Choosing to have surgery is a big decision, and I am so glad I chose Mr Richard Karoo as my surgeon. From my initial consultation through to my recovery and aftercare, he has been wonderful. He is professional, knowledgeable and highly skilled, but what really stood out to me was how personable, approachable and supportive he is throughout the entire process. He has such a lovely manner and made me feel comfortable from the very beginning. I never felt rushed or silly for asking
From the moment I met Mr Karoo, I knew he was the person I would trust to perform my abdominoplasty. Although I was relatively slim, two previous C-sections had resulted in significant overhang around my abdomen. While this could largely be concealed beneath clothing, it had a considerable impact on my confidence and left me uncomfortable with how my body looked. After years of maintaining a healthy diet and exercising regularly at the gym without seeing the changes I hoped for,

Breast Augmentation
I am 22 years old and had my breast augmentation done at St. Joseph's Hospital with Dr. Karoo just 6 weeks ago, but I am already so impressed with my results! Incisions are healing beautifully and are already barely noticeable. My recovery thus far has been easier than expected. I didn't feel the need to take any pain medication from the day after the operation, which is unbelievable considering I had my implants placed sub-muscularly (dual plane). When trying on sizes, we were

Mr Karoo immediately put me at ease with his professionalism, kindness, and expertise. He took the time to listen to exactly what I wanted, answered all of my questions, and made me feel completely comfortable and confident in my decision. The results have exceeded all of my expectations, they are exactly what I had hoped for.

I had a rhinoplasty with Dr Karoo and I honestly couldn’t recommend him and his team highly enough. From the very first consultation, he put me completely at ease. I was extremely nervous about having surgery on my own without any family support, but he and his staff were incredibly reassuring and supportive throughout the entire journey. The hospital environment itself was calm and welcoming, which made a huge difference when I was feeling anxious. He took the time to answer

Fantastic Results!
I had a bilateral breast augmentation mastopexy with Mr Karoo in January, and I can honestly say I couldn't be happier with the results. This wasn't something I rushed into. I spent a long time researching, reading reviews and looking at different surgeons before making my decision. Choosing to undergo surgery is a big deal, and I wanted to make sure I was in the safest and most experienced hands possible. From my very first consultation, Mr Karoo was everything I had hoped
