Mr Martin Evans is an extremely nice gentleman and I am very pleased with the hernia operation he did for me. My stay at the hospital was brief but very pleasant . My only disappointment was that I felt both he and the nursing staff made light of the after effects of the operation. I live with a lot of pain on a daily basis and am used to it but had not been warned that some people get extreme pain after this operation. If I had been warned I would have not been so frightened and worried that something was wrong, when clearly, it wasn’t. Now that I know this, if I ever needed a hernia operation again then Mr Martin Evans would be my first choice of surgeon.

From start to finish and through out my colonoscopy by Mr M Evans , l was kept very well informed , I was also treated with the upmost respect , and cared in a manner that everyone would wish to be when faced with a colonoscopy procedure. Mr Evans was very professional and made me feel at ease . The staff were amazing. They communicate well with patients and worked well as a team . They obviously like working together which makes for a happy environment.
