When I first met Dr. Rolfe I was a liitle nervous because I thought she was very young.However my nerves quickly went away when I realised she was a very experienced doctor/surgeon and a delight to meet. She had a warm demeanour which I found relaxing. She explained my treatment options for my breast cancer with great care and indeed repeated them several times when I asked without any complaint. She did't attempt to influence me apart from saying that a mastectomy was the best level of care the hospital could offer. I had already been told this by other Doctors along the way. When I decided not to have the mastectomy she made no attempt to change my mind. Then when I changed my mind she calmly accepted it. I was never made to feel rushed or a nuisance, On the day of the operation she came to see me beforehand and also afterwards which was re-assuring. All in all I found Dr. Rolfe a delightful person and a superb doctor. I think the Marsden is lucky to have her in the team and I was lucky to have her as my surgeon. I wish her luck in her future career. She made an unbearable operation bearable.
