I went to Professor Chatrath after I had experienced years of problems with my nose since I broke it in 2009, including my bodies overreaction to any powerful smell (hay fever and smoke) which made me spend summers in uncontrollable tears. I found that I was listened to, I had a full and through examination and a plan was put in place to try and resolve my symptoms, without the need for surgery in the first instance. The symptoms didn’t fully go, so in January 2023 I had a Septoplasty with clarifix. I felt Professor Chatrath took great care in explaining the surgery, and the recovery process and was very mindful of my recovery due to my Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. I came out of the surgery, and you could not tell I had any procedure done, using glue in my nasal cavity rather than splints made it a much better recovery and easier to manage my daily cleaning routine. I had two follow up visits post surgery due to my slow healing (from EDS) and each time I was examined with great care and was able to be reassured that my nose was healing in the right direction. I am now 7 months post operation and I can breathe so much better when exercising and the clarifix has reduced my overreaction to the outside factors and this is the first year I have not had to take antihistamines every day of the summer. It has completely changed my life and I am so grateful. Thank you.
