I have nothing but praise for the care and attention I received from Mr Siong Seng Liau, Consultant Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgeon at Addenbrooke's hospital in Cambridge. In July 2022 I had a huge liver cyst removed by him and his team. Mr Liau inspired enormous confidence by his calm and kindly demeanor, ability to explain very clearly and in detail what the results of the MRI scan indicated, exactly what the surgery would involve, and how long I would need for recuperation. The consultation was not rushed and all my queries and anxieties were dispelled by his clear precise and succinct answers about what was about to happen to me. This was very reassuring and helped me enormously during the comparatively short wait I had between the consultation and the surgery itself. Mr Liau's work is very neat. I have almost no scars- the largest incision in my navel will soon be completely gone - It seems to have been sewn with 'invisible mending' from the inside. Thank you. A follow up CT scan in a year has been arranged by him which is also reassuring and makes me feel very cared for. During surgery the team also noted possible signs of breast cancer which they alerted me to - The signs they noted are in fact due to something completely benign, but again this observation and attention to detail made me not only feel very cared for, but was a clear indication of how competent the team is under Mr Liau. My pain has disappeared and I feel a very lucky woman to have had Mr Liau as my surgeon.
