Dr Patel met us today to give us the results of lab analysis of samples taken during the colonic cancer surgery that he carried out two weeks ago on my wife. He was careful to explain everything that had happened and what they found in the analysis. A total of 52 lymph nodes were examined and no sign of cancer was found. This meant no chemotherapy but Dr Patel explained the follow-up monitoring procedure that the unit operates as standard. Because of this we were finally able to relax in the knowledge that the correct procedure had been carried out in the correct way. Dr Patel's manner was at all times considerate and he listened carefully to any questions that I or my wife asked - and he answered the questions equally carefully. We are both very pleased with the treatment my wife received and have full confidence in the unit.

Mr Patel spoke to me on the telephone a few times about my Mother’s care whilst she was in hospital. On each occasion he was helpful, patient, honest and respectful; showing empathy towards my Mother, her situation and myself. I know my Mother said that he always took the time to talk to her about her care. We are very grateful for the care he gave my Mother. Thank you Mr Patel.

This was the best treatment I have ever had within the NHS. Mr Patel made me feel comfortable and safe in his care . I could not ask for more . Everything was well managed and now back home after having had a cancerous bowel tumor removed I feel confident of a speedy recovery. A Massive thanks to you and your wonderful team.

Excellent Doctor. Went into Hospital for appendix removal. I was back on my feet walking the same day. No pain afterwards and I can highly recommend Mr Vanash Patel.

I met Mr. Patel as an emergency referral patient through my GP and can honestly say he saved my life if it wasn’t for him and his team being so efficient knowledgeable and acting so quickly at the time things would not have turned out as they did for me.
He was so kind understanding and patient at all times explaining exactly what I was going through and what he needed to do.

Profile
Consultant General and Colorectal Surgeon,
Honorary Clinical Research Fellow Imperial College London,
MB BS, MSc, PhD DIC, FRCS (Gen Surg).
My clinical interests are in minimally invasive (robotic and laparoscopic) surgery for colorectal cancer and benign conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease and diverticulosis. I also specialise in treatments for perianal conditions such as haemorrhoids, anal fistula and anal fissure, as well as general surgical conditions such as hernia.
I graduated from St George’s University of London in 2000. I completed my specialist surgical training in the North West London Deanery. This was followed by two fellowships at St Mark’s Hospital London and the London Colorectal Fellowship (Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospital and University College Hospital).
In addition to my clinical work, I have wide research interests which have been established through my MSc in surgical science and a PhD both attained from Imperial College London. My research focuses on collaboration, leadership and mentoring in healthcare, which has culminated in numerous peer-reviewed publications in a broad range of surgical disciplines and international and national conference presentations.
I currently work as a consultant colorectal and general surgeon at Watford General Hospital and Spire Bushey Hospital.
