I am only at the age of 28 so having one of my age...

I am only at the age of 28 so having one of my age i guess isnt the most common procedure. I've always wanted to have smaller breast so when i had the opportunity to go private i contacted the Vale Hospital, Cardiff straight away who then assigned Mr Karoo to me.
From start to finish the whole process was brilliant. I do not have any negative comments to make. Yes, its a big operation, yes it there is complication - i was fortunate to have an amazing surgeon Mr. Karoo and didn't experience complications.
The procedure is a big one, but, i dealt with the pain very well and didn't suffer. Each person is different when it comes to pain level but, as for myself i was more than able to cope with it an carry on with day to day actives just being extra careful. If anyone was to ask about what surgeon/surgery to go to i would hands down say Mr.Karoo

Mr.Karoo puts you at ease straight away from the moment you meet him. He is so knowledgeable an professional. He's also such a friendly face and warming towards his patients you gain confidence in him straight away. He explains all the complications which could happen and makes sure this is the right decision for you. He is there for you from the moment you go to that consultation to the 6 month post op if you decide to go ahead. I honestly don't think i could of found a nicer/more than qualified surgeon. Very happy patient.
