Mr Neil Roberts 2016-11-04 Person 5 5 0

I was transfered as an emergentcy from the London Royal Hospital to St Bartholemews having suffered a heart attack in a street near St Pauls Catherdral. This was approx 1300hrs on Sunday the 11/10/16, I awoke in St Barts on Monday the 12/10/16 in the afternoon, having undergone a triple heart bypass graft operation. I was visited by Dr Neil Roberts and members of his team shorty after in the ward, he explained what had taken place in a very calming and reassuring fashion, and it soon became apparent how highly respected Mr Roberts is in this field of life saving surgery. I had no time to dwell or worry about an upcoming heart operation, having collapsed in the street, what I would say is if you are awaiting heart surgery there is no one better to carry out this medical procedure than Neil Roberts, and his great team. I spent just 5 days in total in St barts before discharge, I had very little pain, even after the pain killers had worn off, the insisions in my leg to remove a vein, and that in my chest was extremely neat and will in time be bearly visible. All the staff I came into contact at St barts spoke very highly of Mr Roberts. as a Surgeon who seeks perfection, not only from himself but all who work alongside him. The after care has been second to none, and the facility to contact him or his team by email following any concerns is very reassuring, especially has I live some distance away in Devon. I feel very lucky indeed to have been in London when I was taken ill, and treated to 1st class treatment at St Barts by a highly rated surgeon as Neil Roberts and his great team. Thank you so much.
