Having received a positive BRCA 2 diagnosis I met with Stuart Robertson to discuss my options, from that first meeting he filled me with confidence, he explained everything in such detail including the possibility of reducing my risk down to 5% with surgery. I was sent away to consider my options and to research the respected websites that he gave me returning 4 weeks later with a list of questions, each one answered fully and honestly. We met again some 8 weeks later and feeling fully informed and with his support I decided to have a double mastectomy with nipple sacrifice and smooth implant reconstruction. My operation was performed by this wonderful, caring and conscientious surgeon 12 days ago and I am feeling great and I am so very pleased with the outcome of the surgery. He visited me in hospital a few hours after my operation and again the following morning, I have seen him twice in clinic and have another appointment with him in two days time. I feel so well looked after. Mastectomy is a big decision and Stuart Robertson gave me the time to research and question my options, I never felt rushed into making a decision about the operation, the type of reconstruction or the type of implant. I am blessed to have him as my consultant and surgeon, his knowledge, surgical skills and wonderful kind, caring and patient demeanour have made this journey so much easier. Thank you Mr Robertson for making me still feel like me, I will be forever grateful to you.
