I first see Mr Thomas at Southend Hospital, following a diagnosis of the BRCA2 cancer gene mutation, back in January 2021 At that time I was referred to Broomfields as the suggested pathway for me was bilateral preventative mastectomy with DIEP reconstruction. Fast forward to July 2023 after more than 2 years of worry, frustration, targets being moved and reconstruction options limiting my choices. I decided to go back to Mr Thomas, as my Onco breast surgeon. I made an appointment at the Wellesley. We spoke extensively about my journey and the changes to my options along the way. I had made a decision that the most important part of this journey was for me the risk reducing Mastectomy, I also needed to be able to move forward without constant worry. Mr Thomas listened, and actually heard all that I had said went through all the positives and negatives, being completely transparent with all the risks, as well asking me what I wanted, and explaining that this would be our planned preference for surgery, however he also talked me through things that could potentially change whilst in theatre so that I understood. I completely trusted him as did my husband. As I was his patient at Southend, he see me the following week at Southend hospital . My surgery was planned and a date given for September 2023. I had my bilateral mastectomy with immediate implant reconstruction on the 12/9/23 as a day surgery patient. Mr Syed assisted Mr Thomas. On the day of my surgery both Mr Thomas and Mr Syed asked me to explain in my own words what I was expecting from this surgery, in my mind this was to clarify and reassure me that we was all on the same page. My surgery went completely to plan. I was home same day, with 2 drains. I returned 3 days later drains were removed. Pain has been managed completely. I have been fortunate that so far my body has accepted the change and there has been no complications.I am seeing Mr Thomas regularly. He reassures me, answers all my questions and always gives me instruction on how to see him sooner if I have any problems. My care, by Mr Thomas has been exceptional both pre-surgery and post, and I feel extremely lucky that he did my surgery. I trust him completely and would recommend Mr Thomas to anyone in my position without hesitation.I have thanked Mr Thomas for giving me my life back personally, and would like to reiterate this sentiment, from my family and I , Thank you !

Recently diagnosed with Stage 1 Breast Cancer which when anyone is told that is life changing, Mr Thomas took time to explain my options, prognosis and treatments available clearly, honestly and factually. He was very reassuring and positive. He answered all my questions and addressed any fears I had without making me feel foolish, Mr Thomas has a great understanding and wealth of knowledge about this subject which gave me the confidence to trust him completely on all stages of my treatment. He was always available to answer any questions and concerns following on from the surgeries or the appointments I had or anything else that maybe causing me to worry. I could not have wished for a better person to help me through my diagnosis, surgery and treatment plan.
