I had my gastric bypass surgery 23rd February 2018 at Darlington memorial hospital by Mr Toumi. Prior to surgery Mr Toumi was always very thorough in explaining everything to me, answering any questions I had, and also listening to me &I my reasons why I wanted the gastric bypass over the gastric sleeve after I had done my extensive reasearch. He then gave me his opinion on which surgery he felt would be better but ultimately we came to the decision together. The morning of my surgery I met with Mr Toumi Again and again we went over the operation etc and made sure he was happy and I was happy. Mr Toumi came to see me after my surgery once I was back on the Ward &I he personally rang my mobile everyday whilst I was on the Ward to speak to me, after I got discharged on the Monday I then got re admitted due to an infection ( nothing to do with Mr T) but he came to see me on the Tuesday Morning, had me sent for scans and tests straight away. He then made sure the Ward spoke to home before anything was given to me etc. Again ringing me personally, popping in to see me, etc. Since my surgery he has been a tower of strength, always so proud of his patients, always caring and attentive and seriously, Genuinely wants the best for his patients. Mr Toumi Saved my life the day he preformed the surgery on me &I I can never say thank you enough, I'm not 1 year post surgery &I just over 10stone down with a brand new lease of life! Anyone who ends up under Me Toumis care &a his team because they're equally as amazing are very very lucky people!
