Mr Kerwat is a genuinely nice person, his bedside manner is 1st class, I had a Hernia operation performed by him and I didn't need to take any pain medication afterwards. I would definitely recommend him.

I would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Mr. Kerwat. Choosing him as my consultant for the laparoscopic removal of my gallbladder due to gallstones was the best decision I could have made. I had been struggling with a severely inflamed gallbladder for over a year, including during my pregnancy. Having never undergone surgery before, I was understandably anxious about addressing this issue. However, during my first consultation with Mr. Kerwat, he was calm, friendly, and extremely informative, providing me with all the necessary details to make an informed decision. I decided to proceed with the procedure and have not regretted it for a moment. Mr. Kerwat ensured that all my concerns were addressed during follow-up appointments. I feel so much better now, and my eating habits have significantly improved thanks to his advice. My incisions have healed beautifully, and I’m amazed at how invisible the scars are, especially as I was very conscious about this. I highly recommend Mr. Kerwat’s expertise. Thank you so much for your exceptional care and attention!
