Patient Testimonial

“Mr Economides is clearly responsible for saving my life and that of my daughter Natasha. I had two difficult pregnancies; the first with cholesatis of the liver, which can be dangerous and required early delivery by elective caesarean section.

The second pregnancy i had what is known as a placenta previa and accreta, which led to haemorrhage and a month’s stay in hospital before my daughter’s birth. Mr Economides was entirely responsible for my care and keeping me going through that very difficult time and skilfully and safely delivered the baby during a very challenging operation under general anaesthetic where i had substantial blood loss (eight pints) and three blood transfusions.  Were it not for Mr Economides care and skill, it could have been a very different outcome and now i have a beautiful family. At all times i found Mr Economides to be loyal and caring and i could not have found a better obstetrician.”
