Mr Paul Thiruchelvam

Written by a private patient at King Edward VII Hospital

Mr Thiruchelvam is an exceptional surgeon and I feel so fortunate to be put under his care initially as an NHS patient at Charring Cross before transferring to his private health clinic at King Edward VII. His empathy, care, patience, and friendly manner gave me great comfort. He explained my diagnosis and treatment plan clearly, drawing diagrams to help me understand. He was very thorough at every step of my Breast Cancer journey, not leaving anything to chance. I felt safe and reassured in his care. Though my diagnosis seemed dire, his approach to treating me was always with optimism and hope, which I really appreciated. His invaluable advice to not search on the internet for answers, which always left me feeling distraught, but to ask him and his team, allowed me to approach my journey with hope rather than pessimism. I am forever grateful to Mr Thiruchelvam for his determination to remove a diseased lymph node that was very difficult to reach during my surgery. He successfully removed the lymph node, spending more hours than was anticipated to perform the surgery. I feel he went beyond what I expected of a surgeon, and I am so grateful that he did. Mr Thiruchelvam and his team at King Edward VII were exceptional. I would particularly like to thank his radiologist Neil for his attention to detail in identifying how far the cancer had spread. I felt reassured in his care. Michelle, Mr Thiruchelvam’s PA, was also exceptional, providing prompt responses to all my queries and flawlessly managing all correspondence and appointment details. I felt supported by the nurses too and knew I could contact them at any time if needed. I appreciate the excellent care I’ve received from Mr Thiruchelvam and his team and feel comforted knowing he will be the one following me up for the next few years.

I would like to thank Dr Thiruchelvam for my excellent care. The Dr made the very worrying process understandable and reassured me throughout. I am delighted that I chose to instruct the Dr and feel that the procedure could not have gone better including the very minimal scars that are now far fading.

From the moment of diagnosis, I felt I was in good hands. The procedure was well explained and I went without fear to have my surgery done. Also emotional I had a lot of support. I could always contact Michelle, mr Thiruchelvam's PA with any questions I had, and received a swift response. Last but not least my Breastnurse, Amelia couldn't be nicer. Always a listening ear and checking up on me. The whole team was there for me and I can highly recommend them. Thank you
