Share review of Miss Rachel Rolph
When I first met Dr. Rolfe I was a liitle nervous because I thought she was very
young.However my nerves quickly went away when I realised she was a very
experienced doctor/surgeon and a delight to meet. She had a warm demeanour which I
found relaxing. She explained my treatment options for my breast cancer with
great care and indeed repeated them several times when I asked without any complaint.
She did't attempt to influence me apart from saying that a mastectomy was the
best level of care the hospital could offer. I had already been told this by other
Doctors along the way. When I decided not to have the mastectomy she made
no attempt to change my mind. Then when I changed my mind she calmly
accepted it. I was never made to feel rushed or a nuisance, On the day of the operation
she came to see me beforehand and also afterwards which was re-assuring.
All in all I found Dr. Rolfe a delightful person and a superb doctor. I think the
Marsden is lucky to have her in the team and I was lucky to have her as my surgeon. I wish her luck in her future career.
She made an unbearable operation bearable.
