Mr Dave is a really kind man, I was very scared when diagnosed with breast cancer but he reassured me totally. He explained what was going to happen very clearly, gave me time to take it in and answered all my questions. Everything happened as he said they would and now I am on the road to recovery all thanks to him.

A very caring and very experience surgeon that gave me my normal life back after successfully removing a rogue parathyroid gland that had made my health and life miserable for about ten months.

Mr Dave has been my surgeon and breast cancer consultant since January 2020. He is also an endocrinology consultant and has supported me during parathyroid issues.
Mr Dave shows excellent professional demeanour and clinical knowledge. He takes time to answer questions thoroughly and meticulously. He is clearly aware of current studies and trends in his areas of expertise and is generous in his ability to translate and share them with his patients. He is realistic in outlook and I have no doubt that he delivers the highest standardd of care to all his patients.
He is efficient and has always done what he's said he wll do.

I really want to convey how much I respect and value Mr.Dave.
In these terribly stressful times it is so hard being a patient and a doctor.
Despite the risks Mr Dave definitely puts his patients first.
From the start I found him to be so approachable (which to me is very important) and welcoming.
I immediately felt that I was being listened to and cared for and felt safe and reassured.
He successfully removed my tumour and has always explained the next steps with utmost clarity and utmost consideration.
I am very grateful that I have Mr. Dave as my consultant.
Nothing is too much trouble for him and I think he is a brilliant doctor.
Thank you so much Mr.Dave
