Breast reduction 2017

Last month I underwent a breast reduction operation. For many years, I had suffered problems associated with very large breasts, and after some research organized a consultation with Mr Platt to discuss a possible operation. Mr Platt immediately came across as an extremely professional, experienced and empathetic surgeon who could understand my problem and offer sound advice in a very positive and thoughtful manner. This gave me the confidence to then go ahead with the surgery. The surgery and aftercare couldn’t have gone any better, and I couldn’t have wished for a better result. I couldn’t recommend Mr Platt highly enough – his professionalism, knowledge and talent as a surgeon, his manner with me as a patient and with the staff who work alongside him. Perfect!

Breast Augmentation 2017

Absolutely outstanding. Mr Platt is truly amazing at what he does, I was so unhappy for many years pre surgery and I couldn't possibly be any happier now, post surgery. What a transformation! I am and I will be eternally grateful to him. I'd most certainly recommend him for his work, talent, professionalism and knowledge and skill to anyone and everyone. Couldn't have asked for anything more and all of the nursing staff at the hospital were incredible too.

Tummy Tuck 2017

Mr Platt carried out my abdominoplasty in August 2010 after my skin was badly stretched from 3 pregnancies. He was professional & realistic about my results and it was one of the best things I ever did. Seven years on & I'm still very happy with my tummy. My scar is from hip to hip but incredibly neat.

Rhinoplasty 2017

My experience with Mr.Platt was amazing, I'd been thinking about the surgery for a while and he put no pressure on me to get it done. He was very reassuring before during and after and the results are amazing I'm very happy!

Breast Augmentation 2017

After careful consideration and research I finally decided to have a breast augmentation. I can honestly say I am so very happy with the way I have been looked after from start to finish. From me first booking the appointment with Gale and Sandra to meeting with Mr Platt, my care has been of the highest priority. I have been able to talk openly about the look I want and about the different types of implants. I was advised well on the best size range for me and my body as to not look fake. I cannot thank Mr Platt and his team enough for taking good care of me and my dreams. Karen the sister did a brilliant job of putting me at ease in my pre op and the anaesthetist was so lovely I just knew I would be safe. Thank you all.

Non surgical treatments 2017

Mr Platt was extremely helpful, not only does he consistently welcome myself and put myself at ease during any such procedure, but his experience and expertise in the field is not only reassuring but unrivaled. The integrity with which Mr Platt operates ensures that any such procedure carried out are done so consequent to an informed understanding of the procedure, its risks, relative need and suitability. Not only does Mr Platt care about his work but the care he has for his patients is notable also.

Face Lift and Upper and Lower Blepharoplasties 2017

After extensive research I came upon Mr Platt and decided to meet him. At my consultation he gave me the time to listen to my hopes for surgery and also my concerns, in return I was given an honest and professional opinion. After full consideration I went ahead with eyelid, eye bag and “R” face and neck lift. The results are amazing, the best thing is I don’t look different but the clock has been turned back at least 10 years. My fear was that I would not look like me anymore and friends would notice, but in fact nobody has noticed just commented on how great I look. I got married 3 months after my surgery and felt and looked truly beautiful. Mr Platt, his Secretary Gale and the nursing staff at Spire Hospital, Hull took the best care of me throughout my experience from beginning to end.

Abdominoplasty 2017

Having had three caesarean sections and losing all the pregnancy weight I was left with an unsightly saggy apron of skin. This not only caused discomfort during hot weather and skin conditions but made buying clothes challenging as I had to go up a size to accommodate the apron of skin but then had too much bagginess in garments over my legs and waist. Mr Platt performed an abdominoplasty in January 2017 and 5 weeks post op I am very pleased with the result. This has exceeded my expectations and given me my body and confidence back. Mr Platt explained the procedure in detail and showed me photos pre and post surgery. I was encouraged to make contact outside of my appointments if I had any concerns (I didn’t have any). Mr Platt was non judgmental, patient and attentive in all appointments and during my inpatient stay. I had my surgery at St Hugh’s Hospital, Grimsby and everything went to plan. I would recommend Mr Platt to anyone considering this surgery.

Carpal Tunnel Surgery 2015

Despite being in some pain, he made me feel that he understood my predicament and was able to offer a solution. His approach was both compassionate and comforting. As to the surgery this was carried out under a local anaesthetic. The team of people working with him were relaxed and professional and I found this very reassuring. The result of the two procedures was unbelievable as I was able to at last sleep without being woken up with pain. Early days yet but but my life has improved immensely and I judge the experience of being treated by Mr Platt a success. I am very grateful.

