Explanation

Dr Chatu and his teams were unfailingly friendly and reassuring. They cheered me up with jokes, asked me a few personal questions which put me at ease and made me think that they had a real interest in me. The procedure was quick and pain-free and they gave me a quilt to keep me warm. There was a follow-up telephone conversation which explained very well what my problem was and what to do about it. The only thing that did not come about, was the initial telephone consultation which I had had a letter about, but no one phoned. I would have appreciated someone telling me that either Dr Shatu was too busy or that the consultation was not really necessary.

Explanation

On one occasion he didn’t even have the computer switched on for one of my consultations - how can you refer to a patients notes! Didn’t give me much confidence in him. On the flip side he has been available outside of appointments when my blood tests have come through from my GP. I’m slightly disappointed that my May 2020 appointment was cancelled due to Covid and I have heard nothing as to whether I want to rebook my appointment or been offered a virtual appointment. Feel like I’ve just been forgotten about - I know my condition isn’t ‘exciting’ in the medical world but I would have thought every patient is important.

Explanation

I had a particular difficult problem that required a considerable amount of experience and patience to get to the bottom of. As an ex-nurse I recognised that Dr Chatu went to great lengths to get my diagnosis right, [he does not know i was a nurse.] He spent a long time explaining and sharing his thoughts and told me that he discussed my problem in a case conference with his colleagues. He has the most wonderful manner, respectful, kind, and a good listener. I had many endoscopies and they were made easier by how he managed small detail that mattered to me. The endoscopy suite always felt friendly and relaxed when he was there. Most of all, despite the NHS constraints, his reassurance and accessibility and hard work meant that I was properly, treated, and am now fully recovered. I have great respect for Dr Chatu, one of the best doctors I have been treated by, ever.
