Reviews of Dr Richard Karoo

B. R.

Dr. Karoo and his whole team have been amazing from start to finish. I had a rhinoplasty with him and he made me feel relaxed and educated before having the surgery. On the day of my surgery he also visited me to discuss what would be happening and to put me at ease as well as the next day in recovery. I have had my post surgery check up with him as well which was a lovely experience as he is so enthusiastic and supportive. I am so pleased with my new nose and I'm not even 6 months post op. Honestly, it is so hard to find a trustworthy and talented surgeon who is also personable. I would recommend him and his team to anyone who was seeking cosmetic or necessary surgery because the whole experience has been a positive one!

Mr Karoo provides a first class service. Mr Karoo is not only a first class surgeon, he is a very caring and considerate individual. He always goes above and beyond to accommodate me, despite his busy and important schedule. I would highly recommend Mr Karoo for both surgical and aesthetic procedures.

After years of thinking about having rhinoplasty I finally went ahead and booked consultations with a few plastic surgeons but Dr Karoo was the best one out there. Both him and his team are very welcoming and their communication with me throughout has been amazing. When I had my first consultation with Dr Karoo I felt at ease straight away and he tells you what he thinks would be best for you and he explains it incredibly well. Ever since I’ve had my surgery I have felt little to no pain and the results are amazing, I’ve had a lot of people say that they can’t even see or notice any scarring which is what Dr Karoo aims for. I can’t thank him enough as my confidence and happiness has improved a lot since the surgery and my recovery. I highly recommend Dr Karoo if you are wanting anything done as both him and his team are incredibly helpful and open to talk about anything and do not pass on any judgment whatsoever.

Cannot thank Dr Karoo or his team at Cardiff and Newport enough. The before and aftercare has been brilliant. Dr Karoo made me feel so at ease and comfortable from the get go. The procedure was made to be as comfortable as possible and the end results are even better than I could have imagined. Highly recommend Dr Karoo for any procedure you wish you have.

I considered having breast augmentation for almost 10 years, but always put it off as I was anxious of what the end result would be. After reading a number of glowing reviews, I decided to book a consultation with Mr Karoo. He was kind, understanding and professional, immediately I felt comfortable and at ease. I decided to proceed with having the procedure done with Mr Karoo. I'm only 2 weeks post surgery and I can honestly say that it's the best decision I've ever made. Thank you Mr Karoo and all of your team at the Cardiff Clinic!

I can not thank Dr Richard Karoo enough for the amazing job he has done on my tummy tuck, he said he was looking forward to the challenge and He has totally transformed my life and given me the confidence Iv always wanted. I highly recommend him, such a caring doctor and laid back, any concerns just ask him and he puts your mind at ease. His assistant Zoe is always to hand if you have any concerns they will see you asap.

I couldn't be happier with my results. I had a rhinoplasty performed by Mr Karoo two months ago, and from my first consultation I was confident that I was in safe hands. He explained the procedure thoroughly so that I knew exactly what to expect in terms of the operation and recovery. After a cancelled operation due to covid-19, his team at The Cardiff Clinic were in regular contact with me to ensure that it was rescheduled as soon as possible at a date that was convenient to me. Having considered having it done for a long time, my only regret is not going to see Mr Karoo sooner.

L. G.

Couldn't ask for better. Made me feel so comfortable through the whole experience. Superb after care. Had uneven eyelids and wanted them to be evened out. They turned out way better than i could have ever imagined. Would recommend him to anyone.

I have wanted my surgery for 8 years, after many consultations and appointments with other surgeons I finally came across Mr Karoo, From start to end Mr Karoos and his team have been perfect! His team got me all booked in for an initial Consultation, As a busy person my diary is very full, so the team did everything they could to fit me in and work around me, arriving at Mr Karoo's office, I was greeted by a very lovely team who helped in every-way possible (Despite current circumstances - Covid-19), Then Meeting Mr Karoo himself I was blown away, unbelievably helpful and positive about the whole situation and gave me the exact advise and recommendations I needed, He wasn't at all pushy and even asked me to take some time to think over everything we had discussed and come back to him if I was still interested (Which went along way with me as so many other companies tried to get money out of me on the day) A few weeks later I was lucky enough to have the surgery, Mr Karoo was incredibly helpful on the build up and called many times to discuss and calm any nervs. the surgery itself was very organised and efficient, it went so well I was able to walk out the next day feeling very good and in much less pain that expected. Its now 6 weeks roughly since my surgery and Mr Karoo and his team have kept in touch and booked me in for multiple check ups to ensure i'm recovering at my best. To conclude this review, A message to anyone considering having any surgery, Mr Karoo and his team are not only affordable but very efficient and very helpful, I would personally 100% recommend them! Thanks to Mr Karoo & the team!

