I have recently been under investigation for Crohn's (or other possible Inflammatory bowel disease) by gastroenterologist Dr Blaker at Tunbridge Wells Hospital. I cannot praise Dr Blaker (and his team) highly enough, for being so dedicated to discovering what has been causing my acute and chronic abdominal pain for the past nine months. After undergoing extensive tests, I have now been assured that my pain is not being caused by an inflammatory bowel disease, which was one of my greatest fears, as I am already disabled and live with a very debilitating and painful soft tissue disorder.

Dr Blaker was so patient and understanding regarding the abdominal pain I have been experiencing and while I still do not have a definitive diagnosis as of yet as to the cause of my pain, I am so grateful to have been seen by a doctor who is so dedicated to helping his patients.
