I have been being under the care of Professor Mokbel for the past few years after he performed a lumpectomy surgery, which went smoothly and without any complications. I couldn't be more grateful to him! From the initial consultation to the post-operative care, Professor Mokbel’s level of professionalism and attentiveness truly puts me at ease. Professor Mokbel takes the time to thoroughly explain every aspect of my treatment, ensuring that I am always well-informed and comfortable every step of the way. He communicates complex medical information in a clear and understandable manner and takes the time to address any concerns or questions I might have. I am really grateful for his dedication and professionalism and I couldn’t recommend him highly enough.
