Dr Dionysis Papadatos-Pastos is exactly the doctor and the person one wants to meet as a recently diagnosed mesothelioma patient. He is highly qualified, very experienced, kind and sympathetic. He has a twinkle in his eye.
In explaining the options for treatment, and answering questions about these, he is admirably clear. He is also, as the leading oncologist treating mesothelioma at UCH, a centre of excellence at the forefront of cancer research, in a strong position to offer effective treatment and realistic hope for the future to mesothelioma patients.
He is on top of his job and seldom keeps patients waiting -- he sees patients, where he can, before their appointment time. He clearly takes an interest in each patient.
Being diagnosed with mesothelioma is deeply shocking and frightening. I have, however, found both senior and junior staff at UCL kind, supportive, knowledgeable and positive. Dr Dio exemplifies all these qualities.

Having had brain surgery to remove a tumour, which was only partially successful, I was referred to The Princess Alexandra Hospital for further treatment under Dr. Papadatos. At this extremely worrying time Dr. Papadatos put me at ease with his warm, caring and compassionate nature. He listened to my worries, my questions and anxieties, and, explained truthfully and clearly about the treatment I was to have, what side effects etc I should expect and I felt a great confidence in him. The treatment by the nurses and staff in the chemotherapy unit could not be faulted and, on the whole, I consider it, and my continued treatment, second to none.

Dr Papadatos-Pastos is an excellent doctor. I found him very open, caring, gentle and warm. He made me feel positive and hopeful. Apart from being a skilled oncologist he made a great impact on me. Under his treatment I am doing very well.
I wish him all the best.
