Reviews
Dr Raghavan Vidya was lovely, put me at ease through my consultation. Would return to see her again if needed. The breast nurse was also very caring. They both made a great team.
Dr Vidya carried out left uss guided wire biopsy of breast lump and SLNB.
Dr Vidya is a lovely caring doctor and she was very neat with her stitches so I have minimal scarring which has healed very well.
I have seen her today for the good news that she has taken all of the tumour and my lymph nodes are clear.
She is very professional and she explains very well what will happen to me .
