Excellent

Super friendly consultant I ever seen. Amazing to get email responses and also called couple of times via phone to check how well I was doing. First time I experienced such great care from a consultant. Very much reassured by his approach and made me less anxious about the problem I faced.

Excellent Dr, very reassuring would highly recommend him to anyone who is suffering. He gets down to the bottom of what is wrong.

Such clear thoughtful advice given with respect and superb professionalism. I feel that I am in a good pair of hands through this difficult period.

In July 2023 I was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer. The only option I was offered by the NHS was “Watchful Waiting”, and as my cancer developed, hormone treatment to slow the progress of my cancer. I asked my consultant if the roles were reversed would he be happy to accept my prognosis, he said no! He then referred me to Professor Prasanna Sooriakumaran (Professor PS) at the Cleveland Clinic London (CCL). I was reluctant to go to London as I live in Stratford upon Avon and the logistics of traveling to London, parking, hotel accommodation (The CCL offer some excellent packages to cover these areas) and the lack of available close support from family and friends, seemed somewhat daunting. However, in my meetings with Professor PS I became convinced he was the right choice to be my consultant. Professor PS was understanding of my concerns, outlined all my options in detail, and explained why a Radical Prostatectomy would be my best option. He took me through all the stages of the procedure from diagnosis to how my operation would be performed to recovery. Professor PS treated me with respect, understanding and kindness and I was conscious I was dealing with someone at the very top of their game. He was very honest with me explaining that my weight and size of my prostate would make the operation more complicated. I heeded his advice and lost two stone and generally ensured my fitness levels improved before the date of my operation. Fortunately, even with the complications of my weight and the extensive reconstructive surgery required, my radical prostatectomy was a complete success. My recovery has been nothing less than spectacular. The nursing staff at the Cleveland Clinic were excellent. After the surgery I had no pain and no discomfort. I was able to get up the day after my operation and walk about and went home two days later. After 3 weeks I had my catheter removed and was discharged from the CCL. Professor PS kept in touch with me during this period and made time to visit me just before I was discharged.

I had a delicate problem which I have been emarassed about for year. Dr Salil made me feel comfortable and explained everything very well

My experience with Dr Ivaz was nothing short of outstanding. She is an experienced and extremely knowledgable surgeon who made sure I felt comfortable and optimistic about my procedure. I couldn’t recommend a better urologist and couldn’t be happier with the result of my procedure.

Very kind and knowledgeable prof, helped in any way he could.
