Dr Stearn explained my condition to me very well and the procedure that I would be having. He was very good during my procedures as my veins are not the easiest. Overall a pleasant experience for a not very pleasant procedure.

Dr Stern was able to give me a diagnosis very swiftly and helped me tremendously to speed up the process of obtaining a referral to specialist clinic through my GP. I cannot thank him enough and would recommend him without any reservation.

After a somewhat worrying and poor experience with my local GPs I was referred to Dr Stern. From my first appointment I’ve been impressed and comforted by his kind, calm and thorough approach, he takes his time to make sure you are clear on explanations and he takes his time to answer any questions in a really considered and calm manner. Dr Stern has been a calm and reassuring presence at a time when I’ve been anxious about my health and feel grateful to have been under his care.

I have been a patient of Dr Simon Stern for several years and have regular out patient contact with him in his role as a Haematology Consultant at St Helier Hospital. My experience of Dr Stern has been wholly positive for the following reasons: - He is friendly and approachable. - He is able to explain complex health matters and options for treatment in a way that I have always been able to understand. - I have always respected Dr Stern's judgements and the advice he has given me has always been helpful. For example, I appreciated the time he took to explain the various options for chemotherapy treatment. - His detailed post consultation letters have always been shared with me and, in my experience, have always been accurate. - In my particular circumstances, Dr Stern has been aware of the impact of Haematology / cancer treatment on my other health conditions and has adopted a collaborative way of working with other health professionals. To sum up, my experience of Dr Stern has been totally positive.

Since I was first diagnosed with CLL in 2006 Dr Stern has been my steadfast support through two chemotherapy periods (2006 and 2012). He is always kind, considerate and ready to engage with me and, when I ask, share the technical details. In fact in 2011 he identified another problem I had with my prostate and I subsequently was cared for by a surgeon, Mr Michael Swinn for that procedure. I shall always be grateful to Dr Stern for his measured and scientific approach combined with always being treated as a human being.
