Firstly I have to say what a credit Mr Chang is to Epsom and St Helier! I first met Mr Chang after a malignant tumour was found during a colonoscopy after suffering from bowel cancer symptoms. Being quite young for bowel cancer at 36 I was very nervous when I first walked into the appointment but I left feeling very reassured and confident in Mr Chang as he explained everything so clearly and kindly. I had laparoscopic high anterior resection surgery, where Mr Chang removed 13-15cm of my bowel. I was aware that I may have to have a stoma but I woke up to no stoma and the surgery went perfectly. He even came to check on me daily while I was in hospital, which I very much appreciated. My recovery was great and I was back home a week later with no complications. It’s been 3 weeks since my surgery and everything is going great and I’m feeling stronger by the day with regular bowel movements and minimal pain. I can’t put into words how grateful I am for such a wonderful surgeon, Mr Chang not only performed an operation which saved my life, but his kindness is what sets him apart from so many. Someone wrote on here that it’s fate to have him as a surgeon and I couldn’t agree more.
