Not only is Mr Karoo an accomplished Plastic Surgeon offering the highest standards of care and treatment, he is a first choice for dermatologists referring patients for surgical removal of skin cancer lesions which require skin grafts. I have been referred to Mr Karoo twice for removal pre-cancerous and cancerous lesions and on both occasions he performed the necessary procedures on an urgent basis as dictated by my condition. I could not have had better treatment or value. Mr Karoo also has special communicative skills and his friendly approach encourages confidence and minimum anxiety. This cascades down to his excellent, dedicated staff who will always go the extra mile to ensure that everything goes smoothly and efficiently to the patients needs and circumstances. I would recommend Mr Karoo as a first choice for any patient seeking the services which he provides.

Booked my initial consultation for 3rd November 2022, in Ulster Independent clinic with Dr Sinclair. I had heard lots of good reviews about him. Got a cancellation slot for my appointment in days time at 8.30am 10th August 2022. Everything moved pretty quickly from then. Initial consultation was full of information by Dr Sinclair followed by my sizing appointment in Fitzwilliam Clinic 26th October 2022. I then received a phone call a week later to tell me the date of my surgery. I was very very nervous about being under anaesthetic, more than the operation itself. I had to go for a covid test Friday before my appointment, the nurse Georgina was amazing, very calming and chilled me out. Day of surgery- Monday 21st November 2022, I arrived to receive another covid test, Stephanie the nurse told me it was just to be sure, Stephanie stayed with me the whole time, while I got my gown on, got drawn up by Dr Sinclair & she walked to the theatre with me. I got really reassured by all the nurses in the room. Ann my antitheist was very calming too. I got a butterfly in my hand & a mask over my face. Next thing I remember wakening up with my new boobs in a warm bed being spoke to by a nurse - Rebecca. Someone who I will be forever grateful for. She made me feel reassured, calm & helped me get dressed, made me tea, chatted about life in general. I was in surgery at 10.05 am and home and in my own bed by 1.30 pm. I had a 10 day review with Dr Sinclair & Georgina. Went well. Then a 3 month review with Dr Sinclair & Stephanie. Went well. I was told any problems to give them a call. 5 months on and I don't ever know what I was afraid of. The best thing I have ever done. I am writing about my experience as reading the reviews before hand helped and supported me. Dr Sinclair is amazing at what he does and will all the help from his brilliant staff. If your thinking about it, I would highly recommend. If you are insecure about your boobs like I was. This will be the best thing you will ever do. #Breast Enlargement surgery

I had breast surgery. This no-frills private hospital was not luxurious in decor in the private rooms, the blinds looked shabby and the walls were painted a nondescript cream. It was very hot as the room faced west and it was a hot summers day of 30c. Air conditioning in reception and theatre but not on the ward. The only food I was offered post op for an overnight stay was toast, I was not given a menu to make a choice, I asked if I could have ice cream told they do not stock it but was offered a yoghurt instead. Breakfast was again toast or cereal. The procedure went well and I cannot fault the medical or nursing team. I was checked on frequently and the care I received was first class. I do feel though that some attention should be paid to the decor on the wards, air conditioning for the wards, and improve the food on offer, as I felt the catering was worse than NHS provision. After all, it is a private hospital and I expected a little bit of luxury to be standard for the price I was paying for the procedure. The staff were polite yet friendly and professional. I was checked on regularly post op and when I rang for assistance help was quick in coming. However, I later found out there were only two overnight patients. The care I received was excellent, with staff washing hands before approaching and on leaving.

I had a breast augmentation 18 years ago they were 800cc implants with Transform and I have been wanting them removed for the last 6 years! I had visited several different surgeons in London & Somerset over the last few years but wasn’t completely comfortable with any of them! For the reasons that because my implants were so large they would be difficult to explant and none of them seemed very confident in explanting them! I’ve spent a long time miserable and unhappy with how I look! I came across Mr El-Gawad one evening through WhatClinic having almost given up. He messaged me back straight away that evening! He listened to me and was very understanding but most importantly very honest with me! and confident in his abilities to help me! I travelled from Somerset to Manchester for a consultation and I Instantly knew he was the man I wanted to perform my surgery! After having the consultation with Mr El-Gawad I decided I wanted him to perform my tummy tuck also! I spoke with Rachel his secretary to arrange my surgery date, I had lots of questions and Rachel his secretary was always at the end of the phone to answer my questions! I am now 4 days post-op and couldn’t be happier! I am now back in Somerset and Mr El-Gawad is still texting me to check I am okay! If you are in any doubt? DO NOT BE! You will not be disappointed! The nurses at Pall Mall Medical were also very helpful and kind. Mr El-Gawad.....Thank you! You truly are a miracle-worker and thank you, Rachel, for all your help and always answering the phone to me!

Very helpful. No pressure. Just an overview of various possible treatments.
