Dr Kariyawasam was very sympathetic and understanding about my symptoms. She explained things that two consultant gynaecologists I’d seen previously hadn’t. She was very clear, we discussed treatment options and she has a great personal manner. I was very pleased and impressed with my consultation I had with her.
