I had Grave’s disease for eight years before the endocrinologist recommended thyroidectomy which is when I was referred to Mr Christakis at Nottingham City hospital. The procedure and associated risks were clearly explained to me by Mr Christakis and my queries were all adequately addressed, so I decided to proceed with the surgery (as a private patient at the BMI Park Hospital). Despite being informed that surgery to remove the thyroid gland had been quite challenging I needed just one night at the Park Hospital and was admitted/discharged within a period of 24 hours. I am left with a small scar which is fading & I expect will become inconspicuous over time (surgery was only a couple of months ago). Really pleased I had the surgery and hope that I can start to lose the weight gained after years of treatment with carbimazole once my thyroxine dose is optimised. Would highly recommend Mr Christakis to anyone going down the same route as me.
