I have just come from my HyCosy appointment with Dr Srivastava. Being a little nervous as I was unaware what to expect and how much discomfort I would feel I was made to feel very at ease. The procedure which was not as painful as expected (the most uncomfortable part is after, mirrors period cramps) was made a lot easier due to the kindness of the Dr and the nurse (I believe her name was Amina). The Dr offered lots of advice, talked me through the whole procedure and I left feeling like I had a lot more knowledge and understanding of what the procedure did and next steps to follow. Thank you for your patience and for being an amazing Dr and team. The feriltity ward in general at Homerton so far has been amazing. Friendly staff and waiting times have been super short.

All the staff here were professional and super kind, especially the doctors and nurses looking after me. During what could be an uncomfortable internal exam (to test my tubes) Dr S would ask me how I was, at those times where pain would be at its highest. And to be honest, because she was so gently and talking me through the procedure, I felt very comforted, and didn’t feel too bad at all.

When I was faced with a diagnosis of cancer aged 38, and the prospect of chemotherapy and infertility, Dr Garima Srivastava guided and supported me in making difficult decisions regarding my future fertility. She was invaluable. I will never forget her compassion, care and personal approach towards me at this challenging time and she has continued to support me over the past two years. I feel very fortunate to be one of her patients.

I had abnormal cells and had to have a loop excision on my cervix. I have been treated like a real person throughout, not just a patient. Everything was explained to me so I understood it, and the Dr Srivastava even drew me a picture at one point to make everything really clear to me. She has a brilliant bedside manner, which is a rarity in doctors, but apparently not at the Homerton Hospital, where 99% of the people I come in contact with are amazing and outstanding at their jobs.
