I had an appointment with Doctor Alexander Hotouras at Whipps Cross University Hospital on May 28th 2024. I was recommend by the urologist team who work closely with him. On arrival at the Hospital on May 28th I was very nervous and apprehensive but after discussing my bowel issue with Doctor Alexander Hotouras I left Whipps Cross Hospital knowing that he understood my concerns and appreciated the pain that I was experiencing. My next appointment with Doctor Alexander Hotouras was on July 24th in between May 28th and July 24th I underwent a series of tests that Doctor Alexander Hotouras required me to do. On July 24th I again met with Doctor Alexander Hotouras. He explained in clear and precise detail what he had discovered that was causing me to be in excruciating pain. Doctor Alexander Hotouras then explained to me that I had 2 Options. 1) Major Surgery that required at least 1 weeks stay in Hospital following the operation. 2) Not having an operation and my issue would only get worse leaving me housebound. On September 5th I was admitted to Whipps Cross Hospital where I was operated on by Doctor Alexander Hotouras and his colleagues for 5 Hours & 30 Minutes. The 1st person to see me after the operation was Doctor Alexander Hotouras. He told me the operation was a success, his pleasure in explaining this to me was obvious to see. He cares very much about his patients and he visited me in the ward that I was in every day except on Sunday to see how I was progressing. I left Hospital on September 13th and to my surprise I received a call on my mobile at home this morning September 16th from Doctor Alexander Hotouras Doctor Alexander Hotouras is a kind and caring professional surgeon. He will always have a place in my heart. Lyn Fothergill

I had a hernia operation on July 25th. I could not have had better treatment than I received from alex. He was there if you needed to ask a question or you were worried about anything. Nothing was too much for him. If im worried about anything i can phone him up any time ,to ask him anything. They are very lucky to have a great doctor at whipps x.He is so understanding and positive in what he does.

I was seen by Dr. Alex Hotouras at Whipps Cross, had "Left Hemicolectomy" surgery on 14th August 2024, surgeon Dr Hotouras who carried out the procedure, throughly explained in details the procedure & followed up throughout my 2 weeks stay at Rowan ward (bed23).

Alex was an incredible doctor. He was so clear with his communication, always willing to listen and to resolve any anxieties I had. He was open and honest about any possible complications involved with my procedure but always positive and supportive. His presence was professional and warm. I felt he truly cared for my well being. Nothing constructive to feedback as it was a truly exceptional experience for me. Thank you so much

From my diagnosis to discharge the care from Mr Hotouras was impeccable. Mr Hotouras really listens, he was clear about the surgery and what would be the expected outcome and recovery time. On the day of surgery he came to see me.explained the process and how he hoped it would go but also what he would do if there were complications. Aftercare was faultless, he is always the first consultant on the ward. Mr Hotouras’s genuinely shows an interest in your recovery, informs every step of the way, if complications occur he is quick to find resolutions. Not only is he a brilliant surgeon, he is a really nice man too and he makes you feel genuinely cared for. I cannot recommend him highly enough and you would be very lucky if he is your surgeon.
