Mr Alexander Hotouras

Written by a NHS patient at Whipps Cross University Hospital

Alex Hotouras is part of the uniformly excellent colorectal/gastroenterology team at Whipp Cross, part of the Barts Trust. Caring, supportive, and senstive to individual patient needs, Alex inspires confidence in both his treatment and his opinions on the best course for one's care. Having undergone a difficult programme of treatment, over an extensive period of time, Mr Hotouras has always been straightforward, informative and has helped me through the surgical and support process, backed up by the wider medical and nursing team. The needs of the individual patient are always at the centre of his concerns, yet at the same time he is suitably direct when imparting information and advice. His pragmatism and balanced approach is also reassuring. My treatment programme could have been much more difficult without the support and expertise of a consultant like Mr Hotouras and I would have no hesitation in recommending him to others.

Dr Hotouras made me feel very comfortable with the procedure after explaining it in great depth. Although my after care by the hospital was not great, as it was a new procedure they did not inform Dr Hotouras of my returns which led to some complications. However once Dr Hotouras was aware he personally took over my after care and ensured I was seen by himself and his team on numerous occasions to ensure my post op healing was on track. Dr Hotouras personally called to make sure I was ok weeks after my healing, which for me shows his dedication to his patients. I would like to thank Dr Hotouras for making the whole experience as uncomplicated as possible and for also choosing me to undergo this new procedure as it has really made a difference to my day to day life.

I cannot thank Alex enough the care and expertise he has shown me is second to none, I have a complicated case of Crohn’s disease and he has shown nothing but compassion and fun (surprisingly) throughout my journey. He was with me through every step of my surgery, pre surgery and after surgery care and told me throughout that if I need him contact his secretary and he meant every word. I fully recommend Alex as an amazing doctor, surgeon and human being. From the the bottom of mine and my families heart thank you so much

Mr Hotouras is an exceptional clinician with a very professional manner. I felt very much at ease and safe during my recent colonoscopy. I was reassured and any last minute concerns were addressed appropriately. I would highly recommend Mr Hotouras.

Dr Hotouras gives the news to you direct and honestly which I feel is close to top of the list in what I would want from a Dr. He is extremely professional and I can tell he is experienced and knowledgable in his field. He gives a personalised experience to each patient and shows that he takes great pride in his work. Thank you for carrying out the procedure on me today and fingers crossed I am under your care on my follow up appointment in 3 to 6 months time too.
