On meeting Mr Kolias on the morning of my operation for the removal of a Pituitary Adenoma he explained everything to me and made both me and my husband feel very confident about the procedure. The operation was successful and the Addenbrookes teams treated me with great care. Mr Kolias called my husband after the operation but my husband was unavailable in the afternoon but Mr Kolias took the time to call him in the evening and assured him that all had gone to plan. All the teams who looked after me the ENT department, the Endocrinology department, and the anesthetic department were extremely kind and caring. I couldn't have been looked after better.

I am so grateful to Dr Angelos Kolias as well as the other surgeons and their team, they have saved my life and I woke up from the surgery feeling like a new person. The care I had received throughout my time at Addenbrokes had been outstanding and I will forever be grateful to them. I went into surgery fully trusting in what they will do and now have a chance at leaving my life again. Thank you for everything you and your team has done. Karolina

Dr Kolias is a superb Doctor. From the moment he was involved in my wife’s treatment and care we both felt in good hands. His constant communication and constructive schedule ensured Tracy was extremely well cared for and resulted in the best possible outcome for her , Im personally grateful Dr Kolias looked after Tracy so well and gave her the future she deserves, thank you Dr Kolias with the very best regards John & Tracy.

I am just over two weeks out from endoscopic transphenoidal pituitary surgery which was carried out by Mr Kolias at Addenbrooke’s Hospital. The recovery from the procedure is going incredibly well and the care of the team before, during and after was excellent.
I was first in contact with Mr Kolias via telephone as my case had been transferred to him, so we had not had prior contact or rapport from the beginning of my diagnosis. That said, Mr Kolias was always understanding and clearly trying to get the best outcome for his patients given the challenging circumstances.
On the day of the surgery I saw Mr Kolias before and after which was reassuring.
The surgery itself went very well- no complications, leaks or eye problems and I am told the whole adenoma and cyst has been completely removed.
For the duration of my stay at the hospital I had many check ups and visits from Mr Kolias and the wider team as well, to make sure I was recovering well and there were no issues following the surgery.
I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Kolias and the wider team that were involved with this procedure.
