A clear, unhurried consultation to understand your symptoms, review your history and agree a personalised plan, in a private and comfortable setting.
Specialist opinion when it matters
Appointments typically within 3–5 working days.
Whether you are covered by medical insurance or paying privately, Mr Kumar offers prompt access to specialist care with most patients seen within 3 to 5 working days.
Your consultation
Please contact your insurer before your consultation to obtain pre-authorisation. Mr Kumar is recognised by all major medical insurers including BUPA, AXA, Aviva, Vitality and WPA.
Once your appointment is confirmed, you will receive details to share with your insurer. A GP referral letter is usually required by your insurer prior to your appointment.
Self-Pay Patients
No GP referral is required for a self-pay private consultation. Our team will take the necessary information from you before confirming your appointment.
Fixed, transparent fees are provided upfront with no hidden costs. A full cost estimate for any investigation or procedure will be discussed before you commit to treatment.
Mr Kumar will take a detailed history of your symptoms, their duration and any relevant past medical or surgical history. Please bring any previous letters, scan reports or blood test results with you.
A focused clinical examination will be carried out in a private consulting room. A chaperone can be present during the examination if you wish. Please request this when booking your appointment.
Mr Kumar will explain his findings clearly and discuss the most appropriate next steps, whether that is further investigations, a non-surgical approach, or surgical treatment. You will have the opportunity to ask questions and all options will be explained in full.
A clinic letter summarising your consultation and agreed plan will be sent to you and your GP. If investigations are arranged, results will be communicated promptly with a clear explanation of what they mean.
If you are seeking a second opinion, Mr Kumar is happy to review your case and previous medical records. Where appropriate, your case may be discussed at a Specialist Multidisciplinary Team Meeting (SMDT) to provide a comprehensive expert opinion. The outcome will be communicated to your referring doctor and to you directly.
To ensure a thorough assessment, please bring or arrange to have sent any relevant clinic letters, imaging reports, scan images and histology results prior to your appointment.
Expert surgical care with prompt access and a personalised approach from consultation to recovery.
