I first saw Mr Hussein in May, having been referred by my GP following the discovery of a lump in my left breast. Despite nothing showing up in an ultrasound, Mr Hussein fixed an appointment to see me six weeks later. Two further appointments followed for biopsies before I was diagnosed with Grade 2 breast cancer. I subsequently had a masectomy followed by radiotherapy. Throughout all these appointments and surgery, Mr Hussein has always managed to balance professionalism with empathy. He delivers bad news well (if that is possible!) and I have never felt unable to ask questions, no matter how insignificant they seem at the time. I would have no hesitation in recommending him - and more generally, the staff at the Breast Unit at Ipswich Hospital.
