I saw Mr Aziz initially as a private patient after being diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer. My local hospital in Derby told me they could not operate and were only able to provide palliative care. From the very first consultation, Mr Aziz was friendly, professional and put myself, husband and daughter at ease. He explained the potential procedure in great detail and in a way which was easy to understand. We were very confident in his ability to help and luckily, Mr Aziz and his team agreed to perform cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC. The operation was arranged very quickly with Mr Aziz in personal contact throughout. The whole team at the Christie were excellent, from Angela the secretary, the nurses, ward staff and of course Mr Aziz and the other surgeons. The after care in the hospital was wonderful, all the staff were very accommodating to both me and my family. Correspondence to my GP and my local oncologist in Derby was quick and comprehensive. I have contacted the Christie several times since my discharge and have always had a speedy resolution to my queries. To say that Mr Aziz saved my life sounds dramatic but is totally true. It is impossible to express the gratitude of myself and my family and I would recommend both him and the hospital to anyone who unfortunately finds themselves having to face cancer.
