I came across Mr Ballaro by chance as the hospital of my original consultant could not accommodate me, and I'm very happy that I did! I saw him on account of advanced BPH (I'm 62 years old and was catheterised as I could not pee).
Mr Ballaro explained the details and benefits of HoLEP surgery very clearly and I was admitted within 2 weeks. The procedure was very successful and he followed up on the day and day after, explaining exactly what I would experience. My recovery has been very quick and I can now pee like a fireman - I feel as though I am back to normal life! I've just had my 2-week follow-up consultation and everything seems to be going according to plan. Thank you, you've been amazing, and I could not recommend you highly enough!! :-)

After having had much messing around with enlarged prostate my problem eventually came to the attention of Mr. Ballaro. He talked sense from the moment I walked in the door of his consulting room and agreed that what was needed was a prostate reduction. No more messing around trying different drugs which had little or no effect.
I left the consulting room feeling very happy. Then the problems started. The problems were not with Mr. Ballaro but with the admin people in the hospital. I chased for several months to get an appointment for the operation. Got lots of promises but no action.
Finally I did get a date and I arrived in the hospital on the appointed day. At the pre op assessment the nurse had told me that I would likely be in the hospital for three or four days after the operation. A friend who had had the TURP procedure a while before told me the same thing.
However Mr. Ballaro was using the HOLEP procedure. He had told me that he hoped to use it but it was early days for it in that hospital. As it worked out he used it. As I said I arrived at the hospital in the morning and was operated on in the early afternoon. Someone did say to me that I might be going home the next day but I thought that they were talking rubbish. About six in the morning someone removed the catheter. Mr. Ballaro seemed to have a few students who came along to see how I was doing and to tell me how successful the operation had been.
I was discharged shortly after lunchtime. That was on a Monday. By Thursday afternoon I was at a Yoga class. It's a very gentle Yoga class but still a Yoga class. By Friday morning I was happy to drive to the supermarket.
Overall I can't speak too highly about Mr. Ballaro. He is someone who is decisive enough to decide what needs to be done and has the skills to do an excellent job.
About six months later I was heading from Ilford to the docks at Liverpool. The traffic was atrocious. Five and a half hours for what should have been a four hour journey. I didn't need to stop for the bathroom along the way. Definitely a great success,

I had a lot of difficulty passing water and would need to pee regularly throughout the day and night. I now readily empty my bladder and do not have visit the toilet before I start a journey or as soon as I arrive at my destination. I longer have to get up 3 -4 times a night.

Went to see Dr Ballaro today he was very professional and kind sent me for a scan straight away which didn't take long at all. Came back and was seen immediately with positive results. Then gave me advice on how to prevent further problems.

I found Mr Ballaro to be very caring and he listens to you which puts you at ease - he talks to you not at you.
My surgery went well and I have had a very good outcome. I would recommend him to friends and family if they needed a urologist.

Mr Ballaro was the first doctor to diagnose my UPJ obstruction. He could tell I was nervous getting the results of a CT scan and explained them to me patiently. He also suggested follow up tests and the process from diagnosis to treatment if I elected to have it. He has gone above and beyond to help me, researching surgeons for me and giving me advice. I ask a lot of questions but he has never made me feel annoying. He’s just a very patient, trustworthy and kind man and an incredibly safe pair of hands as a doctor.

Mr Ballaro and the staff at Nuffield Brentwood provided excellent care and support throughout my time with them. I am very pleased with the results of Mr Ballaro's surgery and I have recovered fully, quickly, and without issue. Thank you.

Mr Ballaro helped me with a kidney stone removal and I couldn’t be more happier for getting my life back. I had the surgery at St John & St Elizabeth hospital and the staff there were friendly and helpful. I definitely recommend him if you need a precise and experienced urologist

I recently visited Dr. Ballaro, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. He was attentive, professional, and truly listened to my concerns. He took the time to explain everything in detail, ensuring I fully understood my options and felt comfortable.
