Dr Ralph was also my lead consultant when I had an implant. However on the day he did not carry out the procedure. It was one of his colleagues. If your having this done at UCLH this is a teaching hospital and he might just be overseeing the operation.
If I did go down that route, I would find out as soon as possible if Dr Ralph would be the lead surgeon and only give me expressed consent for him and him alone to perform. He did say ‘make sure you come to me’ so that was good. I hope he doesn’t retire any time soon!
If you wanna make sure that you get him, you need to light a fire under your ass and get the surgery date booked NOW.
