So grateful for a fantastic result following septorhinoplasty after damage to my nose. I immediately felt at ease with Mr Chummun and confident with the planned surgery; the procedure, recovery and outcome were clearly explained . Excellent level of care at the Nuffield.

Dr Chummun did a great job of my rhinoplasty and I’m so pleased with the results three months on. Highly professional and made me feel at ease during every stage. I had some issues with the hospital’s communication which were completely out of his control but cannot fault him!
