The care I received from Mr von Widekind was second to none from beginning to end. He explained everything clearly both before and after my operation so that I was never in any doubt about what to expect. Mr von Widekind is a superb gynaecologist and I would thoroughly recommend him. I would also like to thank his PA Sue for her kind, efficient manner during my experience.

At the time as a young 21 year old woman, going to a gynaecologist after years of neglect from doctors. I was extremely anxious and worried. However, I had nothing to be worried about. Mr Von Widekind is has been and continues to be professional, reliable and excellent at what he does but most importantly made me feel safe. I have come a long way from two ovarian cysts and endometriosis to now going for my check up and my progress has been ‘remarkable.’ As a woman, this area of our biology can be extremely worrying when we have these issues - especially at a young age. However, I would hands down recommend him to any woman of any age. THANK YOU SO MUCH. YOU HAVE CHANGED MY LIFE🌟

Excellent from start to finish, he is so knowledgeable, listens to my questions and explains clearly. He carried out the operation with such skill I had hardly any downtime, I healed so quickly. No problems at all. I feel better than I have felt for years. The whole experience with Mr Von Widekind has been faultless. Thank you!