This review is from my mother in law who has not got access to put a review up herself - I have recently had my 6 week post op check up with Mr Karoo, who has done excellent job. I had a Breast reduction and a Tummy tuck performed at the same time. Pre and Post appointments with Mr Karoo was always professional and friendly and I was given excellent information at all times. During my recovery Mr Karoo arranged several check-up appointments to ensure my recovery was going to plan. To say I’m extremely happy with the outcome is an understatement. I refer to Mr Karoo as my super hero. My daughter had a breast reduction with Mr Karoo back 3 months ago and again received the excellent care and skills of this surgeon. My daughter in law has always had a nose procedure with him over a year ago with excellent results. I would highly recommend Mr Karoo for any surgical procedures. One happy family, so a big thank you Mr Karoo.

Mr Karoo is a genius in my opinion. Last year I had a tummy tuck and upper eyelid surgery and this year a facelift and breast reduction. The results have been quite incredible, very natural and with barely visible scarring. Mr Karoo will spend as much time with you as you need beforehand explaining the procedures and possible risks and he has a very warm, friendly and reassuring manner. The after-care is also exceptional with regular follow-ups and an invitation to return to see him any time should you have any concerns. His team of young ladies is lovely too and extremely efficient at responding to emails with any questions you may have. I feel very lucky indeed to have found this wonderful cosmetic surgeon and have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him and his highly professional team.

C. S.

An excellent experience from start to finish. Great communications, explanation, expected outcomes very clear, risks explained. Mr Karoo and his staff at Cardiff Clinic were a pleasure to deal with. I'm absolutely delighted with the outcome of my upper lid blepharoplasty and with the treatment, care and attention I received. I would highly recommend.

H. W.

I cannot rate the surgical skills, professionalism and artistry of Mr Karoo highly enough. Mr Karoo recently performed an upper lid Blepharoplasty upon me and thanks to his meticulous attention to detail and incredible microsurgical proficiency, I now have beautiful eyelids for the first time in my life. I look more awake and refreshed without looking surprised and ‘plastic’. I am beyond delighted with not only the surgical results, but with the package of care I received from Mr Karoo and The Cardiff Clinic Staff. Everyone I met and corresponded with were efficient and very pleasant. From the initial consultation Mr Karoo put myself and my husband (a Nurse and a Doctor) completely at ease. He was kind, courteous and extremely thorough in explaining the procedure, potential complications and realistic outcome expectations. The procedure was done under local anaesthetic, which although uncomfortable was less painful than a dental anaesthetic. Once the local took effect I felt no pain at all during the operation, which took less than an hour. Mr Karoo was quietly reassuring throughout, explaining just enough about what he was doing to keep me at ease. As soon as I sat up after the blepharoplasty I was given a mirror and I could immediately see an incredible difference. I had eye lids. I was delighted, and remain so. I was allowed home after 2 to 3 hours but found it reassuring to know Mr Karoo is contactable 24/7. I was given good after care advice, which I followed and other than the expected bruising, by Day 8, when Mr Karoo removed the sutures I looked remarkably fine and had no discomfort at all. His meticulous suturing has left me with a barely noticeable scar in the crease of my eye lids and I am not even 2 weeks post procedure as yet. I am so pleased that my research into Blepharoplasty surgery led me to Mr Karoo and The Cardiff Clinic. I doubt that you could find a more reasonably priced Plastic Surgeon of such skill, and I am absolutely certain you will not find a more truthful, caring, considerate and talented professional as Mr Karoo. I would, and will trust him implicitly with any and all surgical and non surgical procedures in the future, and have no hesitation in recommending him. I would like to end by saying a huge thank you to Mr Karoo and The Cardiff Clinic for providing me with such a safe and transformative experience. I am so so happy.

I first met Mr Karoo at an open evening last January (2019) at the Spire hospital, Cardiff. From the moment I met him I knew I could trust him as he is caring, honest and professional. As it was an open evening I only had a limited consultation but I didn't feel rushed at all and afterwards I booked that night to have a full consultation to talk about breast augmentation. This is a decision I have been thinking about since I was 16 but felt 22 was the right age. As I have quite a small frame Mr Karoo was very honest and realistic with the look I wanted to achieve. I had my surgery on August 2nd and I don't look back! I have had several follow up appointments afterwards and again he made me feel so relaxed and at ease that nothing was too much trouble. 100% recommend to anyone who is thinking of breast surgery.

