This whole team has restored my faith in the medical profession. Lauren is just one of the kindest, most efficient PA’s that I’ve ever come across. And Mr Patel is one of a kind, his knowledge blows my mind. This team has given me my smile back when no one else would listen.

I cannot rate highly enough the whole experience of being referred to Mr Patel. He is calm and clear and puts you at such ease. I knew I was literally in safe hands and I am so grateful. The only comment I have is that I would have liked a follow up appointment which was missed.
