People don't like to talk about bottom problems, they find it embarrassing. Mr Gurjar is easy to talk to, listened to me carefully and explained my options in detail.
The consultation was informative in a relaxed manner. I would 100% recommend
Mr Gurjar.

Very happy with the treatment received from Mr Gujar. For my procedure he explained what was happening and put me at ease.
