Mr Kumar looked after me as a patient with outmost professionality and friendly care throughout the process of my surgery. He explained every step of the intervention, answered patiently every question I had and followed up on my well being after surgery.

I had an excellent experience with Mr Sacheen Kumar as part of a coordinated operation involving three surgeons all completing separate procedures. From the outset, he was highly professional, approachable, and reassuring. He took the time to provide a clear and detailed overview of the procedure he would be performing and patiently answered my long list of questions without ever making me feel rushed. What truly stood out was his commitment to patient care. Mr Kumar went above and beyond to align his schedule with the other two surgeons, working late into the evening, to ensure the operation could proceed as planned. Despite heading off on holiday shortly afterwards, he still made the effort to visit me post the operation over the weekend. This level of dedication and professionalism was greatly appreciated and made a significant difference to my overall experience. I would highly recommend Mr Kumar.

Early in my diagnosis, I was advised that I would require radical surgery and that it was essential to have a surgeon I could trust implicitly. I was fortunate to find Mr Kumar, who proved from the very beginning to be exactly that person. His approach is both highly professional and reassuringly personal, and his ability to explain complex issues in a clear and understandable way has been invaluable. Working alongside an exceptional team, he has provided a level of care that far exceeded my expectations. Mr Kumar is truly an extraordinary man.

Sacheen was very polite. More importantly, given the nature of my issues, he instilled confidence in me that I was in safe hands. And so it proved to be. Procedure carried out efficiently, all as he said, and after care / follow-up consultation excellent and informative.
