Mr Andrew Morritt

Written by a patient at Royal Hallamshire Hospital

After being told that I needed a mastectomy, I decided that I wanted an immediate reconstruction and was interested in having a SIEA flap reconstruction. I was referred to Mr Morritt who instantly made me feel at ease and instilled me with confidence. He was very clear about what the procedure would entail, what outcome to expect and was honest about the complications that could arise. He spent as much time with me as I needed to enable me to make the decisions about my treatment, nothing was rushed; he made me feel as if I was the only patient he had at that time, and I know how busy he is. I feel very lucky that I am in Sheffield and have access to a surgeon like Mr Morritt as not every plastic surgeon can perform this operation. I cannot speak highly enough of his dedication to getting me the best outcome I could have. He spent hours in surgery and then came back in the early hours of the morning to ensure that I was OK. The first time I looked at the results of my reconstruction I was amazed, in my head I knew that I had had a mastectomy, but my eyes were telling me I hadn't!! The result was incredible and I will be eternally grateful to Mr Morritt. I don't underestimate the psychological effects of having breast cancer and having a mastectomy, but through Mr Morritts skill and care, I still have trouble thinking that any of that happened to me. I have to mention the breast care team at the Hallamshire and say how marvelous they all were. I do think that what helps that close team working is the respect and affection that the team have for Mr Morritt, the other surgeons and each other. If you have the good fortune to have Mr Morritt as your surgeon, you could not be in better hands.

I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Morritt when I was referred to him with a large lump on my chest after having an ultra sound and an MRI scan. When he entered the room he made you feel at ease with his friendly manner and big smile on his face. The lump turned out to be a lipo sarcoma and Dr. Morritt reassured me that he was confident it would all be removed with surgery . My surgery went ahead and even right up to me going down he explained everything they were going to do . My two follow up appointments I was reassured that all the cancer was removed. I would recommend Dr. Morritt to any one has he is a credit to his profession. I am very grateful to Dr.Morritt for what he has done for me .Yours sincerely Karen Bradshaw

I have recently had breast augmentation surgery performed by Mr Morrtit. He always kept me at ease by explaining each step of the surgery and making sure I was as comfortable as possible. The after care I have recieved has been brilliant and Mr Morrit has always answered any questions which I had as quickly as possible. The surgery which Mr Morrit has done is amazing, it really has changed my life and improved the confidence which I have with my body so much! I would highly recommend him to anyone.

In October '16 I attended the Hallamshire Hospital for the surgical removal of a basal carcinoma and a skin graft. I was filled with trepidation. Mr Morritt entered and immediately put me at ease, explaining the procedure I was about to undergo and the likely duration of it. Sensitively, he drew some personal information out of me appearing genuinely interested in my responses and drawing on them occasionally during the surgery and on my two follow-up appointments. He always smiles when engaging with a patient, unless he has dire news to impart, treats the patient as an intelligent human being with a personality and gives the impression that he is happy to be generous with his time. Above all, he inspires one with confidence in his knowledge and skills. I have no suggestions about how he could improve on 'excellence'. Mr Andrew Morritt is a prime example of the new breed of medic who relates well both to patients and to members of his medical team. Jennifer Mccracken
