Read moreMr Slade was excellent. His explanations and bedside manner were both caring and professional. He made the whole experience so much easier for me after having had a lot of medical treatment over the past two years I was dreading another procedure but I can honestly say he made it so easy and pain free.

Thank you so much for your kind words, it means a lot to myself and my team if we are able to offer compassionate, as well as good, care.
I have now had 3 relatively minor procedures undertaken by Mr Slade who was very professional and efficient but also reassuring and compassionate. I would without hesitation recommend Mr Slade. I trust his advice and if i ever needed any further treatment i would always look to return to Mr Slade.
