Patient reviews Mr Yousri Afifi
My wife has stage 4 endometriosis, we went to mr Afifi to have excision surgery.
After the surgery he was extremely confident it was all done and removed. Less than a year later my wife is in debilitating pain.
We went to London for another opinion and found out masses were missed and the area Mr Afifi worked on was in there words “obliterated”.
He bit off more than he could chew and did not want to admit it. The last meeting we had with Mr Afifi was spent with him on his phone or dealing with another patient, not us! The people who paid to have his “expertise”.
Please think carefully using this “specialist” if you have a advanced case I recommend getting another opion.

Mr Afifi is a very talented surgeons. He is extremely caring and listened throughout both of my consultations to my problems. He offered two different solutions and said that he could support me either way with my decision.
