Attune Clinic

I was referred to Mr Banwell to have reconstructive work following cancer surgery. As you can imagine I was aprenshive and really didn’t want to have to go through more surgeries but meeting with Mr Banwell put all those fears to rest. I can not thank him enough for his professional and straightforward advice - he always gives his experienced opinion rather than what you might want to hear so you can make a genuinely informed decision.
He also really listens to you. Often in these appointments things can often seem rushed but he really took his time and the care he gave me, and my loved ones around me, was noticed and greatly appreciated.
The aftercare and follow ups that I was given by Mr Banwell and Sarah were amazing - I felt incredibly supported and they were both always available to speak to - in fact, Sarah would call every day to check in on me and when I was worried Mr Banwell was available for me to visit at one of his clinics - evenings and weekends even.
I have nothing but glowing reports when I speak of how Mr Banwell changed my life. I have now refound the respect I had lost when I first had cancer surgery - his work is phenomenal. Thank you Mr Banwell - you’re the best!

I have been fortunate enough to have been under the care of Mr Banwell for the last 3+ years following two occurrences of breast cancer.

I have always appreciated his honesty surrounding end results of procedures as well as remaining compassionate about my circumstances.

He has always been incredibly patient with my numerous questions at each visit and answered them to my satisfaction.

I would have no hestitation in recommending him! In fact he's creating me a new nipple this year following on from a reconstruction!

Thank you!

Having spent years lacking in self-confidence and being very insecure about my breasts(very saggy and very large areola) I decided time to find the perfect surgeon, and I certainly did with Mr Banwell. He made me feel totally at ease, with his confidence, professionalism and caring manner. From my initial consultation right through to my aftercare my treatment and care has been super and now 6 weeks on I couldn't be happier with my results. Thank you Mr Banwell

I waited nervously and with some hesitation when I attended the first consultation with Dr Banwell. I felt embarrassed and unsure about what to expect. Upon meeting Dr Banwell, he made me feel very welcome and made me feel at ease with both his professionalism and light-hearted sense of humour. Just before my operation, I felt that I needed to see Dr Banwell one last time, to clarify some points and for my own peace of mind. Sarah, Dr Banwell's PA was able to fit me in at short notice and acted swiftly to meet my needs. Sarah was also very kind to call me the day after surgery, to ask about my wellbeing. Just before being taken down to surgery, Dr Banwell again reassured me about the procedure and lightened my nerves with his sense of humour. It is so important for a Dr to have "people skills" , especially when patients are at their most vulnerable state. Straight after surgery and after a long day at the Holly, Dr Banwell managed to visit me and ask how i was. Again, he gave me reassurance with words that I wanted to hear, which was that "it had gone really well". I have had two follow ups since my operation and Nurse Maricor was so lovely whenever I attended the clinic at the Holly. Again, Dr Banwell maintained his consistent advice for aftercare and what I should expect over the next 6 months or so. He also made me feel that he had an "open door" policy where I could just call him if anything worries me before my next appointment. Now three weeks on and my breasts are healing more and more with each day. I am so grateful for the professionalism, patience and Dr Banwell's sense of humour. Because he portrayed confidence, that reflected on how it made me feel and prepared me well for what would be a life changing operation for me. I would gladly recommend Dr Banwell onto others and in fact I already have. Thank you so much to all the staff involved and above all to Dr Banwell for his "magic hands".

I had had two previous consultations before I saw Mr Miles Banwell neither of the previous consultation gave me 100% confidence (gut feelings were wrong) then I saw Dr Banwell from the moment I met him I had 100% confidence, he explained everything to me very thoroughly he didn't flower it up he told me as it was, he told me every stage I would go through, how hard doing nothing and resting would be haha, which is exactly what I needed to hear. I saw Dr Banwell two weeks before my surgery and on the morning before the procedure. After my surgery I spent two days in Baddow Hospital which was amazing, I didn't want to leave.
Once I was home Sarah, Dr Banwells secretary phoned and text me daily with any advise or queries I had. Reinforcing my need to do nothing and rest and booking my future appointments.
I can't express how much this has not only changed my appearance but it has changed the way a view myself. The physical benefits are equal to the confidence benefits for me, I am very grateful to Dr Banwell, Sarah and the team at Baddow Hospital for their care and attention.
Thank you all very much. :-)

After years of struggling with very large breasts I finally plucked up the courage to have a breast reduction last year. It was a huge decision to make as I am totally anti any sort of cosmetic surgery, and have always been of the opinion that we should just get on with what we've got...... Three months on, I have no regrets whatsoever that I made that decision and I could not be happier. I love my new shape, I love my new size and for someone who runs, skis, golfs, swims, cycles and competes in triathlons, it means I can now do all this without feeling uncomfortable, self concious and in pain. I am now not sure how I ever managed it before. I cannot thank Miles Banwell enough for his professional approach, and his kind and reassuring manner and of course his wonderful nurse Alex for all her help. Not forgetting Sarah and Mo who were always at the end of the phone to answer any questions or worries I had. I can only say a very big THANKYOU.

Knowing where to start with this review is hard as I cannot put in to words how I feel about the way Miles Banwell has transformed my life. Plucking up the courage to have breast surgery was one of the biggest and scariest decisions of my life and I believe fate has a large part to play in things. Had I had it done 10 years ago when I initially wanted it done, I wouldn't have found Miles.

When I first walked in to the consultation room I was scared beyond belief. Even my husband of 12 years had never seen my breasts, and here I was standing in front of a complete stranger baring all. I was hugely embarrassed but Miles and Alex (his Nurse at Spire Healthcare in Warley) put me at ease and he cracked the odd joke to lighten my mood! I admit, I was a tough crowd that day!

Miles took great care to explain everything that I could expect to happen if I proceeded and what I could expect in the future. I instantly trusted him and I knew he understood what a big deal this was for me and my ultimate happiness.

On the day of my surgery he was so kind and knew just how terrified I was, but I felt I was in a safe pair of hands and when you're trusting someone with your body in this way, that is the only feeling you want.

I am now 3 weeks on from my surgery and healing perfectly. The incisions he made we incredibly tiny and the stitches so perfect that I know the scars will barely be visible in the future. I honestly could not be happier with the outcome of my surgery.

I would also like to thank Sarah his PA, who is incredibly kind and has called me before and after surgery to make sure I am OK and has answered any questions that I may have had. Knowing you have someone on the end of the phone when you're worried is very reassuring.

Miles, if you read this I cannot thank you enough. I truly wanted to hug you today at my consultation because you will never know the gratitude I feel towards you. You have taken a broken soul and made it whole, and for that I will forever be eternally grateful. xx

Sarah is brilliant - professional, knowledgeable, honest, and kind. Exactly what Sarah told me would happen did happen, and I felt informed throughout. I'm very happy with the treatment, to the extent that I'm planning to have more done, funds permitting. The clinic is very clean and comfortable, and I cannot fault the service. I would recommend Attune.
