From the time I first saw him he promised to be completely open and honest and that meant instantly trusted him. He’s reassuring and has time to listen and talk and explains things well. And he has a good sense of humour. Genuinely could not wish for better care

Presented in 2016 in a very poorly state, not responding to usual medication, barely able to talk and coughing without pause, day and night, having had no previous history of chest problems. Dr Mukherjee prescribed appropriate treatment which changed my life. He has kept me under his care and I have seen Dr Mukherjee today. He says that my chest is clear. I am now waiting for hip surgery, but feel well and am able to have the surgery I need. I will always be grateful to Dr Mukherjee for enabling me to live a normal and happy life. Thank you!

Dr Mukherjee has always been very professional, knowledgeable and compassionate. He took time to explain my condition and made sure I understood. He was friendly and polite and has a lovely smile, immediately putting you at ease, whilst at the same time remaining completely professional.

Dr Jayanta Mukherjee is without question an exceptional doctor who has always provided me with the best possible care and attention. Polite, knowledgeable, informative, a good communicator, what more can any patient ask for.
I can make no recommendations for his improvement.
He is sometimes let down by the appointments system not responding to his request for a further appointment in a timely manner.

My experience with Dr Mukherjee is with concern over my mum's symptoms. She was initially referred to Dr Mukherjee via a gastroenterologist within the Trust. The gastro/surgical problems had to be put on hold until the respiratory side of her health were dealt with. We met with Dr Mukherjee following a CT scan via gastroenterologist's request and two nodules were found in one of mum's lungs. I think without any hesitation he kept a thorough check on her via CT scans and a couple of PET scans over the last 18 months to 2 years. In fact he was going to discharge her after seeing her in January 2017 but for total completeness he organised a repeat CT scan followed by a repeat PET scan and the findings on the latter had shown that one of the lesions had grown albeit a slow growing lesion (this lesion was not the one of concern in the first instance, so just shows you how things can change). He then referred mum on to a Thoracic Surgeon at UHCW. We have seen this consultant this last week, mum had a pre-op on the same day and a letter is now in the post to her for her appointment date. I cannot fault the speed in which actions are now being taken for mum's health.
I cannot thank Dr Mukherjee enough, he is a quietly spoken, gentleman who I truly believes has the patient's best interests at heart All the investigations were done for completeness (obviously his instincts kicked in with the years he has worked in this area of health) and that is all one can ask of him.
Just a personal request too, please don't retire Dr Mukherjee the patients of Warwickshire who have respiratory problems need your listening ear, prompt attention and kindness.

Dr Mukherjee instantly saw the problem I presented with and within 48 hours I had a scan which led to a conclusion of a possible malignancy.
He processed my situation via the lung/thorasic dept at Warwick Hospital.Within 2 weeks the surgeon I was introduced to had performed VAT/Keyhole lung resection surgery at Walsgrave Hospital Coventry.
After biopsy the results showed that was non malignant.Happiness all round!!
Dr M's caring and swift action
was, and is, very much appreciated...Many thanks indeed.
