I cannot rate Mr Datta more highly. His initial decision, to refer me for a flexible sigmoidoscopy (when another doctor had dismissed my symptoms) meant my bowel cancer was caught, in 2010, at stage 3. He performed two sets of surgery, and has carried out my follow up consultations, and colonoscopies, ever since. He is intelligent, engaging and humourous.
