Doctor Thakkar excellent in all respects. Lower rating for other staff/wait time etc reflecting fact we were sent to wrong bulding initially and there was a bit of confusion whilst working out where to send us

Our baby saw Dr Thakkar for a inguinal hernia repair. We were really impressed with him and felt he was in good hands. Dr Thakkar had a really approachable but professional manner which we appreciated. We’d highly recommend him.
