I would thoroughly recommend Mr Amen. He is kind, caring, considerate, good at what he does and he really listens. He immediately put me at ease, and, unlike, the several doctors I had seen before him, managed to very quickly identify and resolve the issue I had. I felt in very capable hands and really appreciated his expert knowledge alongside his friendly and professional manner. If only more doctors could be like him!

Excellent clinician. Kind and safe in his communication and actions. I felt very lucky that NHS has such a competent clinician in the local hospital. Thank you.

I was really nervous going in for my first operation and Mr Amen really put me at ease when he introduced himself to me. He reassured me that he had carried out this procedure so many times which made me feel a lot better! When I woke up my neck line was so neat and it has healed so neat! I never thought I could be happy about a mark on my body but I’m happy to say that when it heals properly you will barely see it!

I had not met Mr Amen prior to the day of my thyroidectomy surgery but, pre-surgery, I was immediately struck by his calm, confident and reassuring demeanour. He explained the procedure comprehensively, was not rushed and answered all my questions. Any surgery is a daunting prospect and the surgeon/patient bond as trust is key to eliminating any anxieties one might be feeling. Mr Amen was there for me for post operation checks and conversation too and, all thanks to him, I am most grateful for how good I am feeling. I would recommend him wholeheartedly.

Mr Amen was my consultant for thyroid surgery. The surgery went very well, and he was thorough in explaining the post-surgery expectations. Peterborough City hospital as a whole has gave me extremely good care in the time I lived there.
