Messages Of Condolence

Dr Yardley welcomed me to Castlemead Medical Centre in 2004 when I stated my Community Midwife role. He was supportive and kind and made me feel part of the team from day one. A truly lovely G.P.
Thoughts go out to his family, friends and colleagues at this very difficult time.

My deepest sympathy to Mrs Yardley and the family on their sad loss. I had the pleasure to work with Dr Yardley when he worked at Groby Road Hospital late 60/70s and lived in the lodge at the entrance to the hospital. He was always helpful and shared his knowledge and expertise with his colleagues .He was very caring and compassionate to the patients and an excellent clinician and he is someone who I remember fondly during my time nursing there.

Andrew, such a gentleman and always smiling. Will be thinking of my dearest cousin, his wife Gillian and the family. He was always happy to help especially when it came to working on the farm at lambing season. Our thoughts are with you all. Jennifer. Tom and family.

How would you describe Dr Yardley, he was a kind, caring,funny and an amazing gp. He always had time for anyone even if you weren't his patient he would help and advise you.

I remember he always visited the hospital on Christmas day, he was loved by all of the staff.
Terribly sad that another little piece of our lives has been taken and my love and condolences go to his family at this very sad time but what wonderful memories he has left for us.

I am very sad to hear of Andrew‘s passing. I first met him in 1979 and he always extremely professional, helpful and enormously dedicated to his job and his patients.
I will always remember his attendance at the local Medical Society. Andrew was always late but well announced when he came. The meeting only started properly on his arrival and Andrew would then pose a variety of complex, discerning questions of eminent guest speakers. He was often amongst the last to leave. His knowledge was exceptional.
I think his car spent far more hours at the surgery than it did at home. Thinking of your family at this difficult time.
