Mr Heasley is the perfect mix between being brilliant as a surgeon but equally brilliant with his approach and bedside manner. I have known my fair share of surgeons but with him you get excellent care and yet even if it has been a while since you have seen him in clinic it's like he saw you the week before. I wish many other surgeons and consultants were half as amazing as he is!!!!!
