“From the moment we met Dr Kush, I couldn't have been happier with the care we received. He has a wonderful way with both children and parents, taking the time during our first consultation to direct questions not only to me but also to my son, ensuring he felt included and valued throughout the process.

Dr Kush has an exceptional ability to put families at ease when facing what can be a very worrying and intimidating situation. From the initial consultation, through the procedure itself, and during the aftercare, I always felt listened to, supported, and genuinely cared for.

Most importantly, he made sure my son felt seen, heard, and involved every step of the way, which meant so much to us as parents. His professionalism, compassion, and patient-centred approach are truly outstanding, and we are incredibly grateful for the care he provided."
