I cannot speak highly enough of Mr Richard Lovegrove. Not only regarding his skill and expertise as a surgeon, but in him as a person. Throughout all the consultations with and procedures I have had carried out by Mr Lovegrove, he has been extremely thorough, caring, kind, patient, refreshingly humble and incredibly efficient in his communication and organisation. A combination of qualities to a level I have not experienced before with any other consultant. He has in-depth knowledge beyond his own specialisms, which has proved invaluable - picking up on issues which have previously been missed elsewhere. I have total confidence in him and trust him implicitly in every respect.

Could not fault Richard Lovegrove. His lovely manner made me feel at ease, and felt that I could discuss anything regarding my condition with him without any embarrassment. Would highly recommend him to anyone needing treatment in his speciality.

I found Mr Lovegrove to be very kind, he put me at ease, and he was very patient when discussing my concerns. With his help a diagnosis was reached which is reassuring. I received copies of letters re my condition and his recommendations very quickly for which I was very grateful.
