This was the best stoma nurse I have seen. He was knowledgeable about my condition, but also respectful in listening to and appreciating my own knowledge and experience. I did not at any point feel patronised, as has been the case with all prior stoma nurses I have seen.

I felt listened to and really appreciated that Andrew took the time to explain the reasoning for his decisions and advice, so I could make an informed decision on which products to try next. He was very kind and friendly.