Breast Enlargement 2014

I went to the Spire because my auntie had a procedure there and highly recommended it, it's a lovely hospital and also the staff really do take care of you. I had been wanting a breast enlargement since I can remember I have never liked the way they looked they were flat, large nipples and uneven sizes. When I booked my consultation I was nervous and scared but as soon as I sat down with Mr Platt I felt comfortable. He made sure I understood the procedure and the complications and never made me feel pressured into making a decision there and then, he made sure I thought about it and gave me information I needed. I have never felt this happy I am in love with the new me, I never thought I would have a good pair of breasts! Mr Platt is the best and I would definitely recommend him, if I ever want another procedure he would be the surgeon I call.

Face lift and eyelid surgery 2014

My first meeting with Mr Platt was when I booked a consultation with him to ask about facial cosmetic surgery. He asked what I didn’t like about my face, he gave me a few options, suggestions, to go away and think about. I cannot stress enough that you are under no pressure to have anything done. He is a very kind considerate man and will put you at ease on your first meeting. Finally I decided on a MACS facelift, upper and lower eyes, and a neck lift, which I had done at the Spire Anlaby. It’s a very hard decision to make when your looking for a trusted Surgeon to perform facial surgery on yourself. I can tell you from experience, Mr Platt is an amazing Surgeon with brilliant surgical skills, the best decision I made was to ask Mr Platt to do my surgery. From consultation through to full recovery he and his staff are always there for you. Thank you so very much Mr Platt, I haven’t felt or looked this good for years.

Breast Augmentation 2013

After breastfeeding 3 children my breast tissue and volume had reduced dramatically and I wanted to feel like a woman again. I booked into a consultation where Mr Platt went into more detail about the operation and gave me a chance to ask any questions. The operation went very well and I was extremely happy with the result. With having the operation at the Spire Hospital I was only a short drive away so if I had needed to see Mr Platt it would have been easy to get in touch.

Tummy Tuck (abdominoplasty) 2013

After losing almost 8 stone I was left with lose hanging skin and a horrible jelly belly. I was left wanting to disappear into the back ground of life as I never felt happy or satisfied in my clothes, always hiding my belly in baggy tops and oversized trousers/skirts which helped disguise my jelly belly and constant muffin top. After a great deal of research I decided to meet Mr Platt. His approach was warm and assuring and I felt he understood exactly what I wanted to achieve from the surgery. Throughout the entire process Mr Platt was caring, professional and a real gentleman I felt well informed and aware of the required aftercare following surgery. I really can’t thank Mr Platt enough for helping me achieve this new outlook and zest for life.

The surgery went well and apart from a little pain and discomfort the recovery also went well. The before and aftercare were both very good and Mr Platt made me feel at ease throughout. Since my breast augmentation I feel so much better about myself and I am happy with the results.

Rhinoplasty 2012

Mr Platt was recommended to myself by a good friend who is in the medical industry, when I first met him at the initial consultation I felt totally at ease and extremely happy with all the information he provided me with and went straight ahead and booked in for him to perform my rhinoplasty.

Tummy Tuck (abdominoplasty) 2012

In December 2012 I had an abdominoplasty at the Spire hospital in Hull under the care of Mr Platt. I am absolutely delighted with the result. Mr Platt was so professional and caring, he explained the whole procedure to me and showed me some before and after photos of previous surgery which he had done. He also explained all of the risks and things which may go wrong and how I would be after the operation. After being examined and deemed suitable for the surgery, I decided to go ahead with it. I was very confident that I had chosen the right surgeon and almost one year later I know I made the right decision. Mr Platt is my hero and I would recommend him to everyone.

Breast Augmentation 2012

I went to the Spire in Anlaby to one of their open nights where I met Mr Platt. He explained the procedure very clearly without using too much medical lingo. I felt very confident and assured with him so I booked a private consultation. I explained what I wanted and he advised me on the size of implants he would use. I felt very at ease with him and satisfied that I had made the right choice. My operation was performed and I was able to go home the next day. I had no bruising and no discomfort and was extremely pleased with my new breasts. I chose to stay local as I felt that if any problems occurred I didn’t have to be far away from my home and my family. Also my lack of bruising was down to the fact that Mr Platt is very gentle surgeon.

Tummy Tuck (abdominoplasty), Mastopexy, Thigh Lift 2010

I first met Mr Platt in 2006 after I had lost a significant amount of weight and had four children which had resulted in extreme saggy skin on my tummy which was hindering my exercise regime and causing me skin problems. He performed an abdominoplasty and my life (and my body!) was literally transformed. I had so much more confidence and for the first time in years I felt attractive again. Despite being nervous, Mr Platt instilled me with confidence and was so professional, courteous and caring that I had no hesitation in booking 'Round 2' of my transformation under his care. In February 2010 I underwent a mastopexy and a thigh lift. I am very happy with the results already and I am looking forward to the Summer! I can highly recommend Mr Platt for his professionalism and his surgical skill and the service provided by his secretary; Gale and the whole hospital team!
