Mr John Loy

Written by a patient at Royal Shrewsbury Hospital

Having met Mr. Loy a number of times, he always comes across as a very amiable and approachable person. As a patient I have found his knowledge of bariatric surgery and his enthusiasm of the positive outcomes that can achieved as a result of this surgery, instilled in me the confidence that this procedure was the correct choice for me. Mr. Loy visited me on the ward the day after surgery and explained what he had done and what to expect over the next few days. I was given ample time to ask as many questions as I wanted. All were answered with great care, no matter how stupid or insignificant they may have appeared. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Loy to other prospective patients and I consider myself lucky to be under his care.

From the moment I met Mr Loy I immediately felt at ease. He makes you feel relaxed, is completely open and honest knows his stuff. I even emailed him prior to my surgery with questions in which he replied straightaway with the reassurance that made my approaching surgery would go smoothly and according to plan. He advised me in preparation and answered every question and concern i had. He Listened! My surgery was 14th October 2015 and was for a Gastric bypass and also an umbilical hernia repair. He came a met me prior to surgery as i was very nervous as you would expect and we laughed and joked and by the time he left I felt great with nothing to worry about. My surgery went exactly as he said it would and he came to see me straight after surgery and again when I went on to the ward. I was in for 2 days and i saw him each day, again I had questions and each time he stopped and advised and reassured me. He was there for as long as I needed. A truly truly nice guy, an absolute genius in the work which he carries out and for anyone else having this surgery, if you get told Mr Loy is your surgeon then count yourself very lucky. There is no-one better! I am now 5 days post op and feeling great! I owe this man everything and am eternally grateful for the second chance he has given me. His medical team are also amazing as are the rest of the nurses and staff at Shrewsbury hospital. Nothing I write in this review will do justice to this man and his team. Thank you!

Mr Loy operated on me in September ( Laparoscopic Incisional Hernia Repair). From my first meeting with Mr Loy he took time to thoroughly explain the procedure and put me at ease. This meeting, and his kind, considerate manner, gave me great confidence that all would go well. On the day of the operation, he again was very keen to ensure that I had no worries in a very considerate manner. He carefully explained some of the sensations I might feel after the operation. He also assured me that I could call him if I had any problems. I cannot think that you could find a better, more considerate surgeon. I count myself very lucky that he was the person who did my op!!!!

Extremely caring and helpful - showed great concern and was very persistent in letting me know histology results by telephoning me on holiday in Spain ! My stay in hospital was much more comfortable as I felt so confident with my care and recovery- thanks so much !!! No need to make constructive suggestions about improving care as it was the best it could be !!! Thankyou Sheila
