Explanation

Very happy with the prostate procedure. Mr Iacovu’s surgery exceeded all my expectations. The process was fully and clearly explained throughout, with appropriate expectations given professionally and sensitively. My only minor criticism is that at times Mr Iacovu seemed very busy, giving the impression that he was unable to spend much time with each patient.

My second procedure from him. Wouldn’t wish to go to anyone else for treatment in this specialised field. I trust him implicitly - straight talker, a super-skilled practitioner - and modest too.
