Barrie David EVANS

A very decent man and colleague. My (belated) sympathies to his family.

Dear Justine, I was shocked to hear today of Barrie's passing away. It was an honour to receive his meticulous, considerate care. Even though we didn't always agree on methods, I always had absolute faith that Barrie was giving me the very best treatment he had available, and that he wanted only the best outcome for me. I am very saddened that we have lost such a caring, personable gentleman, with his wonderful sense of humour and fascinating tales, alongside his constant professionalism....

I was shocked and saddened to hear of Barrie's death. During our training together at the Royal Marsden Barrie was a constant source of advice, support and above all great stories, what a wonderful sense of humour. We had some amazing role models and I know that Barrie practiced the art and not just the science of medicine. This is a very sad loss.
With love to Justine and family

Dear Justine, Thomas and Charlotte, I have been trying to find the right words to convey my feelings at the huge loss of your husband and father, who was so very proud of you all.

He will be deeply missed by all that had the pleasure to know him, even for those like me, whom met him through trying personal times as a new mum and patient.
Barrie was not only professional and knowledgable but also had that rare quality of being humble, his warm heart showed in his kindness and caring...

Deeply saddened to hear of Barrie's passing. We will always remember him. Heartfelt condolences to Justine, Thomas and Charlotte. Diana and Anthony Meyer

I was saddened to hear of Barrie's death. My sincere condolences to Justine and family. RIP Dr Evans.

Dear Justine and family. I am deeply saddened to hear of your loss of Barrie. I will be forever grateful to Barrie and you for your care and support during my cancer treatment in 2010. Barrie's dedication to his patients was unsurpassed. Love and sympathy. Judy and Mike Sinkinson

For an oncologist, Barrie could surely lay claim to saving the sanity of a lot of us. The medical treatment perhaps came with the training and professional experience - but the kindness, humour, practicality and wisdom - that was all him and those were the things that kept me on an even keel during treatment.

I hope he's somewhere now with a rod in one hand, single malt in the other and a dog at his feet.

My thoughts are with you and your family Justine.

Please accept our deepest sympathy on the loss of a husband and Father. Tony and I were saddened to hear Barrie had passed away recently. Justine you were both so kind and understanding back in April 2011 when we first met at your Epsom office. The care and concern provided us both with much needed confidence to travel a path too many have to follow. We will miss the opportunity to meet and listen to Barrie's thoughts as we move onto a new treatment regime in the New Year.
