The people who would operate
We publish a consultant's name and photograph only once their office gives us written permission. Until then we show the post, the qualifications the desk confirms for it, and what that unit does — never an invented doctor.
Head of Department — Neurosurgery
MBBS, MS, MCh (Neurosurgery)
Skull-base tumours and complex spine reconstruction.
Head of Department — Orthopaedics
MBBS, MS (Orthopaedics), Fellowship in Arthroplasty
Robotic knee and hip replacement with short inpatient stays.
Ask us for the named consultant and their surgical volume for your exact condition — we request it from the desk in writing and forward their reply unedited.

Verified video reviews
A video only appears here when three things are true: we recorded it ourselves with the patient or their family, we hold their signed consent, and the treatment happened at this hospital. No paid testimonials, no actors, nothing bought from a review farm.
No consented video review for this hospital yet.
We would rather show you an empty section than a stock testimonial. Written stories from other corridors are on the how-it-works page.
What this profile is not
- We are not this hospital and we never issue the invitation letter. Only its international patient desk can.
- You can contact this desk yourself, free, without us. Turnarounds are what patients report, not a promise.
- If you ask us to introduce you, this hospital may pay us a referral fee. It never changes your treatment price, and we always show estimates from more than one hospital.
- We never hold your passport, and neither should any hospital or agent.