I was looking to have a tummy tuck after loosing 6 and a half stone, I needed it. I had a lot of lose skin and had zero confidence. I booked a consultation in May with Mr Karoo after doing a lot of research. Walking into the consultation, he was polite, charming and extremely professional. He examined me and answered every question I had for him without hesitation. He was honest and straight forward with me. He advised I needed a extended tummy tuck with muscle repair. Whilst in the consultation I realised that he was the surgeon for me, he made me feel extremely comfortable and I already felt that I could trust him. We then looked at dates for possible surgery and luckily a cancellation had come up, so I was booked in for the 26th of June. Mr Karoo gave me ample time to pay for the surgery and from that point it was pretty straight forward, paying a deposit first, then the final amount was due three weeks before surgery. He ensured me, if I had any further questions, not to hesitate to give his office a call. I had a few routine appointments before hand to ensure that I was as healthy as I could be. Everything flowed really easily. Surgery date came, I was nervous but so excited. I got to the hospital for 7am and shortly after Mr Karoo came to my room and examined me, marked me up and at 9.30am it was my turn to head to theatre. I remember waking up from surgery, with very little pain, but I was happy. Within the hour of waking up Mr Karoo had come in to check up on me, to see how I was doing. He explained what he did throughout the operation. He expressed how happy he was with how the surgery went and he really did put me at ease. He then explained he would return in the morning to check in, which he did. He took me through everything step by step, about what I could and couldn’t do, and gave me some advice on how to heal. which really did ease my mind. The hospital and staff were great, I had an overnight stay and Mr Karoo returned in the morning. After taking a look, he was happy and made an appointment for the following week for bandages to be changed and to see how I was healing. He was happy for me to return home. I had weekly appointment for 6 weeks, then as I had no issues and healing extremely well it went to every fortnight. And at 12 weeks my next check up will be in January, at my 6 month post op. My first check up was when I got to see my new tummy for the first time, I was amazed. The scar was neat and tidy, and my tummy was flat. The second week I had a seroma (pocket of fluid) just above the scar, which Mr Karoo had previously informed me that it was common side effect, but without hesitation, he drained the fluid, without any pain. I was and continue to be extremely happy with my results. My overall experience has been amazing, at the highest standard, very professional and comfortable, this was all down to Mr Karoo. I feel incredibly lucky to have found Mr Karoo, he has completely changed my life more than he will ever know. My confidence is through the roof, I feel sexy, confident and so much more. I highly recommend Mr Karoo, to anyone looking for surgery. I ensure you, your in amazing hands! He will look after you as he did with me! Thank you Mr Karoo, I am forever grateful to you, you have truly given me my life back! I have never felt so good.

Richard Karoo instantly made me feel at ease from the first consultation, I knew I was set on having him do my breast augmentation. He kept me fully informed of what it was he was going to do and how he liked to keep everything in proportion and natural. I am only 10 days post op but already amazed at my results. His aftercare and how attentive he is to his patients is amazing, he really makes you feel comfortable and at ease. Absolutely no pressure at all. I cannot reccomend Richard highly enough.

A. M.

I cannot speak highly enough of Richard and his team. I felt instantly at ease and comfortable from my first meeting with him 3 years ago, and have been thrilled with the treatments and procedures I have undergone. Every consultation is conducted with Richard's calm diligent manner, and he always gives plenty of time and information before proceeding to surgery. A true professional, whom I have no hesitation in recommending to anyone.

K. B.

What a Fantastic Clinic, I came here for the first time and felt so welcomed by all the staff. I had been looking for the right clinic to visit that I could trust and after doing my research Richard Karoo was the person I chose to do treatment on myself. Richard was so helpful, honest and amazing. He really told me exactly what I needed to know from start to finish. Thank you so much for everything, I will be back again soon. Kelsey

Dr Karoo is amazing, not only is he so imformative but he is trasparent throughout the process and highly skilled. There was never a time I felt rushed or unsure of what to expect and always felt comfortable and at ease throughout all consultations and through the operations. (Theatre staff are amazing) The recocery support I also received from Dr Karoo and the staff, I cannot praise enough, they are outstanding and would recommend to my family and friends any time.

I'm a 58 year old woman, work hard, marriage, two children and at this point in my life finding Richard has given it a new lease. It started with the face lift which you would never be able to tell, just removed all that saggy skin, beyond over the moon with that procedure and I've gone on to have a few more procedures with him and it literally does give you a new lease of life and I am so glad I found him. Richard was recommended to me by another consultant, a Dermatologist when I asked him who is the best surgeon to use. I still pop by for some filler and Botox people are aghast when I tell them of the work I have had done. I never mind telling people as it is empowering. Throughly recommend.

a. h.
