Reviews
Dr. Sanjay Varma is the quintessential doctor / surgeon that every one dreams of and we are extremely grateful for the care received. Especially as we've had some previous failings in the past from other consultants.
Ever since Dr. Varma handled my son's case he built trust with us and shared with us immense empathy and compassion.
Dr Varma has always kept us informed and advised on the case. As parents we have found Dr Varma to be very proficient, calm and approachable, and his excellent ability to communicate in simple terms very helpful.
We believe Dr Varma is an asset and thank him for all the good care and wish him all the very best.
Mr Verma took the time to listen to my concerns and explained everything to me throughout the consultation and the procedure. Very friendly and caring nature with an excellent ‘bedside manner’. Very reassuring of my concerns and involved me in agreeing my management plan. Very clear communication and follow-up advice. Overall an excellent consultation experience.
Excellent surgeon. Diagnosed and repaired a very persistent recurrent cholesteatoma. Kind, compassionate and respectful throughout.
I couldn't recommend Mr Verma enough, a lovely and reassuring guy who listened throughout and explained everything clearly and concisely as we went through the process of consultations and surgery, and put me completely at ease. Felt in extremely safe hands and pleased with results, would insist on using him again if I was to require any further ENT care
The level of professionalism and the level of care when under a consultation whit Mr Verma are very high, giving you the feeling that you are in very good and safe hands, have to admit I on my last visit I called Mr Verma a very good family member.
Thank you for all you done and still doing for me!!!!!
