I was recommended Mr Sankaraneni by other Rhinologists as I had had previous similar procedures which were successful for only short periods of time. I found Mr Sankaraneni very helpful and very professional and would have no hesitation in recommending him to other patients with similar problems.

My GP recommended Mr Sunkaranini as she had seen his work and was impressed. My nose was damaged in a fall and Mr S listened carefully and established my concerns and expectations. He did not rush me and we discussed options. He was very knowledgable and could see more work was required than I realised. In the end I was happy to proceed on a do what is needed basis as I trusted his judgement and it turned out to be a four hour operation. I took his advice to stay in over night which was certainly needed. I cannot say I have been in pain although uncomfortable, paracetamol was sufficient and the bruising was not as bad as I expected. At all times Mr S has been reassuring and highly professional. I am very happy with the care have received.

Mr Sunkaraneni is a great doctor. I healed very quickly after an operation I had and he is very reassuring. I would definitely go straight back to Mr Sunkaraneni if the need arose.

Mr Sunkaraneni was recommended to me via another consultant who felt he could not help myou case fully. My first impressions of Dr Sunkaraneni after my first consultation was that he was very approachable, friendly and made me feel at ease. He discussed all my options and how each procedure would be completed and what he thought was the most suitable choice was for me. I liked that he asked me what I thought and he did not talk down to me at all. I have been fortunate enough to to use his services through my medical insurance and the whole process has been brilliant. His secretary keeps you informed and is always at hand for any queries. My surgery has just been completed and I am amazed at the results, especially the lack of bruising and very little pain considering. Very professional.

Fantastic experience. Mr Sunkaraneni, his secretary Tanya and the hospital were amazing. All the way through from being administered to the hospital to my follow up appointments Mr Sunkaraneni, everything went smoothly and I now have a much better quality of life. Would recommend to all!
