Mr Nicola De' Liguori Carino 2021-01-24 Person 5 5 0

The first consultant I saw was Mr De'Liguori Carino. He provided me with a very careful explanation of the nature of the condition and treatment options. He was honest, understanding and very helpful. I then had a 6 month period of chemotherapy and radiotherapy following which I was again referred to Mr De'Ligouri Carino for possible irreversible electroporation (IRE) treatment. He saw me and very clearly carefully explained the procedure, what was known about its effectiveness, possible side effects and risks. It was a very sensitive and helpful consultation. I was admitted for the IRE treatment which was conducted so as to also permit other surgical procedures to take place if, on investigation, these were appropriate. In my case he was consequently able to perform a successful removal of a bile duct/pancreatic tumour. I was very, very fortunate to have been treated by Mr De’Ligouri Carino and to have received such high quality care from him. Even at the end of what must have been an exhausting day’s surgery (mine alone must have consumed several hours) he telephoned my family late in the evening to update them in detail on the outcome. We were all very grateful for his generosity with his time in doing this. Thank you very much for such excellent care and treatment.
