Mr Rao was excellent. I found him to be professional, friendly and efficient. Surgery has been a success and scar is hardly noticeable. Did have a non surgical issue regarding my hospital discharge resulting in me being re-admitted overnight.

I saw Mr. Rao for a hernia op. I favoured 'key hole' surgery and he was able to do that. From the initial consultation I had confidence in him, his calm manner with just the right amount of gentle humour helped me feel relaxed about the operation.

I am so pleased that I chose to go on this journey with Mr Rao. He was incredibly friendly and informative from out first appointment. I had some non-surgical complications post-op and Mr Rao was constantly monitoring me and making decisions to treat me.
