I was diagnosed as having breast cancer on 5th July 2022. Miss Vidya told myself and my husband of my diagnosis with sensitivity but was also able to inform me of my many choices of treatment. Alongside the great care nurses, she listened to our concerns, and was able to answer them with great confidence, which in turn enabled us to trust her experience and knowledge.
Miss Vidya carried out my mastectomy within two weeks of diagnosis and went out of her way to fit me in before she broke up for her holidays, to reduce my ‘worry time’. For this, my family and I are extremely grateful.
Miss Vidya and the rest of her team have kept me fully up to date with details of my treatment, what to expect at each stage, and what to expect in the future.
I fully feel that Miss Vidya is both extremely professional, yet approachable, and I would have no hesitation in contacting her or her team during my further treatment, if I or my family had and concerns or questions. I am totally satisfied with the attention and treatment I have received from Miss Vidya.

When I saw Dr Vidya on 22nd July she was very understanding snd supportive and arranged further tests the same day to give me peace of mind. I was very happy with my consultation and would opt to see Dr Vidya in the future if the need arose.

Dr Vidya was lovely from the start, she gave me options, I had a lumpectomy and also some lymph nodes removed, the scaring is minimal and you can hardly see the one and the operation was only 5 weeks ago, I would 100% recommend Dr Vidya.

A big thank you to Dr Raghavan and her amazing team for my breast cancer surgery at New Cross hospital and also her advice on my reconstruction and all of the support and aftercare that I received. You made a very difficult time a lot easier.
