Due to Mr Hopkins intervention i was able to eat and drink,the operation was successful and and i was allowed home after five days . I found that Mr Hopkins gave me a very informed detail of the operation i was going to have and information on how the operation went,he also provided me with a comprehensive plan for post operation diet taking a lot of guess work out of what I need to eat and the timescale of each tier which was very appreciated.

After many days investigations in April and constant updating from Mr Hopkins which I appriciated very much (I may not have shown it) finally I was told I hade a large cyst on my spleen.Mr Hopkins decided on a planned elective slplenectomy for 10th of may 2019 as the best way forward.
I was sent home under the care of the Hospital at home service. On the 10th May I had my spleen removed
Mr Hopkins took the time to explain each and every detail about the procedure and put me at ease
I wish to thank him and his team and would have no hesitation recommending Mr Hopkins along with the care at home team
