I had been considering a breast reduction for a couple of years before I ended up having my first consultation with Mr Critchley and as a 21 year old this was a massive step for me to take. From the first consultation, Mr Critchley was extremely professional, friendly and made me feel at ease and comfortable. He explained everything in detail and answered any questions I had surrounding the surgery, this was when I knew I was making the right decision. I am now 5 months post op and feel so much better and more confident in myself. The results are amazing and show Mr Critchleys skill. I highly recommend Mr Critchley to anyone thinking about getting breast surgery.

I had been considering a breast reduction for many years already by the time I ended up in a consultation with Mr Critchley. I had many different delays preventing me from taking this step in my surgery but my main reluctance was anxiety in having to be open to the discussion and the inevitable examination. I explained this to Mr Critchley and I could not have asked for a more professional, reassuring and understanding reaction to my fear and shyness. Mr Critchley did his utmost to make me comfortable, keep me well informed and reassure me on every step of the process from first meeting right through to my last check up during my recovery. He double checked every piece of information and made sure I understood everything raised to have us consistently on the same page so that I always knew what was upcoming. The day of the surgery was very calm and I was confident while getting prepared for the pending procedure. Mr Critchley even called my contact himself when he was done, as they had been waiting nervously, while I was still asleep to have them arrive right when I was returned to my room which made them feel reassured that I was well. I am now 4 months post op and I could not be happier. My chest had a negative impact on almost every part of my life, exercise, sleeping, sitting, wearing clothes, pain and weight just to name a few. My new shape and size along with smooth healing have given me everything I needed to push for a new, more confident and less shadowed with pain way of living that I am extremely grateful for. I recommend Mr Critchley wholeheartedly all around but especially if you find yourself nervous or reluctant to take that first step.

From the first consultation Mr Critchley made me feel at ease and comfortable in discussing surgery and reasons behind it. He explained everything in detail from start to finish which made me feel 100% confident I was making the right decision to have surgery. He is extremely friendly, professional and very knowledgeable. I am 6 days post op and I already feel so much better in myself. I would highly recommend Mr Critchley to anyone wanting to undergo surgery.
