Vass is exceptional. I felt fully informed throughout and he responded very quickly to me about anything that arose after the operation (arterial bypass). He works closely with a colleague, Pranav Somaiya, who is also very good. Both thoroughly recommended!

Prof Vassilis is highly skilled in his profession. We underwent an initial thorough consultant and thereafter an ultra scan to determine the severity of my DVT (blood clot) plus course of action. Highly recommended 10/10

I had a hernia repair carried out by Prof H. He’s been very professional and kind throughout the process, from first consultation to post operation. He is very competent and explains all details. I am really pleased with the outcome and will not hesitate to recommend him.
