I was very happy with the outcome of my operation

I feel incredibly lucky to have had my surgery (04/01/24) with Mr Jayanthi. I had my gallbladder and a stone blocking my bile duct removed in one surgery. He made me feel comfortable and explained everything in full. The recovery was a breeze and my wounds healed quickly and I think this is down to his skills. I would highly recommend him!

I was recently reffed to Mr Jayanthi from another private surgeon for Gallbladder removal, I had a stone in my common bike duct which needed removal so I had an on table cholangiogram. The surgeon recommended Mr Jayanthi was the person to go this for me as it was a very skilful procedure and he is highly respected for this surgery . I had my consultation and he put me at ease especially as I suffer with anxiety and was so nervous. The operation went to plan and I spent the night in Springfield Hospital and came home the following afternoon once my drain was removed. I had keyhole surgery.Had my 8 week follow up appointment and all was well . So pleased I was referred to him he is such a lovely man , so kind and always smiling . He listens to everything you ask .. I would highly recommended him 😊
