Reviews
Very worried was put at ease by Miss Patel. Examination was thorough and tests still to come. very satisfied.
I have been very impressed by Miss Patel and her team at Barrow in Furness Hospital. I could hear how she dealt with my colonoscopy and had no hesitation in accepting her suggestion of having a major operation. Nursing care has been excellent and the extensive locally prepared documentation has kept me well informed of what to expect. Suzanne Thompson, the colorectal nurse specialist, has been very helpful.
Miss Patel has been my consultant for over 8yrs. On the day we first met, she arranged an immediate test and quickly diagnosed colorectal cancer. She has looked after me ever since including travelling to Basingstoke to assist with my surgery. She is a true professional and very thorough. I have no hesitation in recommending her.
i attended furness general hospital today for a colonoscopy carried out by miss patel. i had excellent care, miss patel explained everything to me and the information was very clear.
I was diagnosed with bowel cancer in September 2007 and Ms Patel removed a tumour from large bowel (sigmoid colectomy). The surgery was a success and I was kept informed all of the time as to my progress and future treatment. Unfortunately a secondary tumour developed on my right ling in 2011 but Ms Patel spotted it quickly and immediately referred me to Blackpool Victoria to receive the treatment I needed. Five years after my lung surgery, I been discharged from her care. Quite simply Ms Patel has saved my life and I can't thank her, her team, all at Furness General Hospital and my colerectal nurse, Suzanne Thompson, enough for their care and professionalism over the last nine years.
