Mr Jacob was exemplary from start to finish from my initial consultation all the way through to surgery and final consultations.

Explanation

I cannot speak highly enough about Mr Jacob. Yesterday I had surgery on a pharyngeal pouch, which is like a hernia on the oesophagus. It is a rare condition and not many surgeons perform this very delicate operation. He has a professional and kindly manner. He has patience and spares time for explanations and questions. He is reassuring and above all extremely skilled. He explained that there were a few risks to my surgery but I felt complete trust in him. His colleagues couldn’t praise him enough as can’t I ! Thank You, Mr Jacob

Very thorough examination and test to diagnose my problem. Everything was clearly explained and my problem was promptly treated. Further tests and follow-up appointments were efficiently organised. All post appointment letters were sent to me the day after the appointment, and were clear and very well written. Mr Jacob was extremely personable as well as clearly an expert in his field. I felt confident that I was in very safe hands. Over all I was extremely impressed and would not hesitate to recommend Mr Jacob to others.
