Dr Adejuwon is clearly a dedicated and personable human being working in a challenging profession which he clearly loves. Goodness knows how he does it. He made me feel very comfortable and free to ‘open up’ about my particular medical concerns. He listened attentively having no referral to work from (compliment) as far as I am aware, although I had been referred (I think Dr Adejuwon’s electronic comms had malfunctioned for a short while), and Dr Adejuwon undertook simple ‘diagnostics’ gently verbally and through touch leading me through what I needed to do to help him understand my condition. I of course trust Dr Adejuwan’s support and judgement as a consultant. Following an MRI scan immediately afterwards (I feel so fortunate), which I asked for and he backed me up, he was able to re-affirm his initial prognosis at my next appointment the following working day in MRI results ‘graphic detail’. It was fascinating for me to be provided a brief insight into another part of my interior when ironically to me three billionaires and their dedicated teams are so busy delivering early commercially backed success in exploring far further afield (space). One point which made me laugh was that the chaps giving me the MRI scan asked if I was claustrophobic. That was sensible given the 'clever tube' they then put you in. I had trouble staying still in the scanner not only because of a spot of pain (why I was in the blessed thing in the first place) but because what they didn’t tell me about was the incredible noise. I was almost crying with the absurdity however stuck at it. The varying loud dull magnetic generated noises were like something out of a 1960s Sci Fi movie rather than our marvelous modern technology including the scanner output I was able to see later with Dr Adejuwon. I did wonder why they asked me to put ‘ear mufflers’ on. Might be best to warn less ‘up for it’/able folk about that one. All in all, although I got a prognosis which I did not wish to receive I did ‘asked for it’ (so my choice) and it was delivered with care by Dr Adejuwon, as well as the options ahead of me to contain matters. Pretty standard stuff for an ol’ ‘fitty’ like me now in my 60s (it’s called I understand ‘life’) but still not pleasant to hear. So a big thank you.
