"Mr Pellen treated me for an incisional hernia via laparoscopic surgery. He was involved with the initial diagnosis and the decisions to be made as to the surgical options. He also carried out the operation itself. I can only say that I feel fortunate to have been referred to such a professional, competent and empathetic doctor. He took the time involved to explain potential alternatives in detail, and addressed all of my concerns and questions with great understanding and patience. On a personal level, he was very reassuring and confidence-inspiring, and I’m very grateful for the treatment I have received."

Mr Pellen is, without a doubt, the best doctor I have ever come into contact with in over 21 years experience as a patient with multiple health issues. He explained the problems with my gallbladder to me in a way that I could understand and answered the questions and concerns I had with a high level of knowledge. He also showed great patient understanding towards me in how different things can affect my condition and what medical advice can be hard to follow with the other health problems I have and also how this may impact me mentally. Mr Pellen demonstrated overall GI knowledge to an excellent standard when talking to him about my overall bowel health and surgery I have had. Ultimately, he took a huge weight off my shoulders, explaining pros and cons of my case and enabled me to feel empowered and in control of my care with his help going forward. I can't recommend him enough. Thank you!

I would fully recommend Mr Pellen if you would like hernia surgery. I had a completely wrong idea of surgery and was convinced that open surgery would give more room for the operation, I'm so glad that he explained to me that keyhole surgery was much preferable and that having room to work was not an issue. After the successful operation I had no pain and did not need any medication at all, surely that is the mark of a superb surgeon.

"Mr Pellen could not have handled the whole process any better, from initial consultation, to operation, and then follow-up consultation. I was kept fully informed throughout, concerns and questions listened to and answered in an understandable way. My operation was not straightforward, but the outcome was totally successful, and ultimately life changing. Would heartily recommend this consultant."

"Mr Pellen is an outstanding professional! He is kind, friendly, trustworthy and attentive, with very high standards of practise. The care I received during my illness and recovery was astounding to say the least. I felt listened to, understood and validated and a patient, whose life has been changed unbelievably by Mr Pellens skills and experience as a surgeon! From consultation to discharge, I received 5-star care and surgery that has solved many problems in my life, with a fresh start that does not involve pain, suffering and time off work! He has excellent personal skills, with a great approach to explanation to ensure I understood what was going to happen and if it was the right thing for me. I can not thank him enough for what he has done and the reassurance gained that I would be in safe hands if I ever needed his medical services again in the future."

"I had a gastric sleeve at the Spire Hospital in Hull with Mr Pellen. I returned today for my 1 year follow up. At every stage my care has been exemplary. He listened to my concerns and patiently answered any questions. I have been fully informed of all my results and communication with both myself and my GP has been prompt and clear. My life has changed immeasurably in the past 12 months. I have lost 93% of my excess weight. I am no longer at risk of dying young. I am eternally grateful for the help I have received from Mr Pellen. Highly recommended."

Mr Pellen is an absolutely incredible surgeon with the most wonderful bedside manner. His whole team couldn't have been more lovely and helpful throughout the whole process, with no question too small or silly to ask.
I had a laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair and this is the first time I have had keyhole surgery. Mr Pellen was excellent at the initial consultation and explained everything in a manner that I could understand. On the day of the procedure, he came to see me to talk through any last-minute concerns I may have and reassure me that everything will be fine. Once the procedure was over he came back again to check I was comfortable and let me know that everything went well and also what I should expect during my recovery.
A very professional experience from start to finish and can't recommend enough.

"I am on day 3 after my operation on my laparoscopic gastric band reconstruction which was done by Mr Pellen a first-class surgeon who made me feel at ease from our first meeting. He took the time to explain everything he had done to my band. I have got every faith in Mr Pellen and this lap band working so if anyone out there is thinking of getting weight loss surgery, Mr Pellen is the man to go see. He is such a talented gentleman and I cannot thank him enough for giving me a second chance with my band."
