Dr Blackburn is a very knowledgeable and experienced plastic surgeon. From day one he explained all procedures very clearly in a simple language and made sure I understood everything. He made himself available so I could contact him directly whenever I had any questions or worries and always responded promptly. He is kind and sympathetic. Very perfectionist and professional. I am really grateful for the way he has always treated me and the job he has done. Thank you very much!!!

From start to finish my experience under the care of Adam Blackburn has be excellent. I aways felt listened to, never rushed and I am in awe of his amazing surgical expertise. He has achieved results beyond my expectation and has delivered them with a professional, calm, considered approach, allowing me to always feel I was in safe in his care. Offering his mobile contact number throughout my treatment, in case I had a problem or was anxious about anything, shows to me his true level of care for his patients.

Explanation

Mr Blackburn is an amazing surgeon. I am so pleased he was my surgeon. Initial consultation - He listened to what I wanted to achieve and showed me tons of pre and post photos. He has tremendous experience and has worked on all body types and therefore has a great perspective of what is surgically possible and would have the best outcome in the long term. Being 6 months post op (breast reduction and tummy tuck), I can now relate to what he was saying in the initial consultation. Surgery - I was very stressed about being under GA and he took time to calm me. He goes to great lengths to explain things and his calm, kind manner is very reassuring. I had my surgery late into the evening and I saw him soon after waking from the surgery. He had already rung my husband by then to update him on the surgery. He was also in first thing the next morning (7ish) to see how I was doing. It is very evident that he takes personal pride in the outcome of the surgery and his dedication to patient care is unparalleled. Aftercare - He provides his patients with his WhatsApp number and responds quickly to any queries, even small ones. This was helpful as my skin reacted to the surgical tape and I had to message him on a Sunday morning. He then checked in with me for the next few mornings to ensure I was back on track. Had several post-op appointments where he monitored my healing. Thankfully I had no issues and healing was smooth-sailing – this, I believe, is purely attributable to Mr Blackburn’s care and skill during surgery. Results - I am very pleased with my results. I have never had breasts that look like this. I am a new person since the muscle repair and tummy tuck - I am now able to do things with a strength I never had before. I would not trust another surgeon with my cosmetic needs – Mr Blackburn is very experienced, very thorough and has fantastic results. He is also extremely considerate and wonderful to deal with.

A very comprehensive and thorough experience. Mr Blackburn put me at ease, explained exactly what was happening, kept me chatting throughout the mole removal and left me with the tiniest scar ever. Great follow up consultation too. Mr Blackburn has a way of putting you at ease, keeping you talking and keeping the humour up so you hardly know anything has happened. Thanks for your care and attention.

Explanation

Mr Blackburn is such a wonderful plastic surgeon, very professional, and caring. I had an immediate bilateral mastectomy with DIEP flap reconstruction (My breast surgeon did my mastectomy) and he did all the planning and reconstructions 4 months ago. My breast reconstruction is very good, it's so amazing how little the scar on my breast is. My tummy looks really good too and flat. I had a challenging 4-6 weeks post op and he always make sure I am ok via a phone call, a text message or seeing me every week. If you asked me if I would come back to see him again, the answer is definitely yes and highly recommended. I am very pleased with the result of my surgery. Thank you so much, Mr Blackburn. Mrs E J.

From the moment I met Mr Blackburn I was made to feel as though he had a genuine interest in me as a person. I had an implant removal and uplift and each option that was available to me was carefully explained with the pros and cons being discussed too. The results of my surgery are amazing. They really are a work of art. I would choose Mr Blackburn over and again.

Adam is a superbly caring and talented plastic surgeon who specialises in all aspects of breast cosmetic surgery. Adam and his team deliver an exemplary service to women undergoing immediate and delayed breast reconstruction using one's own tissues from the lower abdomen (DIEP flap) and upper thigh (Longitudinal upper gracilis /LUG flap). I would have Adam operate on me or my family.
