I think that Dr Rees is very competent, well-versed & very highly respected in his field. I sought a referral to him on the basis of recommendations. He obviously cares very much about his patients too, & my comments are intended to be constructive. I also feel that he needs to remember that the doctor- patient relationship works best when greater sensitivity is employed. This includes listening to (but not necessarily agreeing with) patient's feelings, opinions & questions about treatments on offer at other institutions, particularly when they are faced with a serious condition, and I sought other opinions partly because I felt that Dr Rees was not listening to mine sufficiently. He has also been rude to me in front of other medical staff & students, which was highly upsetting & humiliating. No-one deserves to be spoken to in this way, especially when they are faced with a difficult prognosis. Dr Rees is thorough in his manner, and I do have a high level of trust in him. I have recently noted a positive improvement in his bedside manner, & whether or not it relates to new observations about my condition, it is heartening to see. I hope that he will bear this in mind when treating other patients.
