On the 3rd of May 2019 Mr Aziz removed the cancerous part of my colon by
keyhole surgery. In consultation after the operation I was told that the cancer
had not spread to the adjacent lymph nodes and I was now free from cancer.
As a further measure of the success of the operation, a corona virus delayed
CT scan on the 14th of September 2020 showed that I am still cancer free.
The surgery marks have all but disappeared and I am feeling well. I am now
awaiting my next scan in a further six months or and continue to be extremely
grateful for the treatment I received.

One of the best surgeons I have consulted. My experience with other surgeons pale when compared with Mr Aziz. He takes close interest in his patients and he does his best to help when other surgeons are reluctant.
Very well mannered with high knowledge and experience entwined with ability to explain complex matters in simple language. Open and honest. His aftercare is exceptional. He took appropriate steps to alleviate my pain and suffering when others failed. He gave me hope and restore my quality of life. My family and myself are grateful.

Spoke to Dr Aziz over the telephone about my scan results and I must admit he makes you feel so at ease when he explains things to you,which to me is a huge plus.so once again I would just like to take this opportunity to once again thank him.

I feel extremely privileged to have been referred to Mr Aziz and his team at the Christie. The quality of care was second to none, I was dealt with swiftly and put at ease during every step of my treatment. At my initial consultation everything about my condition was explained thoroughly and sensitively.
Due to the current coronavirus pandemic I was unable to attend the Christie for my 6 week check, Mr Aziz telephoned me at my allotted appointment time and once again, explained clearly the pathology results following my surgery, how we would deal with any future treatment etc. I did not feel hurried and was able to ask lots of questions and, most importantly, reassured that Mr Aziz and his team are available if I need to contact them at any point and that they will continue to monitor me in the future.
