Mr Verma from first walking into his surgery puts his patients at ease, a friendly and confident consultant. A few years ago he operated on my ears and after care is just as important as the actual operation, I would recommend Mr Verma to anyone.

Mr Verma explained the procedure involved in the treatment of the ongoing conditions of the patient. Due to the current situation and the constraints he gave me a realistic timeframe of when the patient would be seen next.

I experienced Mr Sanjay Verma to be an excellent doctor of the highest standard. He was kind, understanding and knowledgeable during all of my consultations with him. I travelled from Surrey to Leeds to be treated by him because he came highly recommended. I suffered from tonsil stones and reoccurring tonsilitis, something that a number of other ENT's that I had seen could not see or understand. It took Mr Verma 30 seconds of looking at my throat to tell me that they had crypts in them and that that that was why they were causing me so much trouble. I chose Mr Verma because of his skill with Coblation Tonsillectomy, a technique that I had read about as being an effective method to remove tonsils. On the day of the surgery, he was calming and reassuring that he knew exactly what he was doing. The surgery went smoothly and my recovery on the site had no complications and healed within 2 weeks. I would absolutely recommend Mr Verma for any ENT issues, not only for his genuine expertise in ENT problems but for his warm and empathetic manner.
