I have seen a number of doctors, surgeons, nurses and psychiatrists in my time, but even the ones whom I have met with many times and have gotten to know very well haven't even come close to the level of care that Mr Kneeshaw has provided me with. For five years, I was incredibly self-conscious about a part of my physical appearance that I couldn't change without surgery. It caused immense anxiety on an ongoing basis and it was leaving me incredibly ill as a result. I was referred to Mr Kneeshaw to have the issue addressed and although I had read many reviews of his work before my appointment, I was still relatively wary due to the sensitivity of my concerns and the fact that I was having to travel such a distance for my consultation. Never in my life have I been so pleasantly surprised by an experience. Not only did he give off immediate warm and compassionate vibes, but this was followed right the way through the consultation. He was highly sensitive towards my needs, always making sure to be gentle, listen very carefully to all of my concerns, and checking that everything was alright before doing it. He mapped out my surgery for me right away and gave me an idea of the outcome, and even managed to keep up with my mother's insistent questions from the sidelines. His level of understanding surpasses that of mere professionalism and is much more like the understanding between two individuals who are striving for a mutual outcome. When it actually came to the day of my surgery, he did what he could to reassure me, went through every single step and introduced me to his surgeon team so that I knew who would be taking care of me. My mother also informed me that he visited shortly after I was taken back to my room post-surgery to check that everything was running smoothly, although I was too heavily influenced by the anaesthetic still by that point to remember this. The following morning, he even returned to my bedside to ensure that I was okay and recovering, which I really appreciated. More recently, we had a check-up to make sure that my scars are healing well. As expected, I'll need a bit of corrective surgery around the ends of the scars, but Mr Kneeshaw informed me that he was happy to sort that out within the next few months so that it looks like something that would make me proud and confident. I can't even think of a single fault that was made along the way, and I really appreciate everything he has done to help me. It's impossible to put into words how much he cares for his patients and goes that extra mile to make sure that everything is how his patients envision their outcome.
