Mr Jenkinson performed a roux n y gastric bypass. This amazing minimally invasive surgery was never painful or even caused discomfort. In hospital 24 hours and the recovery was easy and supported by the care of the bariatric team. At 63 years old, I’m cautious in over estimating the benefits - but having lost 32 kilos in five months - I feel like I’m starting my life wearing a body I’m happy to be seen in. Mr Jenkinson is highly recommended. Mr CS, RNY bypass

"I underwent bariatric surgery with Mr. Jenkinson and his team after a relatively brief decision-making period. Despite initial apprehensions, the holistic care provided by the team was exceptional. - Kate Waller, the bariatric nutritionist, offered invaluable guidance on nutrition, significantly changing my understanding and ensuring long-term success. - Dr. Danielle Cottee-Lane, the psychologist, helped me explore the psychological aspects of my obesity, equipping me with strategies to maintain weight loss. - Natalie Cole, the Practice Manager, was instrumental in managing all practical aspects with remarkable patience and efficiency. - An extra special mention to Dr. Maan Hasan, the anaesthetist, whose exceptional care during a moment of post-surgery pain was deeply comforting.

Mr. Jenkinson himself was not only highly skilled in the surgical procedure itself, but also provided comprehensive education and empathetic support, which greatly boosted my confidence. Mr Jenkinson's two books, "Why We Eat (Too Much)" and "How to Eat (And Still Lose Weight) are both exceptional reading, and a great place to both educate yourself about obesity and inspire you to tackle it in your own life in a practical, applied way. Though there were challenges, the team's prompt and efficient response was commendable. Nine months post-surgery, I have achieved a huge BMI reduction (from 43 to 26) and have embarked on a healthier, happier lifestyle. I strongly recommend Mr. Jenkinson’s team to those considering bariatric surgery. Their expertise and care are unparalleled - please do consider getting in touch and making an appointment soon. Mr TR, mini gastric bypass
