Testimonial
The procedure itself was incredible. On a day, I was given local anasthetic and I did not feel a thing through the whole procedure. I was fully awake, and even laughed at few jokes. The nurses and Dr Nigel Hackings were absolutely amazing during the whole procedure. About twenty minutes later, its was all finished. All 15 fibroids have been successfully embolised.
