Mr Rohatgi was polite and professional at all times. He explained the operation thoroughly and I felt reassured that I was in good hands (literally!). Mr Rohatgi was very pleasant and personable throughout my hospital experience.
Mr Rohatgi was very confident throughout. I understand that he has many experiences and has no doubt about what he does will improve eventually. For me who had never removed anything from my body with many allergies to many products, it would be nice to have more explanation of what might happen to your body after the operation qould be helpful.

Mr Rohatgi took time to thoroughly explain everything to me. He has always been approachable and helpful, and I was well informed and reassured both before and after my gallbladder removal surgery. I felt I was in safe hands throughout and would not hesitate to recommend him to other patients.
When first meeting Mr Rohatgi, he throughly explained the procedure. Explaining exactly how it will carried out. As well as explaining post op. This left me calm and confident with no worries. Once the procedure was carried. I was in very little pain with very little scarring. The whole experience was made less daunting by Mr Rohaghi’s professionalism.
I felt in capable hands and have had a good and speedy recovery. I would recommend highly
Mr Rohatgi put me, a very nervous patient’s mind at ease. From meeting him in clinic to having surgery I had complete confidence in his skill as an experienced surgeon. I cannot recommend Mr Rohatgi highly enough.
A wonderful experience with Dr Rohatgi during both consultations and the surgery. He was very friendly, efficient and patient when answering questions. He explained the gallbladder removal procedure in detail and reassured me throughout the entire treatment. He was readily available when needed. Highly recommend Dr Rohatgi for his services.
Excellent surgeon and mentor.
