Mr Sarakbi was very understanding and patient from start to finish. He listened carefully to my concerns, I was having breast implant replacement due to the age of my existing implants. I didn't want to change anything really, but had some concerns about rippling. Mr Sarakbi recommended a great set of implants that were like for like, and I was very happy with. He explained carefully about the risks involved - some I knew about, some I didn't. He gave me a lot of information to read. On the day I was nervous, but his whole team were really supportive and pleasant, especially Tina his assistant breast specialist nurse. I'm very happy with the outcome and definitely recommend him.

Dr Sarakbi was incredible from my consultation to my surgery!! I had my old implants removed and replaced by Dr Sarakbi and I couldn’t be happier or more grateful. I was anxious about being put to sleep but Dr Sarakbi was so good at keeping me calm, he had explained everything thoroughly and on the day of my surgery I didn’t feel any anxiety at all. Which for me was a huge thing!! I couldn’t recommend him enough. Not only is Dr Sarakbi extremely professional but he is so down to earth, patient and caring. Thank you so so much.

I had a wonderful experience with Mr. Will Sarakbi as my surgeon for a breast reduction. From the initial consultation to the surgery and beyond, his professionalism and care were exceptional. Mr. Sarakbi listened attentively to my concerns and explained the procedure thoroughly, putting me at ease. His expertise during the surgery was evident, and the results exceeded my expectations. What made the experience truly special was Mr. Sarakbi's genuine dedication to my well-being. His kindness and skill combined to create a positive and professional experience that I'm grateful for.

Mr Sarakbi was amazing from start to finish. I’m quite an anxious patient and had put this procedure off for years as a result. I knew that everything depended really on how I felt about him. The consultation was therefore key for me. I decided to see him initially for his experience and expertise in breast augmentation. I then chose to go ahead because he made me feel comfortable and confident about both after meeting him. He asked me what I wanted and then kindly talked me through my options. I felt that he was very patient focused and yet didn’t compromise on his professional opinion of what was best for me clinically and physically. I think that that is a difficult balance to get from a surgeon. Everything went smoothly and I’m beyond happy with the results. I just wish I’d gone to him sooner! I have barely a mark on me scar wise. Even the nurse in my first after care appointment exclaimed after checking me for the first time, that “he’s so good isn’t he?!” Yes he is. Thank you SO much! I have three friends that want to come to see you now as they’re so impressed.

Explanation

I recently had a breast reduction with Mr Sarakbi and I could not be any happier with the results - currently 6 weeks post op. Dr Will explained very well what would happen during surgery as well as any potential risks, and since our first appointment I felt in very safe hands. He removed approximately 2kg of breast tissue in total, the size is perfect and I have had a relatively seamless recovery process. The aftercare team was also very helpful with any questions I had, so I felt supported every step of way. I am absolutely thrilled with not only my journey thus far but my incredible results. I would totally recommend Will Sarakbi for any breast surgery.

Explanation

After 28 years of contemplation, patience, research, dreaming, wishing, constant back and forth in my head and countless conversations with family and friends not to mention the dreaded fear and trepidation of the general anaesthetic. Handing my body and all control over to a stranger was very unnerving although I trusted I’d be in the capable hands of a well trained and skilled surgeon in that field of expertise. I met with Dr Will Sarakbi for my consultation who is a very well dressed gentleman, coordinated from head top to shoe stop, well mannered, he has a soothing low tone voice but still audible enough for one to hear with a cool, collective and poised demeanour. I felt heard and safe with Will who was attentive to my needs and concerns which resulted in my desired outcome. Shortly after the surgery he’d come and sat himself on the bedside to check and make sure I was feeling ok and gave me a sneak peek of his well skilled work of art, we spoke briefly and I was left to rest with breadcrumbs all over my mouth looking like a mess! - lol 4 months post opt and the small incisions are barely visible as I made sure I followed the care instructions to the letter T and I’m of a Caribbean background melanated chocolate woman to which we are more prone to hyperpigmentation where scarring is concerned. As soon as I was allowed to remove the dressings after a short period I went to work on any scarring by applying Vitamin E oils and shea butter. Dr Will Sarakbi you are highly recommended!!! Thank you much always.

Explanation

Trusting in Will's expertise resulted in the perfect balance for my body. Due to factors and risks (discussed at length twice and in writing), the operation was limited to a mastopexy. With the option for implants at a later stage. The result at 6 weeks is incredible. I'm grateful for his direct, firm (in a good way), and yet caring manner. With great post operative suggestions and guidance. Seen at the Cadogan clinic (there's no option to select this clinic, but he practices at the selected hospital).
