I was recommended to sascha by a friend . I had breasts implants 17 years ago & they badly needed replacing . When I first met sascha I was instantly relaxed by her lovely personality & great sense of humour , she thought one of my implants had ruptured & sent me there & then to have a mamogram & ultra sound , then straight back to see her for the results , no having to come back another day for the results . Sascha listens & you & you never feel rushed , she takes time & explains in detail any concerns or worries that you have . I went back the following week to see sascha again as I had decided for sascha to remove & replace my implants asap ! She went through varies sizes with me & eventually we decided together that I would go slightly bigger with my new implants . Sascha sorted everything & I went in for my op the following week . Sascha came & saw me on the day of my op , constantly reassuring me ( I was actually so excited ) but she made sure I was ok , my children were with me ( they are 18& 20 ) & she spoke to them & said for them to go & have some lunch & she would call them when I was out of surgery . Everything went well , sascha came in to see me later that evening . I stayed in hospital for 2 nights & can honestly say I had amazing care by all of the ward staff , they all went that extra mile for me . I saw sascha a week later to check all was ok . I'm now 2 weeks tomorrow post op & I'm seeing sascha again tomorrow . I can't stress enough how fantastic sascha is , you can contact her any time if you have any concerns pre & post op & she almost instantly replies & so does her PA . I would highly recommend sascha , she treats everyone as an individual , I'm so so pleased with my amazing new boobies . Michelle Wilkins xx

sascha Dua is a lovely consultant and made my visits much more pleasurable instead of dreading it after my initial diagnosis of breast cancer. We always shared a joke and she always remembered both my and my husbands names and she actually listened to me. I had my final op end January and now feel good about myself and confident to go on my special cruise and holiday in April something we planned over 2 years ago. She actually planned my final op so that I would be fit and ready for my holiday. Thank you Sascha and see you later in year.

I have been treated for breast cancer by Sascha Dua. She has done a wonderful job of my surgery. I had to have a lumpectomy, but my scars are almost invisible. Sascha is a lovely lady, always so reassuring and positive, a very bubbly personality which is what you need when you are going through the trauma of breast cancer. I would not hesitate to recommend her. Janet Tremlett

From the minute I met Sascha she treated myself and family with amazing kindness, mixed with empathy and humour. She explained everything that was happening and going to happen without scaring me. She phoned my daughter before I was even out of theatre to say I was ok, which showed her care towards the whole family. My scar is neat, to me that's important as I already had no self confidence and body image is important at any age and I think Sascha gets that. At my follow up appointments it didn't take a lot to freak me out, but yet again there she was with hugs and humour to put me at ease. I feel truly lucky to have this lady fighting my corner with me. I think at probably the most frighten tile in my life I had the best possible treatment from an amazing surgeon. There is only one negative to this post I struggled a little with a couple of the aftercare nurses. You are told to call with any worries and I think I've only call a few times but on one occasion I felt like I was being a nuisance. Having said that it was only a couple of times.

I met Sascha after looking online for a surgeon as I wanted to have a boob job. Being 22 Years old and being someone that has never had surgery or anesthetist before I was terrified but after years of thinking about it I decide to take the plunge. Not only am I over the moon with the end result but I was so happy that I chose Sascha and put my trust in her to do the operation. Whilst doing my research on surgeons I was drawn to Sascha as she specialises in all things breasts and I thought who better than her to give me a pair of boobs, and the fact she was a woman just topped it off for me and I booked my consultation straight away. Sascha made me feel very comfortable every time I met her and answered every question I had without hesitation or trying to rush me out the door. She gave me her email address so I could ask her as many questions as I wanted, whenever I wanted and she always replied with positive and helpful responses and very quickly. I always felt like she completely understood why I wanted surgery and was always looking to the future and the positives and telling me how fabulous I was going to look and feel with new boobs. Surgery day was fabulous! Sascha came to see me and my parents before and was so reassuring and I knew I was making the right decision. I think my parents were more scared than me and she also took the time and effort to comfort and reassure them and personal went back to my hospital room to meet my parents and tell then I was out of surgery and in recovery. At home after surgery I started to worry myself because they were swelling and the Bra was tight and well I'm just a big worrier anyway. I emailed Sascha just to describe my recovery and if she thought there was any cause for concern and also sent pictures of bruises etc just to make sure it was all normal. She replied basically straight away and calmed me down describing everything, telling me it was normal but to go and see her the next day just so she could have a look and reassure me even more. 3 weeks after surgery I have seen Sascha 4 times and countless emails sent backwards and forwards. She will always make the time for her patients whether your concerns are silly or not and she has also been so complimentary of her work, my new boobs! My boobs look fabulous and I can't wait to start living my life as the new confident me, thank you Sascha!!
