I found him very easy to speak to and felt very comfortable in his presence. He answered every question i asked and also gave me answers to questions that i didn't realise i needed to ask. he explained himself extremely well. he even came to visit me on the ward after the operation. he gave me confidence by saying that he had removed everything he needed to remove in my surgery. i also found him a very smart, well-spoken, young gentleman. He explained the operation to myself, partner and daughter in detail in a way we as patient/ family could understand.

Mr Aziz explained everything about my cancer in detail that was easy to understand. I was grateful also that he explained the treatment in a similar way. I felt a confidence in him and that I was in good hands. He took my feelings and concerns on board regarding the surgery and allayed my fears. I cannot thank him enough.

Before the operation he was very clear on what the procedure would be and made me feel so at ease that I could ask any questions I had.
After the operation he was there when I came round to reassure me that all had gone well. He personally telephoned my husband to let him know that the operation had been a success and the thing I was most worried about, a stoma, had not been necessary.
He is a very approachable doctor who has given me the best possible care. I cannot think of anything he could have improved on.
