What can I say about Mr Alkhaffaf? I was diagnosed with Stage 3 Oesophagus and Stomach cancer in May 2015. I was absolutely terrified not only being diagnosed with cancer but in anticipation of the gruelling operation I would have to have. However, as soon as I met Mr Alkhaffaf he put me at ease. His easy yet confident manner made me feel that I was safe in his hands and he explained the operation and after care in Layman's terms. I came out of the initial consultation feeling reassured. After my 9 hour operation, he contacted my Mum direct from the operating theatre to reassure her all went well and she has never forgotten this personal touch and still speaks highly of Mr Alkhaffaf 5 years on. Whilst recovering in Hospital Mr Alkhaffaf came to see me on a regular basis, and also came in person to relay the histology results to me. I understand that he has also made strides to change how the operation takes place (key hole) and is always researching ground breaking ways to improve patients outcomes. His level of commitment to his patients is second to none. I cannot recommend Mr Alkhaffaf enough. A wonderful human and a fantastic Surgeon.
