Reviews
Very happy with treatment
Many thanks for leaving the review, it is very appreciated
Mr Drake has performed several challenging operations on my face.
Recently I had a skin flap on the side of my nose. He did an excellent job and it has healed very well and hardly visible. He has also removed BCCs on my temple and behind my ear.
Mr Drake is very kind and reassuring and explains the procedure. I was happy for photos to be taken to help in future student doctor training. He even came to have a look after the dressings were taken off to see how it was healing.
I have had a follow up letter with the results and the BCCs were fully excised.
I have been completely satisfied and see no need for improvements.
I have regular check ups as I had a melanoma on my cheek a in 2017.
Thank you for such a thorough and informative review. I hope you are recovering well.
Dr Drake was kind ,considerate, and brilliant, right from the start his team put me at
ease, which isn't easy at my age, no I cannot make any suggestion of improvement, they couldn't have been better. I felt relaxed and confident at all times, and I'm 96 years of age, I would like to thank Mr Drake and his team for such consideration, and understanding in one so old, yes I'm healing well, thanks to his epertease.
The treatment was excellent from Mr Drake and the assistant nurses. My carcinoma is healing very well. Judith Billingham
I had excellent supportive professional and dedicated care throughout the whole process including surgery from Mr Drake and I have not got the words to express my gratitude to the team and the NHS for the treatment I have benefitted from.
Due to the pandemic I had the cancer sometime but once the referal was made everything was impressively swift.The wonderful dermatoligist I saw showed care and thought in refering me for the appropriate treatment needed with Mr Drake and I am truly grateful to both her knowledge and expertise and judgement in who it would be appropriate to refer me to .My concerns were listened to with understanding and were responded to with consideration.Mr Drake and his team were excellent- he is an excellent skilled surgeon and I have healed well after the operation -with a much better result than I was expecting -which is of course due to his skill.
Ihope management appreciates what a good team of dedicated professionals you have there at Elm Grove.
Many thanks for taking the time to leave such a kind, thoughtful review. I'm glad you had such a good experience and wish you all the best.
