It is very important for you to examine the reasons for undergoing plastic surgery as it is unlikely to resolve any life issues you may have. Having surgery to please someone else is not the basis from which to make this decision. Plastic surgery will certainly boost your confidence and self-esteem but you do need to be realistic about your expectations. Mr Ghosh will advise you as to what can be achieved at your consultation.

No, but you are strongly advised to do so. It is not necessary to obtain a referral from your GP, however the General Medical Council advises that your GP should be kept informed of ALL medical treatments that you undergo.

All consultations are with Mr Ghosh. On arrival at the clinic you will be asked to complete a Registration Form and Medical Questionnaire in order for Mr Ghosh to know your social and past medical history. During your consultation you will be given the opportunity to discuss at length your requirements and Mr Ghosh will then go through the stages of the surgical procedure you are interested in. Mr Ghosh will also carry out an examination at your consultation.

You will be provided with ample written literature covering all aspects of your surgery/treatment together with a quote following your initial consultation with Mr Ghosh. This will clarify the points raised during your consultation enabling you to make a fully informed decision, having understood the nature of your surgery and the risks and complications associated with it, prior to booking your surgery.

No. Mr Ghosh does not believe that digital imaging gives realistic views towards surgical results.

Ask Mr Ghosh all the questions you want – it is always best to get all the information you need about the procedure and recovery time. Although you can always return for a further consultation if you forget anything. We recommend that you write a list of questions and bring these along to your consultation, as many patients leave their consultation having forgotten to ask these specific questions.

After consultation you will be provided with a quote for your proposed surgery and any further information relevant to your surgery.
