After being diagnosed with a cancerous growth on my forehead by the NHS , I was still waiting for treatment six months later with the Consultant advising me not to worry about it, even though this lesion was growing at some speed. After being totally frustrated and stressed by the lack of interest and care afforded me during this time I felt I had no choice but to seek the help of a private dermatologist who advised me that he and no other dermatologist could help me as this lesion had grown too big and had to be treated by a plastic surgeon. I was so lucky to be referred to Mr. Sood who has proved what a sympathetic and extremely skilled surgeon he is. After seeing me he advised that this lesion definitely needed to be removed asap and pulled out every stop to get me booked into an operating theatre for him to remove same. I opted to have a local anaesthetic and remained await whilst he removed the lesion and performed a “flap” across the wound. During this course of treatment he regularly asked me if I was comfortable and if I was in any pain, and I was very pleased to be able to advise him that all was well. Before and after the operation Mr. Sood kept me fully informed of every step being taken and I had great trust in him. It is now 4 weeks since the lesion was removed and three weeks since the stitches were removed. I cannot believe how well the stitching has healed thanks to Mr. Sood’s excellent work. I have been advised by him, and shown the pathology report, which informs me that all the cancer has been removed and Mr. Sood has now signed me off with the assurance to contact him if necessary with any concerns . I can honestly say that I have received excellent treatment from Mr. Sood and would recommend him highly to anyone with similar problems.
