I first met Mr Thiruchelvam when he gave me the results of my mammogram and biopsies. He was very straightforward and to the point but was open to my thoughts and requests in relation to conserving the breast. I underwent a number of biopsies and scans to check on whether or not the cancer had spread and fortunately these were all clear. I had thought that I would be given a mastectomy but was pleased that Mr Thiruchelvam had listened to my request for breast conservation and was fully supportive of this approach. Working with an excellent Plastic Surgeon, Ms Hunter, was ideal and the results of the breast surgery are quite simply brilliant ensuring that all the cancer has been removed with clear margins and leaving me with comfortable, well balanced but, of course, much smaller breasts. The scaring is really minimal and so well placed that I am sure will be barely noticeable in time. I am most impressed with Mr Thiruchelvam's professionalism and great kindness particularly in ensuring that I still feel good about myself, even at my age.
