He was very helpful, kind and answered all questions that I asked him. During both operations, he put me at rest as he talked me through varIous sounds etc. I could not have been more at ease considering I was awake during both operations. The results are amazing and beyond my expectations. Mr Kashani, a very sincere thank you.
