Reviews
Mr Bishay worked on my Mom with several ops. One lobectomy. 1 wedge from right lung and then lasered 1 off her windpipe. We were told in begining she would never be cancer free. She was and was free for 5 years. We will be forever in his debt for what he did for her. He was always polite, got time for any questions we had and gave answers. I am Jeans daughter
This man and his team literally saved my life.
A very complicated operation to remove a tumer that was touching my oesophagus and gullet and they got it all out without damaging anything around it.
Mr E Bishay is an amazing consultant, he explained everything about the operation I needed so clearly, listened to me, I thought he was genuinely caring of me as a person as well as a patient. I felt so comfortable with him, he is such a kind man. His intelligence and expertise shines through, but he is also a sensible man and aware of others, in other words he has empathy and sensitivity. It is frightening as a patient to hear you must have major surgery for lung cancer, but should you find yourself in the same situation you will be in totally reliable and trustworthy hands with Mr Bishay as your consultant. My cancer has been completely cured by the operation, and I will be eternally grateful to him. A lovely gentleman.
Mr Bishay quite literally rescued me from the NHS and saved life in the Priory Hospital In Birmingham. Throughout my treatment he could not have been more professional, attentive and caring often visiting or contacting me late in the evening and at weekends ( both in hospital and during recovery from my major thoracic operation). If only all such consultants could perform to his highest ethical and professional standards.
Mr Bishay talked me through my procedure step by step and was very patient with all the questions that I had for him. I felt totally put at ease and I couldn’t of asked for a more attentive surgeon/consultant. A true gentleman.
