I had to get my appendix removed and was a bit nervous about the surgery. Dr Lai put me at ease with thorough explanations and gentle persuasion about the procedure. Post-op care in Heidelberg was great and I felt supported the whole way.

From the first consult in Burgundy Street, I felt I was in capable hands. The hernia repair was precise, and the scar is minimal. The team at Heidelberg Medical Centre were fantastic with reminders and follow-up.
