Miss Kaushik is lovely, friendly and explained everything clearly to me. Moin Hoosein and assistant Charlotte were amazing.
I had an excellent experience with Miss Kaushik. From the moment I had my initial consultation, Miss Kaushik and her assistant were warm, welcoming, and incredibly professional. I felt really comfortable with Miss Kaushik and trusted her and the staff to look after me. Miss Kaushik listened carefully to me and explained everything clearly in the lead up to my operation. She did everything I asked for and more and I would highly recommend her services and Nuffield health Leicester.
I chose to have a breast reduction with Miss Kaushik. From start to finish I cannot fault a single step of my journey. During my consultation I felt listened to and really appreciated the kindness I was shown. Everything was explained clearly to me and I left the appointment feeling I was able to make a fully informed decision to go ahead with the surgery. The surgery itself went without any complications as did my healing. Should there have been any issues I had the contact details for Miss Kaushik and the hospital ward. I am now nearly 4 weeks post operative and I am really pleased with my results. Miss Kaushik has achieved exactly what I asked for and has kept me in proportion with the rest of my body. I couldn’t have asked for anymore. Thank you.
Miss Kaushik was warm and reassuring. She made me feel very at ease. I appreciated her tone and professional manner
I had a follow up appointment today after surgery. I was given very good news and have been discharged. Miss Kaushik delivered this news with great humanity, care and compassion.
Thank you for your kind words
