Had my gallbladder removal with Dr Woolven at Tamara Private Hospital. The whole process was clear and the recovery side of things was well explained. I appreciated the pre-op nutrition advice and the laparoscopic approach made recovery quicker than I expected. Highly recommend for anyone in Tamworth considering weight management support alongside surgery.
