My cancer had returned after 4yrs & after having various tests I thought it was the end for me, both my husband & myself were so scared at our first meeting with Mr Aziz, but he was so gentle & caring when he explained the diagnosis & possible treatment options to us, that we had the utmost confidence in him from that day onwards, he explained everything clearly & even drew a little diagram to show us what the operation entailed, he said he would do all he could to get me the best outcome possible, which he did, I am well on the road to recovery, due also to the fantastic team who work with Mr Aziz, I have spoken to Rebecca Halstead on many occasions for advice, he is a very skilled surgeon but also a very kind, down to earth & thoughtful man, I would recommend Mr Aziz to everyone, he has saved my life, thank you so very much, Gwen & John Mountford

I couldn't praise Mr Aziz enough and would certainly recommend him for all the care and expertise he showed to me.
He listened to all my concerns and explained everything in great detail what he had to do. When you are faced with major surgery, to have someone who is so positive and reassuring ,it gives you so much confidence in what you are going to face in the days ahead.
It is 12 months since surgery and after a course of chemotherapy and 2 six monthly scans , I have seen Mr Aziz twice who has informed me everything is clear..and my next appointment will be in 6 months time.
Thank you again Mr Aziz and your team for all your care and attention you have shown me.

Mr. Aziz's care is second to none. He really made me feel at ease and explained everything in detail that I could understand and he always took the time to make sure I understood everything and that I was okay after my operation. He is a very attentive man.

Caring doctor who took the time and explained my condition to me in great detail and the treatment I would receive.Mr Aziz is very hands on, I was in hospital for 2 weeks and saw him everyday except one. He listened to any concerns I had and treated me with respect.

I have no negative feedback at all. Doctor Aziz explained everything as and when needed. He came to see me every day to check on my progress as did hamish. Living a distance from the hospital my husband couldn't visit every day because of work commitments but I never felt on my own. I knew if I had any worries they were there which means alot. I am so grateful for what Dr Aziz has done for me I wouldn't hesitate in reccommending him to any patient. Dr Aziz and Hamish made a good team and all I can say is THANK YOU for giving me the chance to live a normal life. Many thanks Mark &Debra Showell
