Mr Thomas Satyadas

Written by a patient at Manchester Royal Infirmary

I am a GP myself and i recently underwent complex gallbladder surgery at CMFT. Mr Satyadas was recommended to me by a friend who had worked with him so i knew he would be 'the best'. I had never met him before and when i did i found him to be a very kind, caring, funny and above all professional man. I felt totally safe in his hands and i knew he would look after me. My surgery was more complex then was expected but so he managed to leave me with very minimal scars from laparoscopy and i have made a full recovery. I doubt anyone else would have been able to do what he did laproscopically-he's a genius! I will be forever grateful for his wonderful care.

Never having been in hospital before I was very anxious both at the initial consultation and on admission. Mr Satyadas immediately put me at my ease, he listened to my concerns and I found his manner very reassuring. Surgery was straight forward and, having followed his advice to the letter, I have made a full recovery.

Mr Satyadas performed major surgery on me in August 2018 and this was a complete success. I thought Mr Satyadas clearly explained the procedure and gave me specific and detailed advice (on exercise and diet) to prepare for the operation, in order to minimise the risks and to aid recovery. The follow-up care was excellent, with Mr Satyadas visiting me in hospital every day and telephoning/texting me after I was discharged. In addition, my recovery has been much quicker than I expected, due to the high quality surgery and the advice I followed on how to prepare. (My GP recently noted that Mr Satyadas must be an excellent surgeon, based on how well and quickly I’d recovered from such major surgery.)

Following a recent spate of illness, I was diagnosed with gallstones, I was referred to Mr Satyadas, we discussed the issues & he explained the procedure to remove the gallbladder, very good, very efficient from start to finish. Seems a very caring person. My wife was contacted after my surgery by Mr Satyadas & he informed how the procedure went. He came to see me after the procedure & we had a discussion. Whilst nobody wants a procedure, if I had to have one again, I would hopefully meet a surgeon like Mr Satyadas, can’t recommend him enough.

A few weeks ago I was referred by my GP to Mr Satyadas at the BMI Alexandra Hospital. This was due to my having been diagnosed with gall stones which had caused me to suffer pancreatitis, hospitalising me in my local hospital in March 2018, and subsequently several very painful bouts of biliary colic, some of which necessitated emergency visits to my local A & E department. On meeting Mr Satyadas I was immediately impressed by his professional, calm manner. He explained clearly the condition from which I was suffering, that I needed to have my gall bladder removed, and his approach to dealing with it. I was completely at ease with him. He immediately made arrangements for the necessary tests and scans, all of which took place during the next two days (as an outpatient). Two weeks later I met with him again. He clearly explained the results, and said he wanted to operate on me the following week. One week later I attended the Alexandra Hospital for my pre-op assessment, and he carried out the operation two days after that. Shortly after completing the operation he phoned my partner to let her know that it had gone well; she found that very reassuring and considerate. Later that day he came to see me and again explained that everything had gone well. I spent that night at the Alexandra Hospital and went home the next day, having once again been visited by Mr Satyadas who gave me some detail of the operation and my previous condition. A follow-up meeting with him took place a month or so later in which he expressed his satisfaction that my wounds had healed well. Mr Satyadas inspires confidence in his patients. He is very friendly, highly professional in every way and communicates clearly. I highly recommend him.
