I was diagnosed with a gallstone a couple of weeks after giving birth to my second daughter. I had my ultrasound scan at Gatwick Spire Hospital. I had many sudden pain attacks and was in agony during these attacks. I was taken into A&E twice by the ambulance where I was told I would not be operated on unless the stone moved to another organ or if my life was at risk. I had a consultation appointment booked with Mr Jethwa on the Thursday after Easter but my husband decided to contact Mr Jethwa's secretary over the Easter weekend to speed things up. Mr Jewtha kindly contacted us on that very weekend to say he was going to fit me into his diary as soon as possible. In a day or two he phoned me back to ask if an operation on Saturday during the same week was ok with me. I was very greatful for this as by that time I hardly could eat anything and it was very difficult to look after two small children as the pain attack could come at any time. I saw Mr Jethwa on Thursday where we talked about the operation and the preparation for Saturday. I had the operation first thing on Saturday morning. Mr Jethwa saw me soon after the operation and let me know how things went. He also came in to see me on Sunday afternoon as I had some pain on the right side of my stomach. He organised extra examinations straight away to be sure that things were ok. On Monday I had further examinations and thankfully the results were good and the pain was easing by that time. I was discharged on Monday afternoon when I was pain free. Mr Jethwa called me at home that evening to see how I was. Overall I felt I was in a really good care during the entire period while I was being treated and Mr Jethwa was great at following up matters quickly. I am very thankful for his expertise and I would greatly recommend him at any time!
