Got recovered from prosthitiasis. Although nature of it itself repeat infection got swift appointments and treatment. Happy all worked out well. Struggled 3 months first having many trips to GP without good action course. Once diagnosed, recieved swift treatment and quick appointments.
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!
Excellent and empathetic advice and guidance throughout the process combined with excellent surgical skill and follow up
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.
I was very pleased with the treatment I received. My questions were answered and I'm pleased with the outcome.
Very thorough and ensured I knew the implications of the explanations
Mr Datta arranged a CT scan and clearly explained the origin of my symptoms and future care. I was much reassured.
Mr Datta was very reassuring and explained everything about the operation and recovery period very clearly, giving me confidence to go ahead with the procedure. I am very pleased with the outcome of my operation. and I can say that Mr Datta has given me my normal life back. Thank You again
