I was referred to Dr Mohammed after various examinations and investigations by Gastroenterology to determine reason for unexplained weight loss, change in bowel habits and persistent and increasing tiredness. At our first meeting I was impressed by his friendly but professional manner. I was also impressed that he treated me as a reasonably intelligent adult (not always the case!) After the initial consultation he referred me for an abdominal scan and a special blood test (short Synacthen test). Both these were arranged in short order and two days after the scan he called me in to his office and told me the radiologist had found a large "mass" on my right kidney. He was straightforward with the information but also kind, understanding and supportive. He referred me immediately to a Urologist who I saw within 10 days and I am having a radical nephrectomy tomorrow at Castle Hill Hospital, Hull. I have been investigated with regards to my symptoms over about 6 months. Everyone I have come in to contact with at HEY have been excellent and I feel I have had great and very speedy care. However, Dr Mohammed has been especially kind and helpful at what you can imagine is a difficult time. I especially appreciate that he took the time to see me at short notice, give me the news in person and then had time to discuss any issues and listen to my concern. He could have simply picked up the phone and called me with the news; but no, he took the time and effort to speak to me face to face and treat me with care and consideration - for this I am very, very grateful. I am now under the care of the urologist and may not meet Dr Mohammed again but I want to place on record my thanks and appreciation for going that little bit extra for me.
