I was taken into Salford Royal Hospital suddenly after a scan showed I had a large tumour in the back of my head. Dr Pathmanaban took over my case after the previously scheduled Consultant told me that Dr Pathmanaban specialised in the type of Neurosurgery I needed. He came to see me on my ward & although I had noted down a large number of questions to ask him he managed to answer nearly all of them before I had the chance to ask them. He explained each aspect of the surgery both during & after , making sure both myself & my husband fully understood what was going to happen. On the morning of my surgery he came into the anesthetic room to say hello & ask if i was ok? This really put me at ease & it really showed that whilst he is very professional, he also has a very caring quality too. After the surgery he told me that he had managed to remove all of the tumour even though he had previously explained that due to the difficult position this may not be possible without risking further complications, this clearly shows his skills & expertise. I would fully recommend Dr Pathmanaban as a surgeon as he exceeded my expectations of a Consultant/ patient rapport & more importantly the overall outcome.
