- On 12 of November I had a surgery for the colon cancer removal. Mr Patel came and saw me prior to the surgery & provided his confident assurance that all will go well - it indeed, went better than expected. On the 24 of November, I had the follow up appointment with Mr Patel. It was a pleasure such a talented, highly skilled surgeon and a perfect gentleman. He gave us the best news that anyone could wish to hear. "All Clear". Thank you MR Patel and the team - highest praise 👏.
