Dear Sonja, my thanks to you for the way in which you looked after me and to say that I am very pleased with the outcome following surgery on my face – the wound has healed well and with some light make-up for coverage during the day it can hardly be seen – I am absolutely delighted.

I feel so grateful to you and your colleagues for your skillful surgical treatment. What a wonderful example of surgical technique. I’m delighted to report that my hand has greatly improved and I’m playing the piano again with great pleasure!

Dear Sonja, thank you for your openess in helping me, your kindness and your time – and for the occasional joke in the operating room to calm my nerves. I have infinate gratitude for all your support.

I really wanted to thank you for sorting my son’s problem so efficiently. Wound has healed beautifully too. I am so grateful for your immediate action after many days wasted at various hospitals

I had reached a point where the Dupyutren’s contracture in the third finger on my right hand had bent and locked to 60-70 degrees. Finger deformity began to seriously impact upon my ability to do my job and to carry out ordinary everyday tasks.I was facing the end of my career as a performing pianist / musical director and conductor.

Following initial consultation with Miss Cerovac at St. George’s my surgery was conducted in early June 2017. By August after diligently following the rehabilitation program expertly provided to me by the surgery staff I was able to play the piano again and by September I was back touring the world as a professional musician.

I cannot overstate the transformative nature of this surgery. On every level both professionally and personally it has changed my life. On account of the efforts and skill of Miss Cerovac alongside the support of her team I am still able to work in the job I love. Thank you.

I 68 years old and a cabinet maker, I amputated my thumb in a workshop accident in January 2017. I was immediately taken to St Georges, where, about three hours later, Ms Cerovac and her team commenced replanting my thumb. The care I received in all departments at St George’s was exemplary both during my stay and since in after care. I feel that the care and attention given to me greatly enhanced my positive attitude towards recovery. I started back to work in a small way within weeks and now I am operating full time as normal, and while working I rarely notice that I have damaged my thumb. Just recently I have begun to be able to fasten my shoelaces and shirt buttons. I am also able to play my Northumberland smallpipes, much to the disappointment of my family. I am extremely grateful to have had my thumb re attached and eternally grateful to Ms Cerovac for agreeing to do it.
