I was referred by my NHS consultant to see Dr Ravi Barod on the NHS, however my circumstances changed and took a turn for the worse so I ended up going as a private patient. First and foremost, this man has not only saved my life physically but mentally too. I was in such a bad place prior to my surgery, in constant pain, living with a tube in my back and really mentally down. I knew Dr Barod was an amazing person from the first initial consultation, I felt listened to, understood and valued. At no point was I pushed to go private, in fact he went out of his way to try and get me seen quicker on the NHS but this wasn't possible. He reassured me that he would help, he explained everything in a way that was easy to understand, explained the risks but strangely I didn't feel scared, I felt confident in knowing he knew what he was talking about and was so certain. The morning of my operation was so smooth, operation went well but unfortunately I had a funny turn. Dr Barod stayed at the hospital until well after his shift ended and even come in especially early to see how I was, checking in constantly - amazing service. I have seen Dr Barod since my operation to have a small procedure and he was exactly the same, friendly, professional and compassionate. I am looking forward to my follow up to see just how successful the operation was. I want to say a massive thank you to Dr Barod, you have given me my life back. I highly highly highly recommend Dr Barod to anyone, you won't be disappointed. Thank you so much again! I'm eternally grateful.
