Professor McEvoy was well briefed but still wanted to hear our story before talking us through his expert assessment.
He is a gifted communicator who is able to contextualise complex issues and detail his thoughts in an entirely comprehensible way to us, laypeople with an interest, educated through very narrow research.
He is, above all, kind, and gave us the time to articulate our concerns and hopes.
His humility in seeking further opinion from his MDT speaks to the quality of his care and character.
We are very grateful for all of the above and, of course, his clinical experience and expertise.

Professor McEvoy is very approachable with a wonderful bedside manner. He listens carefully and takes time to go through my scans with me and my family and discuss treatment options. He is clearly extremely skilled and knowledgable about neurosurgery and neuro-oncology and I have put my trust in him for the last 12 years without hesitation.

Prof McEvoy took a very thorough history of my back and hip pain and I felt very listened to. He was extremely kind, and helpful regarding next steps in the plan towards mitigating my pain.

I felt Mr McEvoy took time to listen to what my concerns were. He explained everything to me clearly and with compassion.
He reassured me and provided me with guidance to go forward with my healthcare.

Having been told elsewhere that my husband's brain tumour was inoperable, professor McEvoy agreed to operate. He was able to remove all the tumour that was visible on the MRI without causing further deficit.
Professor McAvoy is very personable and has fantastic bed manner which is extremely helpful when navigating difficult decisions. He was very clear about the risks involved in such complex brain surgery, but we felt supported and more confident that we were making the right choice.

The doctor was clearly able to explain what the surgery will entail and where the problem was in my brain.
He came across as calm, patient, clever and with lots of experience.
He was able to make me comfortable and one to one session went extremely well.

Mr McEvoy and his entire team are absolutely brilliant. My family and I can’t thank them enough for all the care given to my father during his treatment for a brain tumour. Mr Mcevoy is extremely committed to give the best upmost care to his patients and we as a family will be forever grateful.
Would recommend Mr Mcevoy and his entire team to anyone in need of the treatments.

I understood why I was kept waiting for five hours when it was eventually explained: rather late in the day.
