Mr Sunil Auplish 2018-07-02 Person 5 5 0

As far as I'm concerned, there aren't enough stars to rate this consultant! I gardened without gloves on for two minutes (BE WARNED!!) and managed to pick up an infection in my finger which developed into osteomyelitis. When another consultant recognised this, I was referred to Mr Auplish in York Hospital and he wasted no time in ordering an MRI scan , to be followed by an operation on the finger. This operation was then followed by 6 weeks of infusions of very strong antibiotics 4 times every day in the hospital. Things did go wrong but they weren't the fault of Mr Auplish. In all my dealings with him, he treated me as an adult, he gave me hope in the times when I had almost lost it and I felt all the time that he was on my side. He certainly went beyond what I expected coming in to see me on the ward on a day he didn't work at that hospital. Somehow, Mr Auplish builds up an instant relationship of trust with a patient, he is relaxed, empathetic and consummately professional and caring. He has a great team working with him. I am incredibly grateful for the care which Mr Aulpish gave me in such a difficult time.
