I gained contact with Mr Aziz through my employer insurance scheme for a second opinion with regard to my colon surgery (tumour removal and subsequent reversal of stoma).
Mr Aziz is very personable and explains everything in plain English which is important to me as a patient.
Given Mr Aziz's qualifications I always thought I was in the best hands possible and that I would be given the best outcome possible under his care, which has proved to be the case.
Without a doubt Mr Aziz's advice changed the course of my cancer journey for the better.
I am now under the care of the Christie which I feel offers first class care.

The holistic approach to treat me, the clarity and honest guidance professor Aziz gave me was key to helping me take the decision to proceed with such major surgery.
Despite my age 84 years i was given the chance to continue living an independent life with my family.
I am 2 months from my operation and am back driving my car and fully engaged in daily life.
I thank you and your team for your compassion and skill with which you treated me.
Yours sincerely
Balbir Thethi.
