I was diagnosed with breast cancer and I elected to see Mr Giles Davies as a private patient at the New Victoria Hospital. I could not have made a better choice. Mr Davies is professional, knowledgeable and approachable. He took time to listen and address all my concerns and clearly explained the surgery options and potential follow-up treatments. As the surgeon, I was worried he would only consider the surgery, but he assured me all his patients have their treatment plans discussed by a multi-disciplinary team. Based on his advice, I chose to have a mastectomy with immediate breast reconstruction using my own body tissue ('tummy tuck'). This is a complex procedure requiring a plastic and breast cancer surgeon. Mr Davies recommended an excellent plastic surgeon and arranged the referral. The two surgeons successfully conducted the operation at the Royal Marsden Hospital (Chelsea). Even at the point of going under the general anaesthetic, Mr Davies was there to put me at my ease. After the operation, Mr Davies referred me to an oncologist for follow-up treatment which will be starting very soon. Of course, Mr Davies was not the only person who treated me, but he played a significant part by helping me make my decisions and seeing the whole process through from start to finish. Overall, I had a good and positive experience from an unwanted illness I had not expected. I have come through it and am pleased with the results of my surgery and looking forward to getting my life back.
