Mr Sam Datta's care was exceptional - he explained everything about the procedure in LAYMAN'S TERMS making it so easy to understand. He made a very traumatic experience much easier to bear!!! His after care was absolutely BRILLIANT I was amazed that he visited me after the operation before he went home. I would have no hesitation in recommending Mr Datta for his outstanding skill and care. Cannot praise him enough!

Mr Datta explained everything clearly without frills and I felt it was more of a converstaion than a simple consultancy. Any questons I had were answered fully and in detail. Mr Datta has what seems to me to be an open and honest/friendly approach which I appreciated. He is good at putting us at ease as well as managing expectations realistically. He was happy to answer any questionsn I or my wife had. We were not kept waiting more than a few minutes from our appointment time.
