Mr Monkhouse removed my galll bladder at Spire Gatwick Park hospital in December 2020 From the outset of the first virtual appointment with Mr Monkhouse I found his quiet confidence very reassuring. He put me at ease, was familiar with the background information, listened to my personal account carefully and then outlined the way forward. His expectation of what needed doing was clear and he explained gave a balanced view of benefits and risks of surgery. He was very considerate of my needs regarding the timing of the surgery and at all times came across as a kind and caring person, concerned about the whole person, not just the surgery and with a quiet confidence in his ability to do a good job. I was justifiably confident in his ability as a surgeon and the healing process has gone very well. As well as following up in hospital, he emailed me twice at home to make sure my recovery was going well and was happy for me to contact him should I need to. There was a scheduled Zoom meeting twelve days later to check on my progress. I would feel fully justified in recommending him to anyone needing a surgeon in his area of expertise. C. M.
