Excellent surgeon. Mr Yassa is a very skilled surgeon and provides fantastic care for his patients. He is a great teacher and tutor. I have been lucky enough to do a taster week with Mr Yassa in the NHS hospital, Manchester university Foundation trust and learnt a lot from this.

I have recently seen Mr Yassa for my hip replacement. We went through everything thoroughly. He then clearly explained my options and the positives and risks of each. Mr Yassa is kind, professional and extremely good at what he does. Thank you for changing my life.
