Best experience - good advice and very transparent in what the issues are and the solutions and what a patient can or should do best to solve the problems one has. I have had sleep apnea for a long time and breathing issues - seen many doctors tried many things but only one doctor has been able to solve this properly - Mr Veer is my hero!

After reading other reviews about Mr Veer, I was prepared to wait to see him when I was referred by my GP to an ENT consultant and I was so pleased I did. Mr Veer made me feel very welcome and at ease when we first met. I felt listened to and he explained everything so clearly. This was my first appointment with him and am due to see him again. Mr Veer also has lots of videos on You Tube explaining a multitude of ENT related matters. Would highly recommend.

Having suffered from severe disruptive sleep apnea with a severity that was off the Epworth scale, my experience with Mr. Vik Veer, the ENT surgeon who performed my Tonsillectomy and Barbed Suture Palatopharyngoplasty, has been truly transformative. Understanding the gravity of my sleep apnea condition, Mr. Veer approached my case with a level of expertise and dedication that went above and beyond. He took the time to thoroughly explain the implications of my condition and how the chosen surgical procedures would directly impact my sleep apnea. His comprehensive approach, coupled with a deep understanding of sleep medicine, instilled confidence in his ability to address the severity of my sleep apnea. The results have been nothing short of remarkable. Post-surgery, I've experienced a significant improvement in the quality of my sleep, and the reduction in the severity of my sleep apnea is evident. Mr. Vik Veer's skill in navigating complex cases, combined with his commitment to patient well-being, has made a profound difference in my life. I am immensely grateful to Mr. Vik Veer for his exceptional care and expertise. His ability to tackle severe cases, such as mine, reflects his commitment to making a meaningful impact on the lives of his patients. I wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Vik Veer to anyone facing severe sleep apnea or related issues, as he has proven himself to be an outstanding and compassionate healthcare professional.

Dr Veer is able to answer questions most Dr’s can’t answer. After battling with the NHS over tongue tie and a constant cough, finally some sense and action for both my sons .

Mr Veer took the time to explain my issues and my options at great length. He was very thorough in explaining procedures and recovery times, I felt very well prepared for what was about to come. He didnt in any way push options onto me and made sure I had all the facts.

I received an appointment promptly. Mr Veer's affable and most importantly, informed service, expertise and care was refreshingly clear. He explained the possibilities for diagnosis and treatment very clearly and concisely with a smile. I felt put at ease and empowered on shaking is hand and leaving. Mr Veer's manner is friendly and open and I would most definitely recommend him. If you're at all worried about apnea or ENT matters email his secretary without delay. Verdict... 'Money well spent!'

Went to see Vik to get a second opinion on some ear issues I had been experiencing for a few months (Eustachian Tube Dysfunction and Tinnitus). The consultation was excellent, listened to everything and provided in-depth explanations of the issues, what to expect and reassured me I was on the path to full recovery.

Mr Veer is a leading and innovative ENT specialist who offers a range of non-surgical and surgical treatment options for sleep breathing disorders. I often refer my patients with suspected sleep breathing conditions to Mr Veer, and would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending a consultation with Mr Veer for any patients who are interested in a solution for their sleep related breathing disorder.

Having trained and worked alongside Vik, I can say he does exactly what it says on the tin, and more... He is a skilled surgeon and also has a great breadth of knowledge, always working on the next idea to transform and advance the field of ENT.
Mr Nav Kara
Vik is a wonderful ENT specialist managing patients with upper airway breathing, snoring, tonsil and sleep apnoea issues. I regularly refer patients to him, as I beleive he is London's leading expert in this field and the feedback from patients has been glowing. He is marvellous communicator and very sensitive to patient needs as well as an astute and skilled diagnositician and surgeon. I will continue to refer those with these problems to him with pleasure.
