Explanation

My husband and I feel incredibly lucky to have been in the safe hands of Sam during what was quite a difficult and uncertain time for us. His calm and friendly approach immediately put us at ease and he gave so much time, care and attention to both us during our appointments and scans. During the surgical procedure, Sam found more problems than we had first anticipated and he was able to examine and treat these immediately. I can't pretend to know the ins and outs of the operation, but I do know that Sam is highly skilled, incredibly knowledgeable and humbly confident in his work. Sam gave us his word that he would do everything he could to give us the highest chance of conceiving and he 100% delivered on that. We will be forever grateful to Sam for all he has done for us. Thank you.
