Testimonials

“I started to notice symptoms in July 2015, when I suffered a torn retina. After laser surgery, I was left with a very large floater which moved, like an opaque blob which filled my vision as it floated around my right eye. After a year, I decided I couldn't cope any more. It was impacting my quality of life and making everyday tasks difficult or impossible; such as driving, using a computer, watching TV and cooking. At this point, we decided to visit Spire Little Aston and make use of our private healthcare. I had an initial consultation with Mr Kam Balaggan, who explained thoroughly the options, the associated risks and his particular skill set and statistics. He put me totally at ease, answered any and all concerns we had and enabled me to make a decision, happily, immediately. This was followed by the operation itself. I opted to have only local anaesthesia, partially under his advice. I was looked after very well by everyone. The operation itself only took around half an hour but from entering theatre to leaving was probably around an hour. The operation was not painful, if unpleasant. I would undergo the same operation by the same surgeon again willingly, if/when necessary. The change of vision in my right eye is enormous, going from constantly slightly squinting and blinking away a huge floater, I now have wonderful sharp and unobscured vision in that eye. It has made a huge difference to me. I would say that most people have commented that they couldn't have this operation under local anaesthesia as they couldn't cope with seeing everything going on. In fact, you see nothing other than a bright light to start with and then nothing at all. Recovery was straightforward, after about two weeks I was pretty much back to normal. Mr Balaggan has been accessible, friendly, reassuring and empathetic. I could not be happier with the results or with my surgeon.”

“I have been monitored for my glaucoma for some time, initially by Miss Hope Ross and more recently by Mr Ressiniotis. In November 2016, Mr Ressiniotis performed a trabeculectomy operation on my right eye. I received excellent care from the consultant and hospital, with very good follow up care too. I had no pain or complications, it is a complete success. I would highly recommend the consultant and hospital.”

“When I decided that I was going to have a Full Tummy Tuck and Liposuction, I was so excited and at the same time scared. Then I was lucky enough, following lots of research, to find and meet Mr Lahiri. He explained what the operation involved and discussed what results to expect. He answered all My questions and made me feel totally at ease. He was always available to help me with any queries, including advice out of hours via e-mail. He made My operation very personal and the after care was fantastic. He was very professional. I would recommend this operation and Plastic Surgeon, Anindya Lahiri, to anyone. I'm 100% happy with my results and the care that I received throughout the whole procedure.... Thank you Mr Lahiri.”

“Very professional, polite, friendly, patient - always explained everything in details. He was also very frank and honest, told me what he could and could not do. No false promises.”

“From the initial consultation right through to follow up appointments, Mr Lahiri has always been very helpful, friendly and professional. He made me feel very comfortable to ask any questions I may have had and he took the time to really listen and understand the outcome I was looking for. He would reply very quickly to any emails I would send and explained everything in regards to the procedure clearly and in depth; I think this is why I felt so confident in his ability. A fantastic surgeon.”

“Dr Lahiri was by far the best consultant I have seen, he has given me what I thought I could not have. He also reassured me all the way through, he made me feel so comfortable the usual nerves you have towards any operation were not there. Most considerate and lovely consultant. He made my dreams come true.”

“The whole process from consultation to operation was fantastic. The care all the way through was excellent.”
