i had been seeing the other gp's for a problem for two years, i was continually being diagnosed as having gastric reflux, i saw dr.Iyer as it was getting worse.
i was denied a referral for Colchester hospital but dr.iyer pushed for me at Broomfield, she also organised an US of my abdomen as i had increasing pain.
unfortunately a mass was found and i was diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma. tumour at 5cm.
i was fast tracked and had surgery, and completed chemo and now am cancer free
if Dr.Iyer hadn't of pushed and got me referred i probably wouldn't be here today.
thankyou for giving me my future, i will be eternally grateful xx
from a loving mum of two xx and bride to be :)
