Here are some reviews about Mr Ajeet Kumar:

"Had a hip replacement operation on 7/11 with Mr Ajeet Kumar. I am extremely happy with the outcome and so happy to be pain free. My experience with your hospital was excellent.  All staff were very helpful, professional and kind. Mr Kumar was very pleasant to deal with and put me at ease prior to the operation.  Highly recommend him for anyone looking to have the same procedure. Thank you all."
