Dr Bhalla is the best doctor / surgeon I have ever met. He is calm, knowledgable and made everything crystal clear. Prior to the operation I was told I’d have paracetamol type discomfort for up to a week and he stepped through each day of the healing process. I can’t explain how easy this whole operation was and it is thanks to Dr Bhalla and his team.
