Dr Pritash Patel

Written by a private patient at Epsom General Hospital

I was very relieved to be given an appointment within a few days of contacting Dr Patel's office. I was reassured to sense that he was not at all puzzled by my symptoms in fact I think he mentioned the possibility of microscopic colitis at this first consultation, I liked his non-patronising, egalitarian manner and the fact that he did not query the presence of my granddaughter with me. I was glad that he performed both the gastroscopy and colonoscopy personally as I knew that he must be very experienced. His skill was such that I felt only slight discomfort and I was glad to have both procedures over in one day. I appreciated the fact that he came to tell me in the recovery room that he detected no internal bleeding nor cancer. The budesonide which he prescribed after examining the biopsies (only about ten days after the procedures) stopped the diarrhoea , which I had had for about a month, more or less immediately. I was at last able to eat normally. I appreciate the promptness with which I receive a copy of Dr Patel's letter to my GP after a consultation I wish I had consulted him earlier,

I have been seeing Dr Patel for around 8 years. During this time he has always been kind, attentive and thorough. I have had a total colectomy and suffer with adhesions in my bowels which sometimes cause blockages with severe pain. It doesn’t matter what time of day or night, Dr Patel always responds. I have suffered with ulcerative colitis since my early 20’s and have been looked after by 5 gastroenterologists during that time, none can measure up to Dr Patel. My husband and I consider ourselves extremely lucky to have found him.

I always find dr Patel amazing, he listens to any concerns and even manages to read between the lines since I’m not always good at disclose or discuss all symptoms. He is extremely professional and knowledgeable which makes you feel safe and seen. He understands the emotional as well as the physical sides of both the illness and what is going on around and I really appreciate his approach to both. I do always walk away calm. I can’t rate dr Patel abs his team highly enough - the team at Ashtead being amazing. Thank you
