Reviews

"I can't thank Medbelle especially Joseph, enough, for everything he did to reassure us and organising everything to suit our needs. His attention to detail was second to none. There wasn't any hard sell, as with some of the other companies, just total honest and informative information. We were both very nervous about the procedure, but Joseph was very reassuring, not only to Cody's needs but also set my mind at rest. My daughter had her procedure done at the Highgate Hospital, her Surgeon Mr Rana Das-Gupta, was amazing, we can't thank him enough, he has changed my daughter's world. The staff at the Highgate were the best, not only taking amazing care of Cody but supplying me with endless cups of tea and reassurance during the procedure! The nurses were all so kind and professional. I would recommend Medbelle, Joseph, Mr Das-Gupta and all the staff at the Highgate in a heartbeat and can't thank them enough."

"Sarah at Medbelle has made the whole process smooth and easy and enjoyable. She explained everything in detail and always got back to me straight away if I had a question. She contacts me at least weekly, normally more to see how I’m doing and is always so friendly and helpful. After my operation, Medbelle sent me an aftercare pamper package which was so lovely and thoughtful. Sarah put me in touch with Mr Nilesh Sojitra and booked my original consultation, he was extremely helpful and honest about what he could achieve. I’m glad I listened to his advice and went with what he suggested. He is also very helpful and efficient and put me at ease straight away. The Highgate private hospital was also amazing and it was actually a lovely experience being looked after so well. Would 100% recommend Medbelle and Sarah and all that went with it, they are amazing. I am now 2 weeks postop and well on the way to recovery."

"I strongly recommend Medbelle for breast augmentation. It will fill up your requirement with loads of professionalism. My adviser, Katy was very helpful and she always tried to make me feel good before and after surgery and she provided me all information which I needed at the time. 5 stars for my surgeon Mr Nilesh Sojitra and his staff from Highgate hospital. You can see very clearly they know exactly what they're doing."
