Mr Chakravorty instantly put me at my ease. He was thorough and reassuring throughout. I felt I had the best possible care.

I had an appointment at the breast clinic with Dr Chakravorty. The first thing he said to me was if I was comfortable with him doing the breast examination or not as there were no female doctors. I kindly declined that I am not comfortable. His reaction was highly rude and offensive. He accused me of being sexist, wasting precious NHS time and was shouting why my GP reffered me to this hospital as there are no female doctors at the breast clinic. He even said NHS is a free service and I cannot be picky.
He tried to pressurise me to have the examination from him by saying that he checks 3000 patients and that he he can check me and I can have the scan and be sent off quickly.
This behaviour was highly unprofessional, uncalled for and wrong.
I would NOT recommend this doctor to anyone. Instead of supporting the patient, he was demeaning my decision.

Response from Mr Arunmoy Chakravorty
I have had the opportunity to go through your feedback and reflected on your experience. There was no desire to upset any patient in our unit and we constantly get positive feedbacks from our patients. The NHS one stop breast clinic appointments are very precious and nearly all patients feel happy to go through the assessment, as all tests are done on the day. My sole aim was to highlight the value of these appointments as all the tests could have been done on the day itself and you could have been reassured, as you had put in effort and time to keep your appointment. We always have specialist and clinic nurses chaperoning during the examination. However, I felt that there was clear communication failure between the primary and secondary care as nothing was mentioned in the referral letter and we were not made aware of your preference of having a female clinician. I hope you have been referred to a unit where you could see a female clinician and got your problem sorted. Will be very happy to organise a meeting with team co-ordinator ,if you would like to discuss anything further. I am really sorry to hear about your experience and will definitely take it as a learning experience.

I cannot thank Mr Chakravorty enough for his skill, dedication and attention to detail and excellent result after my single breast reduction one month ago. This was undertaken for symmetry after he performed a SMX just over two years ago.
I would not hesitate in recommending him to anyone.
He is truly a miracle worker and truly deserves the award for the iwantgreatcare certificate of excellence 2024

I went to see Dr Chakravorty today after finding a lump in my right breast.
Any such appointment is daunting but Dr Chakravorty was kind, professional, efficient and immediately reassuring.
I cannot recommend him highly enough.

I saw Dr Chakravorty this morning. He put me at ease immediately and was very thorough in his approach. He was excellent at validating any concerns and was extremely helpful and forthcoming. Everything was clear and explained to me on an ongoing basis. I would strongly recommend his service.
