Nakul Patel - Cosmetic Surgeon, Leicester Avis 

After having children and turning 40, I reached a point where I felt it was time to do something for myself and allow myself to feel truly happy and confident in my own body again.

I underwent a small breast reduction and uplift, liposuction and a tummy tuck, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with my decision and my results.

The care and attention I received from Nakhul throughout the process was incredible. He made me feel comfortable and reassured, and his secretary, Kristina, was absolutely fantastic at keeping in touch and maintaining communication throughout. I always felt supported and well looked after.

I have to admit, I underestimated just how difficult the recovery would be! It was tougher than I expected, and there were challenging days along the way. However, seeing the results has made every bit of it worthwhile. The results have made such a difference to my confidence that I would make the same choice again in a heartbeat!

I feel so much happier in myself, and something as simple as being able to wear tighter fitting clothes without feeling self-conscious about my tummy has made such a difference to how I feel.

I’m so grateful to Nakhul and Kristina for their care, support and professionalism. Thank you for helping me feel like the best version of myself again. I honestly couldn’t recommend them highly enough!

Mr Patel is a skillful surgeon with a very reassuring bedside manner. He has treated me with kindness and respect. After my bilateral breast reduction, I feel 35 years younger. My only regret is not doing this decades ago.

There are not enough stars to afford Mr Patel ...he is truly one in a million. An exceptional surgeon and wonderful human being. From the minute we 1st met at my consultation I knew I was in safe hands, he put myself & Husband at ease and reassured me I would be looked after. The best decision I have ever made; at what I can describe as the worst time in my life being diagnosed with a stage 2 cancerous melanoma early August. I am now recovering getting ready to return to work very soon. Would I recommend? ....most definitely 100%. Credit also has to go to his PA Kristina, she is completely on the ball and her communication is outstanding. She responds to all queries immediately taking the anxiety away from you. She definitely has you as a priority and you believe you are the only patient. A superb team who i dont think realise just how special they are.

I cannot recommend Mr Nakul Patel enough! From the very first consultation, I knew Mr Patel was the surgeon I wanted to go ahead with - I felt listened to, supported and in safe hands.
The level of care, professionalism and kindness shown at every stage throughout my Breast Reduction journey made such an impact. Fast forward 3 months and I'm beyond happy with my results, its completely life changing! The procedure has made such a positive difference to my confidence as well as eliminating back pain and soreness that I put up with for many years!
I couldn't be more thankful to Nakul and his team. I am now the best version of myself and can’t wait to experience wedding dress shopping, buying a whole new wardrobe and so much more!

Where do I start… Mr Patel has truly changed my life.

After undergoing breast asymmetry surgery at the age of 17 to correct one of my underdeveloped breasts, I knew from that moment that, when the time was right, I would have both breasts corrected.
Fast forward 14 years, after having my two children, I decided it was now or never. I spent a lot of time researching to find the right surgeon for me, and that’s where Mr Patel came into my life.

He has been absolutely amazing from start to finish. At my first consultation, he assessed my situation and explained that it wasn’t going to be as simple as I had initially hoped. He talked me through all of my options and even helped me find ways around the obstacles I faced along the way. Without his help, I honestly don’t think this would have been possible for me.

My first step was to undergo a bilateral mastopexy to correct the asymmetry of my breasts. I then had to allow six months for everything to heal, as recommended. Once I was fully healed, I was finally in a position to have my implants put in and achieve the shape and size I had always wanted.
I am more than happy with my results and cannot thank Mr Patel enough for taking on my complex case. He listened to me, supported me throughout the entire journey and, most importantly, helped me achieve something I had wanted for so many years.

For anyone considering breast enlargement, I honestly cannot recommend Mr Patel enough. From my experience, you will be in incredibly safe and caring hands.

Forever grateful.

I couldn’t recommend Nakul highly enough. He is absolutely amazing at what he does, as well as being incredibly professional, kind and caring. From the very beginning, he made me feel completely safe, comfortable and understood. He explained everything clearly, put me at ease throughout the whole process and genuinely made me feel that nothing was ever too much trouble.

I have healed amazingly well and my scar is so neat. His commitment to achieving the best possible result, including how the scar looks long term, is clear. He genuinely cares about his patients and the final outcome, and I’m so grateful for the care and reassurance he has given me throughout.

A wonderful and skilled surgeon. My daughter has required multiple facial surgeries and the results are incredible.

Mr Patel was great, he removed an active mole in my back, he was super approachable and friendly, his work was painless and neat, excellent communication all the way through the process. I can highly recommend

Facing melanoma was overwhelming, but Mr Patel made every step feel manageable. His empathy was genuine, his communication was clear, and his surgical skill was extraordinary. I felt safe and cared for throughout the entire process.

His PA, Kristina, deserves just as much recognition. She kept in touch regularly, answered every question I had, and made sure I never felt alone or unsure. Her support made a huge difference to my experience.

I cannot recommend Mr Patel and Kristina highly enough — they are a truly exceptional team

I'm just over two months post-op from a reconstructive abdominoplasty with Mr. Nakul Patel (plus an umbilical hernia repair by Mr. Neil Bhadwaj) at Nuffield Leicester, and I couldn't be happier with my care.

