Always check the doctors background first, I learnt the hard way given that I was told in an email the Dr "is a very professional and experienced surgeon and has done many operations here with excellent results and we at Nu have every confidence in him." and "Thanks, know you will be pleased with your result."
"As you know what you read is not always the case." Rightly so as I was advised by one of their staff.
The truth was that he had been given warnings, has restrictions imposed and had been previously suspended.
search "GMC" for the Dr you will be using;
Unfortunately, I only discovered the above after my revision surgery. Lets start at the beginning though.
I had an operation with this clinic and the Dr, only upon my request for a review (as it wasn't offered to me at first) was I advised that an area had collapsed and needed revision surgery.
I went back for the revision surgery to "correct" the area. In the mean time, they offered kindly to do some additional work at no extra cost. Great I thought at first.
Problem was, the area that collapsed, still isn't right and now I have a large line across my abdominal area which i've been informed is due to it being too deep. After my complaint below, I was initially offered to be reviewed by the same Dr again.
Would you go with the same doctor after its collapsed twice? Needless to say, I rejected his offer.
Having discovered after numerous emails and calls that "Nu Cosmetic Clinic" is a trading name for "London Health & Wellness Ltd" and not "Nu Cosmetic Clinic Limited" which they had previously advertised on their website (that company is now in liquidation) WORRYINGLY.
This of course was changed when I did some background checks and requested an explanation of the legal company entity (name of the business). I hold the screenshots to prevent any legal repercussions.
If this stops one person, then it has done its job.
I should also note that the "London Health & Wellness Ltd" is not regulated by the Care Quality Commission.
