Private excision surgery

[Hopeful112]

HiI have been looking into going private and I would love to know if anyone has been to see Mr Shaheen Khazali?

Hello Hopeful112, I haven't seen Mr Khazali, but I had private surgery in 2020 with a colleague of his called Mr Minas (they use to work together at St Peter's in Chertsey in CEMIG before he left the NHS) & he was amazing! So if Mr Khazali is anything like him you will be in great hands. They are so knowledgeable & empathetic. Good luck x

Thank you for your message Hoopy587 🌹if you dont mind me asking.. How are you endo wise since the op? I am looking into excision surgery but very scared due to POD and bowel involvement.

[Hoopy587 in reply to Hopeful112]

You're welcome 💛 So I had a very thorough surgery in 2020 & had endo removed from so many places including POD, bowel & bladder, & I lost an ovary & tube as they were so badly diseased. I was left with a small amount of endo on my diaphragm but felt really well after the op & for a few years. However for me this is the quickest it's returned after surgery (as I've had about 7) & I'm now waiting for a hysterectomy as I just cannot keep having surgeries or living in pain.

Having surgery is always a daunting experience, but personally for me it's has been a good option as I've always felt so much better once the endo get's removed & I've recovered.

I am sorry to hear about the hysterectomy but you are right you cannot live with being in pain all the time. It is such a horrid disease. 😔If you don't mind me asking how long where you pain free after the exicision x

Thank-you. Me too, but I think it will be the best option for me. It's a really awful disease & I wouldn't wish it on anyone! After my previous surgeries (some which were excision, some were just ablation) I would usually get about 5-7 years from my surgery, but only got about 2-years after my last one sadly, but Mr Minas did an amazing job! x

Well after your hysterectomy I wish a long and healthy life full of happiness ❤️ I am considering surgery with Dr khazali in London but will see what happens once I have the consultation next month.

Hi there, I have had excision surgery with Mr Khazali and he was brilliant, really thorough and his nursing team were amazing - in touch with me every day after surgery until I was fully on the mend - had no idea I would get such support.

Good afternoon SupertedscrappyHope you are doing well. Thank you for your message.

Did you see Dr Khazali when he was NHS or did you see him privately? X

[Supertedscrappy in reply to Hopeful112]

Hi Hopeful112, I saw him privately, but it was worth it.

[Hopeful112 in reply to Supertedscrappy]

That's great news xIf you don't mind me asking how are you pain wise did he do a thorough job?

[Supertedscrappy in reply to Hopeful112]

Hello, yes he was really thorough, cleared everything he could and my endo symptoms have been a lot better since the op. I saw his nutritionist as well and she has also helped hugely to recommend the best diet for endo.

That's amazing news. So glad for you wouldn't wish this horrid disease on anyone. I hope you have many good years ahead x
