Mr Jonathan Bernstein MD FRCS 2018-09-13 Person 5 5 0

I can’t recommend and thank Mr Bernstein enough. Like other comments here, he was very personable and patient and took time to explain my diagnosis (thyroid cancer). My first procedure was to have a thyroidectomy (remove half of the thyroid where the growth was present) and which Mr Bernstein arranged quickly and conducted very professionally so it was like a routine procedure and I made a quick recovery. The subsequent histology meant that I needed to have the remaining thyroid removed and due to another condition, I also required surgery in an adjacent area to remove and replace a degenerated disc in my neck. This other procedure required a neuro-surgeon. The great thing for me was that Mr Bernstein agreed to conduct the thyroid surgeon alongside the neuro-surgeon at another hospital - for me the benefit was obvious - two procedures but only one operation and one anaesthetic and one recovery. Mr Bernstein made the time to go the hospital just for my procedure and stayed on until 10.30pm that evening to wait for me to wake in recovery and then returned at 6am the following morning! Suffice to say the single operation went very well and I have recovered quickly with no issues. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him, the team and staff at the Marsden were also magnificent.
