Although I needed only minor surgery this was my first operation, at the age of 53, so I was naturally a little apprehensive. When I left the consultation with Mr Jethwa, however, I was totally at ease and confident that the procedure would be carried out in a professional manner by a surgeon who knew exactly what was needed and was very knowledgeable about not only the treatment he had recommended to me but also the recovery time and after-effects. I felt this way because Mr Jethwa explained simply and clearly my condition, the available options and his preferred procedure, even showing me a video clip of a similar operation he had carried out previously (not obligatory, by the way). All my questions were answered and I was given all the information I needed to ultimately decide to follow Mr Jethwa's recommended treatment. The operation and recovery happened exactly as it had been described to me and, although I can think of better ways to spend a Thursday afternoon, I am still amazed six months on from the op how little impact it had on my life (I was back in the gym within three weeks). Mr Jethwa also replied promptly to a question I asked via email several weeks after the operation. It was reassuring to experience my first (and all being well only) surgery in such a professional yet caring manner and I have no hesitation in recommending Mr Jethwa. Should the need ever arise, he would certainly be the surgeon I would be asking for.
