back again.

From my very first appointment I was impressed by Mr Kirkland’s care, thoughtfulness, diagnostic accuracy and reassurance. Even after my operation he continued to impress and showed his willingness to ‘go the extra mile’ to ensure a rapid post operative recovery.
