Mr de Robertis was amazing. From my first consultation to the final visit he took time to explain everything. He brought forward my admission to avoid industrial action and was always available for help if required. The surgery was expertly carried out with virtually no pain. Thank you for your wonderful care.

Explanation

Seeking a competent surgeon within 2 years of failed heart surgery after what I had been through was a daunting task requiring much due diligence. I knew that a second attempt at a cardiac myectomy so soon had serious risks but my health was deteriorating. From the moment I met Fabio I felt comfortable. He was prepared to spend whatever time necessary to explain what must be achieved, the risks involved, and the resources around him for this 8+ hours of surgery. I cannot recommend Fabio highly enough for his skill, care, and interest in my recovery.

Mr De Robertis is charming and excuse the pun but my heart opened to him and his manner. Everything he said and did was carried out without a hitch. In a personal discussion with a friend who until recently was also a surgeon although in another field reviewed the discharge letter and was greatly impressed with content.

Explanation

I chose Mr De Robertis based on his experience with doing '' Off Pump'' CABG using mammary arteries over veins. It didn't hurt when my research showed he once trained with Magdi Yacoub and done some charity work in Africa ! My experience of the operation , where a minor issue was dealt with expeditiously and aftercare by Mr De Robertis and his team at the Harefield was excellent in every respect. Despite being an obviously hard working surgeon this is also a compassionate and attentive surgeon with a great bedside manner. I couldn't have hoped for a better surgeon and a better outcome ! Last but not least backed up by a great PA , Debbie Waddon , calm polite and efficient.
