Mr Sharma changed my life and I will never be able to express the gratitude I have for him. In August 2020 I had emergency Subtotal colectomy (removed my colon) due to ulcerative colitis at Preston hospital with a different surgeon. I decided that I would go for reversal surgery which is two operations to have a j pouch created and then reconnected. I decided that I wanted to go private and Mr Sharma was the surgeon I trusted. So in June 2021 I went for it! From the first consultation, I instantly felt at ease, he is a lovely, warm and kind person. My first operation went very well. He came to see me daily and sometimes twice a day. The care that Spire Manchester provided was also fantastic. For the following month I did have a few complications. This was due to my small intestines that kept ‘kinking’. This was nothing to do with Sharma’s work but my bodies reaction to surgery with a new stoma. Mr Sharma reacted efficiently when I came back to Hopsital and admitted me back to the ward. He came to see me daily, again, sometimes twice and even on his days off. He decided that it was best to bring my reconnection surgery forward and that’s what we did. I am now over 1 year into being reconnected to my j pouch, and all I can say is that he has changed my life. I often hear of people having various troubles with J Pouches, but Mr Sharma uses certain techniques that he has learnt from working in different areas of the world which has means that my j pouch is up there with the very best. I go to the toilet 5 times in 24 hours and I don’t have any urgency at all. Mr Sharma is the most highly skilled medic I have ever met. And to top it off, the kindest and most gentle too. I would trust him with my life and I am eternally grateful for him. Thanks Mr Sharma, C x
