Very positive experience. Mr Patel fully explained the procedure risks and benefits in a calm and thorough way. His communication has been clear with opportunities to ask questions and seek clarification as needed.

Mr Patel was exceptionally good as my consultant. I liked the way he listened carefully to what I told him about my illness and was very perceptive in responding. He made a big effort to address my concerns about the urgency caused by pain from the hernia and throughout showed consideration and professionalism.
I was very impressed with the care I received from Mr Patel and his team.

Mr Vanish Patel explained in great detail about my condition and the surgery that I was to undergo. I was very happy with the surgery and aftercare. Post surgery, he was very patient in listening to my questions and took time to listen and advice accordingly.

Mr Patel my consultant , I couldn’t ask for a better doctor for 2 operations subtotal Colectomy and year later Proctectomy , he is an outstanding surgeon with the minimal of pain through out my operations , he explains , he has empathy , understanding and explains my procedures in details and plain language for me to understand. I couldn’t ask for any better outcome with my ulcerative colitis . The op was Laparoscopic which reduces the pain and release from hospital can be quicker, I am grateful and any patient is lucky to have Dr Patel to operate .

Profile
Consultant General and Colorectal Surgeon,
Honorary Clinical Research Fellow Imperial College London,
MB BS, MSc, PhD DIC, FRCS (Gen Surg).
My clinical interests are in minimally invasive (robotic and laparoscopic) surgery for colorectal cancer and benign conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease and diverticulosis. I also specialise in treatments for perianal conditions such as haemorrhoids, anal fistula and anal fissure, as well as general surgical conditions such as hernia.
I graduated from St George’s University of London in 2000. I completed my specialist surgical training in the North West London Deanery. This was followed by two fellowships at St Mark’s Hospital London and the London Colorectal Fellowship (Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospital and University College Hospital).
In addition to my clinical work, I have wide research interests which have been established through my MSc in surgical science and a PhD both attained from Imperial College London. My research focuses on collaboration, leadership and mentoring in healthcare, which has culminated in numerous peer-reviewed publications in a broad range of surgical disciplines and international and national conference presentations.
I currently work as a consultant colorectal and general surgeon at Watford General Hospital and Spire Bushey Hospital.