Mr. Patel was fantastic from the start; he took the time to answer all my questions and put me completely at ease about the procedure. The nursing staff on the day were so kind and attentive, and it was especially reassuring to know that one of the nurses had also been a patient of Mr. Patel's and was thrilled with her results. Thanks to Mr. Patel's incredible skill, my recovery has been smooth and has genuinely improved my quality of life. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him!

I am extremely pleased with my treatment and follow-up appointment. Mr Patel is a very professional and pleasant doctor who explained everything clearly. The treatment was painless and the cosmetic result was better than expected.

Dr Nakul Patel has been my surgeon for over 2 years now, and I can confidently say that he has positively impacted and changed my everyday life. From my first consultation to my most recent, Dr Patel has always remained extremely professional, intelligent and supportive. His positivity and confidence allowed me to fully trust his judgement even as a younger patient who was very nervous. Dr Patel helped me to truly establish my self esteem and become sure in my self.

Throughout my treatment, he has always taken time to listen to my concerns and thoughts. To add, Dr Patel always worked around my own big moments like exams and made sure that I was 100% comfortable with timelines and surgery. He allowed me time to think about what I definitely wanted and shared knowledge about each possible path I could have taken.

As a younger patient, Dr Nakul Patel made all the difference with his
reassurance, knowledge and genuine care. I am incredibly grateful forever, and I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone considering. I cannot emphasise the positive impact this has had on my life.

I recently underwent a procedure to have several moles removed from my face, and I couldn't be happier with the care and treatment I received from my Mr Patel.

From the initial consultation through to the procedure and follow-up appointments, I was treated with professionalism, kindness, and genuine care. Mr Patel took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all of my questions, and made me feel completely at ease throughout the process.

The procedure itself was carried out with great skill and attention to detail. Given that the moles were on my face, I was naturally concerned about scarring and cosmetic results, but the outcome has exceeded my expectations. The healing process has been smooth, and the results look excellent.

I would also like to praise the entire team, who were friendly, welcoming, and highly professional at every stage. Their support and reassurance made the experience far less stressful than I had anticipated.

I would have no hesitation in recommending this surgeon to anyone considering a similar procedure. Thank you for the outstanding care and excellent results.

My daughter had torn earlobe repair surgery with DR Patel through Nuffield Leicester and we had a fantastic experience

Mr Patel has been the most charming, reassuring caring healthcare professional I have ever met.
He has always treated me with dignity and respected my decisions and given me priceless guidance through my journey.
If anyone is reading this and undecisive about a breast reduction I hope this helps as I highly recommend it, it has changed my life and Mr Patel made this possible .

Very professional and friendly treatment at all stages - from initial consultation through operation day and post-op checks. Am delighted with results. Would highly recommend.

I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Patel. I am a lawyer specialising in medical law and was extremely picky about my doctors - I have seen far too many horror stories over the years in my professional life.

Mr Patel immediately put me at ease - he is extremely personable (a rarity for surgeons) and was available at any time to answer any questions. His secretary, Kristina, is also extremely responsive, helpful and professional. The whole process was seamless from start to finish.

I am very pleased with the results of my abdominoplasty - the scar line is incredibly neat and healing well. Equally, Mr Patel was frank and realistic with me about what could and could not be achieved. It is very easy for surgeons to offer you the world in the hope of securing your business, only for the result to be a disappointment. Mr Patel exceeded expectations. He clearly takes great pride in his work and is a perfectionist in all he does.

He also has a very thorough programme of aftercare, including regularly consultations in the months following surgery to ensure there are no complications.

In short, I would highly recommend Mr Patel.

When me and my wife first met Mr Patel to discuss removing excess skin above my eyes (Blepharoplasty), he reassured me of the concerns I had. He told me that I would be able to see much better and it would also look better, by opening up my eyes. He explained the procedure in detail. On the day of the surgery he came to see me before to make sure I was ok and again explain the procedure, which I found put me at ease. I went home the same day and at each visit back to see him he has always shown great care. I would have no doubt at all to recommend him. I am very pleased with my results I can see much better, and my eyes look better for it too.

Mr Patel is an excellent surgeon. I had a melanoma and lymph nodes removed and he explained all that would happen and reassured me of the process. The scars, although quite long are very tidy. His PA, Kristina is also excellent at managing all the admin and helping to resolve any non surgical issues.

Mr Nakul Patel performed my Abdominoplasty, liposuction and breast augmentation (lift/reduction) in February 2026.

From my first consultation with Mr Patel he has reassured me and put me at ease, no question or query has been to much and never dismissed. I also appreciated that he didn't sugar coat anything and told me straight what to expect instead of selling me a dream e.g what to expect during recovery, mobility and results etc.
My surgery was performed in Nuffield Leicester the hospital and staff were all amazing and Mr Patel checked in with me regularly during my stay. 5 days post op I was experiencing post op blues and Mr Patel called me out of working hours to speak to me for at least 40 mins and reassured me that what I was feeling was completely normal, he also got me booked in the next morning with a nurse for a once over to set my mind at rest, he went above and beyond when he is so busy and could have easily got someone else to call on his behalf.
I would recommend Mr Patel to anyone who is looking at having surgery he along with his team are all just outstanding.
I need to mention finally Mr Patels PA Kristina she is wonderful always fast at responding with answers to questions and booking follow up appointments.
