Mr Nicholas Drinnan

Written by a NHS patient at Royal Surrey County Hospital

Mr Drinnan very kindly rang me with an update subsequent to a Renal MDT where my case was discussed. I was most impressed by the top class care I have been fortunate to experience and have found Mr Drinnan to be very thorough, perceptive and understanding. He explained my situation very clearly. We talked through the different courses of action open to me and I feel confident that I am receiving the best possible attention. Thank you,

Mr Drinnan’s care throughout my recent operation and outpatients was exemplary.As a medical practitioner myself; he had all the qualities that I hope I had when practicing. Everything was explained in a simple manner and at no time did I feel pressured by time. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to friends.

I found Mr Drinnan to be a consummate professional. He is friendly, welcoming and comforting with a knack for putting you at your ease. His explanations are clear and comprehensive - everything you could ask for in a medical professional. The physical examination was done with sensitivity, in line with the entire consultation.

I had an appointment with Dr Drinnan on 15/01/25 at the Stokes Centre, Royal Surrey County Hospital. I was very impressed on the way he listened, grasped the facts clearly, had my CT scan available, offered his diagnosis and came up with what I hope will be the solution. His approach in being prepared to take up my queries demonstrated his confidence and in my experience a refreshing attitude which is not always shown by other medical consultants. The bottom line, would I request his advice again - Yes I certainly would.

I visited Mr Drinnan at the RSCH in Guildford as an outpatient for a follow up having had treatment as an in-patient at RSCH. I had a flare-up of vasculitis. The appointment ran to time and Mr Drinnan was very friendly and confidence inspiring. He was very knowledgeable and thorough with his assessment of the problem. He was very realistic about what may be wrong and how we should go forward considering I live outside the RSCH area and was on a visit to Surrey. The problem has since largely cleared up but I will follow his advice in attending an appointment with a specialist in my home area. Overall very pleased with the help I received
