AI Review Summary
This summary was created by AI based on recent reviews
Mr Yazan Masannat is professional, kind, and reassuring in his patient interactions. He gives clear explanations about medical procedures, helping patients feel comfortable and informed. Patients praise his surgery skills, noting good results and much support during their breast cancer journey. His overall approach addresses significant concerns like breast cancer and specific procedures such as sentinel lymph node biopsy.
Mr Masannat combines expert oncologic care with extraordinary empathy. He listened attentively and explained every step of the treatment plan, and consistently made me feel supported. I am grateful not only for his medical skill but for the kindness that he offered me and my husband.
The only thing l would ask for if Dr Masannat could speak a bit slower. As this area was new to me some of the words and names take a while to sink in. Or if we can have 5 minutes with the nurse afterwards just to have a recap as to what was said.
Thank you for your valuable feedback. I appreciate your comment regarding the pace of the consultation and will take this on board. It is important that patients have time to absorb what can often be complex information. We are always happy for patients to speak with the nurse after the consultation to recap the discussion and answer any further questions. Please email my secretary with your details at masannat.admin@LIPS.org.uk and I will contact you and explain things and will also get the breast care nurses to contact you and explain. Thank you again for helping us improve our service. Yazan Masannat
Wonderful experience and Dr Massanat was exceptionally thorough, kind and helpful- outstanding!
Thank you for your kind words. I am delighted that you had a positive experience and found the consultation thorough, helpful, and supportive. Your feedback is greatly appreciated and means a lot to the team and me. Mr Yazan Masannat
I came to discuss my procedure and as always Mr Masannat explained fully what to expect in a clear and caring manner. He always puts me at ease and although breast cancer is the scariest thing I’ve ever gone through-I’m so grateful to have had Mr Masannat as my Surgeon.
Thank you for your very kind words. I am pleased that you felt well informed and supported throughout your care. Facing breast cancer can be an incredibly difficult experience, and I am grateful for the trust you have placed in me.

Mr Masannat puts you at your ease and explains everything fully asking all the time "is there anything you want to know". If you have a choice I'd recommend him 100%.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback. I am delighted that you felt comfortable and well informed during your consultation.

As a man attending this clinic (with overwhelmingly female patients) I was put at ease and dealt with sensitively and with compassion
Thank you for your kind words. We understand that attending a breast clinic can feel particularly daunting for men, and I’m very pleased that you felt comfortable, supported, and well cared for throughout your visit. Best wishes, Mr Yazan Masannat.
I recently attended the One Stop Breast Clinic at The London Clinic under the care of Mr Yazan Masannat, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. The entire process — consultation, scans, and results — was completed in under 1.5 hours, which provided both efficiency and reassurance at a time when clarity matters most. Mr Masannat was calm, thorough, and highly professional, and he explained each step with clarity and compassion. The nurses, technicians, and reception team were equally kind, gentle, and attentive, creating an environment where I felt genuinely supported and looked after throughout my visit. This level of coordinated, patient‑centred care made a meaningful difference, and I am grateful for the seamless and considerate experience.
Thank you for your kind feedback. I’m delighted that your experience at the One Stop Breast Clinic at The London Clinic was reassuring and efficient. It was a pleasure to look after you, and I’m very grateful for your lovely comments about the whole team. Wishing you all the very best.

Targeted axillary dissection: worldwide variations in clinical practice - Breast Cancer Research and Treatment
Purpose Targeted axillary dissection (TAD) for the axillary staging of clinically node-positive (cN +) breast cancer patients converting to clinically node negative post neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC), has gained popularity due to its minimal false negative rate and low arm morbidity. The aim of this study is to shed more light on the variation in the clinical practice globally in terms of indications and perceived limitations of TAD. Methods A panel of expert breast surgeons constructed a structured questionnaire comprising of 18 questions and asked surgeons worldwide for their opinions and routine practice on TAD. The questionnaire was electronically distributed and answers were collected between May 1st and August 1st 2022. Results Responses included 137 entries from 36 countries. Of them, 73.7% consider TAD for cN + patients planned to receive NAC. Among them, the greatest number of respondents (45%) perform the procedure for tumours up to T3, whereas 27% regardless of T-stage. The majority (42%) perform TAD on patients with 1–3 positive nodes and only 30% consider TAD when matted nodes are present. HER2 positive and Triple Negative subtypes are more likely to undergo TAD than Luminal A and B (86%, 79.1%, 39.5%, and 62.8%, respectively). Maximum acceptable lymph node burden is median 3 nodes for any subtype with a tendency to accept more positive nodes for Triple Negative. Conclusion This study demonstrates the differences in current practice regarding TAD as well as the fact that the biology of the tumour heavily affects the method of axillary staging.
