I’m so glad I saw Dr Budge for my weight loss journey. His approach was clear, supportive and practical, combining bariatric surgery options with solid nutrition guidance. The whole team in Leichhardt made the pre-op and post-op process smooth, and I’m already feeling lighter and more energetic.
After years of yo-yo dieting, I finally found a plan that worked. Dr Budge explained the gastric sleeve option in plain terms and walked me through the recovery steps. The laparoscopic approach meant minimal downtime and I felt in safe hands right from day one at the NSW clinic near Marion Street.
I’m grateful for Dr Budge’s expertise and honest advice. He helped with weight loss counseling, dietary changes, and a successful hernia repair when needed. The whole experience in Leichhardt felt personalised and attentive. Highly recommend to anyone in the Inner West.
From the initial consult to the post-op check-ins, Dr Budge kept things straightforward and compassionate. I opted for laparoscopic gallbladder surgery and was back to normal quicker than I expected. The guidance on nutrition afterwards was superb.
Excellent surgeon with a calm manner. Dr Budge provided clear expectations about weight loss options and stayed accessible if I had questions. The pre-surgery discussions in Leichhardt made me feel well-prepared for what’s ahead.
I appreciated Dr Budge’s balanced approach to upper GI and general surgery. He explained the benefits of the gastric sleeve and how it fits with my lifestyle. The laparoscopic work was first-class and I recovered with minimal fuss.
The team at 185 Marion Street were fantastic. Dr Budge listened to my concerns about nutrition and weight management, then outlined a realistic plan that included weight loss guidance and ongoing lifestyle support. I’m feeling hopeful again.
