In sept 2021 I was diagnosed with bengin meningioma at the left side of my temporal area. So I was placed under the care of this AMAZING lady Nicola Johnston. From the first day I spoke to.her she made me feel.at ease . Bearing in mind when I was first told.of this I had myself dead and buried. So nicola said we will.scan you in a 6months time. March 22 I got scan and the results were good nothing had changed so.she then.said changing scan to yearly. I thought yes so Jan 23 I was scanned a d then.in Feb 23 nicola called for.myself and husband to.inform.us that my tumour had got bigger and they wanted to.take it out. So on 28th June 23 I had my operation and OMG what a lady and her team are A1. She is an earth angle. I was discharged within 2 days of surgrey and last Thursday I saw her for my 2 week post op.review she is that brillant she couldn't even find my scar it healed that well and I had 22 clips in. Nicola Johnston you are one amazing lady and just so professional. . Bless your hands forever and always . Thanks you Love Julie anne and padraig Lynch Derry

Dr Nicola Johnston's care as a surgeon and consultant are second to none. She is not only a fantastically gifted neurosurgeon but also a wonderful, kind, and compassionate consultant. Words cannot describe the gratitude - only those patients she has treated can fully understand just how wonderful and talented she is at her job.

I was diagnosed with a meningioma in jan-22. I was so fortunate to have been introduced to miss nicola Johnston as my neurosurgeon. Over this past year she has seen me through the removal of the (thankfully benign) tumour, followed by treatment for infection and finally the insertion of a plate. Throughout all of this she has been kind and clear in everything she does. She has been open to all questions and is unfaltering in her explanation of what is happening. She actually brought me grapes and bananas at 7am one morning because I couldn’t tolerate any other food (due to iv antibiotics). Her Down-to-earth nature makes her a pleasure to interact with and she instills such confidence in her ability. I really couldn’t recommend her any higher. She truly is an angel and my saviour

I was diagnosed with a glioblastoma 3.5 years ago. When I heard this my whole life fell apart for me and my family. Dr Nicola Johnston performed her amazing surgery 2 weeks after the diagnosis and saved my life. Not only is she such a smart lady performing this kind of surgery she is also a lovely warm person who made me feel at ease given the severity of it all. Like one of the previous clients writing a review on Nicola Johnston,' may God protect your wonderful hands' and thank you so much for saving my life and for being such an amazing, kind and obviously very gifted lady.
