Mr Thomas Satyadas

Written by a NHS patient at Manchester Royal Infirmary

I was referred to Mr Satyadas for a liver resection after six months of chemotherapy and a previous operation for stage 4 bowel cancer. I had previously been told the operation wouldn't be possible, but Mr Satyadas reviewed my scans and felt it was achievable to remove the remaining disease. From the moment I first spoke with Mr Satyadas over the phone, I felt instantly at ease. Not only is he exceptionally knowledgeable and skilled, but he has a rare quality of intuitive empathy and directed compassion. The year leading up to this operation was the most painful and challenging of my life, and I've learned that truly great doctors make the difference between feeling like you can cope with it and not. Mr Satyadas was able to complete my procedure laparoscopically, and the surgery was successful. Throughout the whole process he has been a professional and reliable source of support, and I feel very grateful to have been referred to him. I cannot recommend him highly enough or reassure anyone else in a similar position that you are in the best of hands.

I met Mr Satyadas in Jan 23 after becoming very ill with a pancreatic cyst and abscess. I found him to be warm, friendly and kind, and clearly very knowledgeable. It took some time for the team to understand what was going on and what treatment was needed. Mr Satyadas made sure I was kept up to date and gave me every confidence that things would be ok. His follow up care has been prompt and clear. He is clearly an excellent surgeon, but I also feel he is personally driven to support his patients holistically. I cannot recommend him enough.

Thomas is friendly, knowledgeable, kind and put me at ease from the moment I met him. He came highly recommended to me and given it was my first surgery and time in hospital, he made it a positive experience. His humour, expertise and professionalism are just what you would want as a nervous patient. From my initial consultation to my post operative care/follow up, I was guided through each step and offered lots of support/advice. Thomas is an amazing surgeon and equally as important, has a wonderful bedside manner. If you have the opportunity to see Thomas, I would highly recommend it, he is just fantastic.

I was admitted to hospital for liver surgery on 31st January. My surgeon had previously spoken to me on the phone to explain the diagnosis and the procedure that was needed in language that I could understand I was immediately aware of his overall concern for my reaction to this and he asked about any support I may need. This concern has been prevalent throughout my treatment. In hospital Dr Satyadas was caring and knowledgeable even about my home life. He again showed this in a follow up phone conversation. Dr Satyadas is obviously an excellent surgeon whose reputation is well deserved, but his approach to his patients goes much further than that. I have felt that he takes a very personal view of his patients that greatly reassures them. He has made a difficult time so much easier. I would like to thank him and his staff once again for all he has done.

I was referred to Mr Satyadas by my gastroenterologist. I found Mr Satyadas extremely knowledgeable, personable, calming, kind and considerate. I felt comfortable to discuss all aspects of care without feeling rushed, and subsequently had the recommended surgery performed by him. I was really satisfied with the experience and cannot recommend Mr Satyadas highly enough.
