Excellent consultant. I feel very fortunate to have been referred to him. Very patient at trying to get to the root cause and understand the underlying issues - didn't feel rushed at all. Always happy to answer all the questions I have.

Highly professional, easy to talk with and clearly at the top of his discipline.

Dr Stephens answered all my questions comprehensively and in a manner that could be understood by a non medical specialist. He demonstrated empathy to me and was very happy to discuss my questions.

Very polite, professional and excellent bedside manner.

Calm and reassuring. I was confident he knew what he was talking about!

In April 2022 Roberto Casula repaired my mitral valve at the Wellington Hospital. Before I was anaesthetised I asked him to be sure to do « some Ferrari engineering in there if you are going into my heart! ». There is hardly a day that goes by when I do not think of him and his 100% successful operation. I will be ever grateful. In November (seven months after the operation), to regain my pilot’s licence, I got through the exercise ECG test (9 minutes to Bruce P rotocol level 4), but the CAA kept me on the ground until April 2023 before finally giving my licence back. To get through the test (I confess I failed it in October) I forced myself to go jogging every day for a month, working up from 1km to 5kms. With determination I succeeded. Later that month I was hiking and climbing looking at glaciers in Patagonia, one day hiking 23 Km and climbing 4000 feet. At the end of the 2023 year, I enjoyed several days of stag hunting on a horse (exhausting stuff!), and a week of testing skiing. In April 2023, I finally got back into the sport I really enjoy - aerobatics. I started off with an instructor just to make sure my heart would tolerate it. Both Mr Casula and Professor Tom Wong, my cardiologist, had said that, after a successful operation, pulling G would be fine from a cardiological point of view. I then did quite a lot of solo aerobatics in the summer of 2023, and I can confirm that both were absolutely right, to my intense delight! No adverse reactions at all from my heart! So I have fully regained my former lifestyle, for which I am eternally grateful. I am having a lot of fun and am in excellent health – at 73 years old, I seem in much better shape than most of my friends and contemporaries. All thanks to a remarkably successful minimally invasive operation. It was truly a great « Ferrari job »!

Dr Ramrakha listened to my concerns and answered my questions in a manner that I understood. He observed that my ankles were a little swollen. This was something that I had not mentioned.

Professional, very approachable, and good understandable explanation. In my treatment extremely succesful👍 I am very very happy and grateful! That he is in my life🎶

Dr Missouris has been absolutely amazing, he is one of those rare gems that you don't need to explain too much with, as he fully understands his field and is able to thoroughly investigate the cause of the issue. I have been with many Drs from different departments and by far Dr Missouris has been the best. You don't need to explain too much or go into great detail in order for him to understand. His experience speaks for itself and it has been an absolute pleasure being his patient. Thank you Dr for all your support and everything you did for me. Being of a different ethnicity one tends to feel prejudiced against but you made me feel comfortable and were professional throughout.
