Q&A with Heather Payne
I actually feel you have created something rather unique or at least most unusual as far as specialist medical care is concerned, It is not only clinically excellent but there seems to be an ethos of patient care rather beyond normal expectations. It is almost like a homely club where the patients obviously share a common set of problems; but the way in which all the staff approach patients, at least that is my experience, is exemplary. It is both friendly and efficient, and that is impressive.

My wife and I would like to thank you and your team for the superb quality of every aspect of the work that you carried out; first class and totally professional. It is no wonder that you are in such demand.
Graham Rogers, Previous patient at The Prostate Centre
Surgery is seldom a pleasurable experience, but I wanted to thank you so much for getting quite close to making it so! The whole operation at The Prostate Centre inspires confidence, and you all treat the patients with great kindness and courtesy. The operation and its aftermath were pain-free and the results thus far appear to be excellent. What is it they say about exceeding expectations?
