Professor Zoe Winters

Written by a private patient at OneWelbeck

Having originally dealt with another breast cancer consultant (and a plastic surgeon he referred us to), I was not convinced my wife was dealing with the best. After some Googling and AI research, it soon became clear that Prof Winters is one of the UKs most esteemed breast cancer specialists. I reached out to organise a consultation for a second opinion and I'm so glad I did. She explained things in more detail - although it can still be very hard to digest it all as these Professors live and breathe this stuff - and highlighted a number of decisions that had been made and/or checks that had not been done. At the time her clinic was closed whilst she recovered from an operation herself, but she referred us to some of the other leaders in her field who we also felt reassured by. We also received her consultation letter extremely quickly. To add, going through this sort of process is extremely stressful and worrying. Beyond the expertise and wealth of knowledge that Prof Winters has, she is also supported by her amazing secretary Jenny. Jenny replied to me at all hours, helped with any questions I had and also helped chased up results we needed. She is simply brilliant. If you need experts in the field of breast cancer, who can properly support you and care for you, you won't go wrong engaging with Prof Winters and her team.

I am so, so pleased that I went to see Professor Zoe Winters. She is a highly dedicated, fierce, kind and inspiring professional (with a great sense of humour). I have felt confident that I am in safe hands from diagnosis all the way through to surgery after-care. It's hard not to go over the top with the nice words about her, so some more practical/concrete things: -I never felt rushed by her. Professor Zoe is detail-orientated, explaining her thinking, her investigations and always ready to answer any questions. She sent great notes and also up to date research when I had questions. -Her surgical handiwork is very neat and tidy and she wants her patients to be happy in their bodies. -She has a network of esteemed specialists to whom she can get quick referrals. -At my first appointment, I did not feel dismissed due to 'young' age - she took her time with me anyway. This did not match previous experiences and I will be forever grateful. -The one stop clinic is excellent - to be seen for everything you may need in the one afternoon makes a massive difference to the information flow and diagnosis process. -Her close team is awesome - clinical nurses Helen and Angela are kind, approachable and knowledgable, and Jenny the practice manager is extraordinarily efficient and helpful. Together with Professor Winters, they fight to get you what you need, which takes a huge mental load off during what can be a stressful period.

Zoe was very educational and informative about what she was doing and what she thought was happening in my situation. She was very thorough and direct with her communication which I appreciated.

If you are considering booking an appointment with Professor Zoe Winters, do not hesitate. I wish that I had spoken to her months ago. Whilst talking to Professor Winters; she explained so many aspects of breast cancer that I had not known, it was really reassuring and it also meant that I could stop all the googling, which I have been guilty of for the past few months. I felt total confidence in the various aspects as she described them to me. It is very frightening to have a great cancer diagnosis, but when you are able to listen to and discuss all of your fears with an expert; it definitely helps to lift the constant worry and uncertainty. I was also able to have an immediate ultrasound scan. I am also so very grateful for the prompt letters and communications that were sent to me within a couple of days. It was an exceptionally good appointment and I cannot thank or recommend Professor Winters enough.
