Vanash Patel
Following an HSJ roundtable discussion I outline the case in the HSJ for a national robotics strategy that can democratise access to robotic surgery using
“How successfully have our Versius robots integrated with the surgical team?” As cases with Versius accelerate at West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, I’ve written down
“How do you go about setting up a surgical robotics programme?” It’s a question I thought about a lot just a year or so ago,
Very attentive and listens.
Vanash arrived at my bed after the operation, every day whilst I was inpatient to check my well being, helped me with all my post-operation inquiries. He gave me very helpful instructions to recover at home. Thank you
Very open, explained well.
The whole process was excellent from start to finish. The Doctors and Nurses did an amazing job and really helped me all the way through.
Mr Patel explained all aspects of my treatment very clearly and what would be involved with the procedure. I felt reassured and fully aware of what the next steps would be at what was an anxious time for me.
Mr. Patel has been amazing throughout. He has an air of calmness which is completely reassuring and fills you with confidence that he has your situation in hand at every step.
My surgery was performed brilliantly by Dr Patel, and I was very satisfied and grateful for his excellent treatment and dedication. Thank You
“Vanash Patel’s keyhole surgery, removed my intestinal tumour”
I received great care and advice from Mr Patel. He went through all the procedures very well and I felt that I was in good safe hands. Also listened to me and reassured me on all my concerns. A great doctor.
I Have a great deal of faith and respect for Mr V Patel. He had and still is taking great care of me. I really can’t thank him enough for everything he has done for me and for my future care. I highly recommend Mr Patel and trust him 100%. You can too!
Great explanations and honest with the possible outcomes.
“I have no hesitation in recommending Mr Vanash Patel as a surgeon”
Before and after my operation Mr Patel took the time to explain everything, listen to my questions and give concise answers. He was always relaxed and confident which inspired the same in me. The care I received was excellent.
I really appreciate the care that I am receiving at this difficult time. The staff at Watford and Bushey Spire have been wonderful.
“Vanash performed my mums cancer surgery during Covid-19 lockdown”
Vanash kept me informed of all my treatment etc and made me confident of a successful conclusion to my surgery.
“I recently had Colorectal surgery at the Spire Hospital Bushey”
Extremely pleasant, kind and caring dr. Happy with my surgery and grateful to be on the road to recovery
I have complete trust in this doctor , he explained everything in plain English and answered all of my questions.
I consulted with Vanash whilst I was in hospital. Not only was his advice to me comforting his judgement was very sound. In my situation it was different from that which was being suggested by the hospital consultant seeing me and was in my opinion prefect as it saved me from an unnecessary operation.
Dr Vanash Patel carried out my bowel surgery. He was extremely professional and caring. I felt I was in excellent care and strongly recommend him. Please do pass this feedback onto his management team. I left with such a positive experience due to him.
Mr Patel answered my questions clearly and gave me confidence about the procedure and the post Op care.
Mr Patel carried out my bowel operation in Jan 2021 (at the height of the pandemic). The operation was completely successful and the care I received was excellent. The recovery has been easier than I expected so all round I am extremely happy with my experience.
I was seen/spoken to via the pathway and in spite of the COVID problems, Dr Vanash followed up with my investigations diligently. So thankful.
Excellent Doctor. Went into Hospital for appendix removal. I was back on my feet walking the same day. No pain afterwards and I can highly recommend Mr Vanash Patel.
“This was the best treatment I have ever had within the NHS”
Very attentive and efficient. Great service in arranging appointments and operation quickly with very little waiting time.
“Vanash and his team were so amazing, professional and caring”
I’ve just had surgery at Bushey Spire hospital done by Mr. Vanash Patel and I can say only one thing. Great doctor, very professional and caring. Outstanding service. Thank you!
“Mr Patel never made me feel that I was just an anonymous patient.”
Brilliant doctor, really supportive, happy to help and listen to your issues, he is very friendly and polite! In general he is brilliant.
Mr Patel was very informative and professional throughout – he was extremely approachable and gave many opportunities to ask questions. He went above and beyond and I feel very blessed to have Mr Patel as my Consultant.
Such a great understanding doctor. Diagnosed my problem very quickly and was dealt with promptly with the greatest care. Checked up on me and reassured me that he would have me on the road to recovery. I can’t thank this man enough for saving my life
Mr Vanesh Patel – a brilliant doctor. Professional, kind and caring. I cannot praise him highly enough. So grateful to be in his care. Thank you.
I’ve had haemorrhoids for long while, Mr Vanash Patel listens and genuinely cares for his patients, just thank you very much.
I’ve seen Mr Patel for two associated conditions within three months. The conditions were both dealt with without fuss or delay. I am delighted with the results as I am now pain free after 20 years of trying to manage the condition myself.
“Mr Vanash Patel was excellent throughout my time under his care”
Very positive experience. Mr Patel fully explained the procedure risks and benefits in a calm and thorough way. His communication has been clear with opportunities to ask questions and seek clarification as needed.
From my consultation to my opp, Dr Patel has been amazing! Explaining everything to me along the way and getting me seen so quickly.
Performed 3 operations on me throughout the two years. Very professional, caring and considerate. Always seen on time too. Highly recommend!
I cannot recommend Mr Patel highly enough. He was always clear, honest, encouraging and open. He was skilful in his operation and his follow up and analysis was superb. He made a very difficult experience seem much easier and I really appreciate that.
Mr Patel set everything out in a very clear way that I could understand and I was kept informed all the time of the progress absolutely brilliant service and work. Thank you very much
Very caring, professional, discussed treatment thoroughly and what he thought was best for me, I couldn’t have wished for better care
