The obituary notice of Professor Robert GRIEVE

I thought about Prof today as I enter my 26th year of being cancer free due to an angel I was blessed to be cared for by the name of Bob. He was kind, caring and compassionate and nothing was ever a problem to him. We enjoyed chats about cricket and sent him gifts from Australia including books and cricket memorabilia. He loved Harry Potter and being a Potter myself was always fun when we met. It was a privilege to be in his company he was the simply the best and he saved my life. Rest in peace

I thought of Prof G this morning and thought I hadn't seen him for a while, walking his dog in Kenilworth, then I saw this. It was over 12 years ago that he oversaw my treatment (alongside Royal Orthopedic B'ham) and my wife and I used to always talk about how he was able to make a difficult, life threatening situation seem controllable and with a smile. Can never thank him enough and so sorry I won't be able to stop and talk, but I will look up Prof to say thanks again x

I worked for many years as a receptionist in the oncology department. Dr. Grieve was such a lovely man and it seemed only like yesterday when he walked into our department with a broad grin on his face. It was such a pleasure working for him and the way he treated his patients with such dignity and respect. Patients were so frightened when they attended for the first time and he had a lovely way of reassuring them even although their prognosis might not have been good. In all the years I worked for him there was never a cross word between us and I really feel for Kate and family for their sad loss. May you rest in peace Dr. Grieve. Jenny White

So sad to hear of the sad loss of a lovely man who helped us with the loss of our 21 year old son Michael whetstone.His care and treatment made Michael so strong and contented in those difficult times. Our thoughts are with all his family at this first Christmas and 15 years on we have never forgotten his kindness xx

My sincere condolences to the family of Professor Grieve I’m so sad to hear of his passing I was fortunate to have him treat me, such a wonderful caring man he will be greatly missed.
