I have spent my entire life juggling the challenges of growing up with a long-term chronic health condition and leading a normal life. I had been seeing doctors regularly every since I can remember and today I am a professional, healthy working man now. Warren Hyre started looking after me when I was about 10 years old, I use to see him, maybe, every 3 months, unless I became more unwell. Thinking back he must have been just become a consultant at that time, but he left an impression on me at that young age, that made me realise that I had some responsibility towards managing my own health condition and that I should be as involved as possible. He tried to explain it to me slowly over time in a language I could relate to as a 10 year old. He was the first doctor that actually made me feel part of the consultation by talking to me often, and not only to my parents, he found what was important to me. I saw him regularly until I was about 14 or 15 years old before my care was handed over to adult services, which I felt better equipped to deal with because of his encouragement, care, advice and close eye for any early signs that my health was deteriorating. His bedside manner was outstanding, and I will always be grateful for the impact he made on my life. I wish him all the best in having a positive influence on every child he treats.
