Miss May Al-Sahaf

A heartfelt thank you to Ms May Al Sahaf – a truly exceptional surgeon From the very first day we met Ms May Al Sahaf, she made an extraordinary impression on us. We were immediately struck by her professionalism, her depth of knowledge, and her ability to explain complex medical matters with such clarity and understanding. It was clear from our very first encounter that we were in the hands of someone who not only possesses exceptional medical expertise but also genuinely understands the importance of treating patients and their families with care, dignity and respect. During what has been an incredibly difficult and emotional journey for our family, having a surgeon like Ms Al Sahaf has meant more to us than words can express.

My experience with miss may Al Sahaf Was absolutely brilliant she was so passionate about her job and the wellbeing of her patients I couldn’t have been in better hands absolutely wonderful and the staff were amazing

Thoracic surgery at Hammersmith Hospital to remove a mediastinal lesion

A follow-up visit where everything was clearly explained, a procedure was carried out and recommendations given for further management.

Miss May Al-Sahaf is excellent. I had my lower left lobe removed because of a tumor. Miss Al-Sahaf has done a wonderful job talking me through the procedure, the risks and the recovery process. My recovery was very smooth - scarring is minimal and now 6 weeks post op I am completely pain free and back to similar fitness level as before the surgery

I needed a second lung surgery which was an extremely worrying thing to go through, but knowing it would be Miss Al-Sahaf operating again made it so much less scary. She has a calm, clear and no nonsense approach which makes intimidating situations much more manageable. She puts a big focus on recovery and making sure you have everything you need to get back to normal as quickly as possible. I am very grateful to have had her as my surgeon.

Miss May Al -Sahaf has expertly removed 2 of my upper lobes left and right due to cancer. The procedure was explained to me very clearly along with the benefit of surgery to remove the cancers and check margins,lymph nodes etc. Miss May Al -Sahaf is someone l trust greatly as her judgements and skills have saved my life. I hardly have any scars and the pain of surgery wore off after a few weeks. She gave me encouragement and hope when l was on the ward. I am now happy and cancer free.No pain and can enjoy life again thanks to Miss May Al-Sahaf and her team at Hammersmith Hospital.

Absolutely excellent treatment. Miss Al-Sahara is an exceptionally skilled and very conscientious surgeon. At every stage from the decision to have the surgery to post operative steps, Miss Al-Sahaf took great care to explain everything to me fully. The surgery itself was complete success, with minimum cutting and loss lung tissue; and with far less pain and quicker recovery than I had expected.

At a very scary time for me I found the whole process very professional. Everything at every stage was carefully explained which I found very helpful.. My recovery was handled with care.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Dr. May Al-Sahaf for the outstanding care and treatment I received. From the moment I met her, I felt reassured by her professionalism, knowledge, and confidence. Before my surgery, I spent time reading about her experience and achievements, which made me feel much more relaxed and comfortable knowing I was in such capable hands. The surgery was a great success, and throughout the entire process Dr. Al-Sahaf showed exceptional skill, care, and compassion. She took the time to explain everything clearly and made me feel supported every step of the way. I am extremely pleased with the outcome and cannot speak highly enough of Dr. Al-Sahaf and her team. Her expertise and dedication have made a tremendous difference to me, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone needing thoracic surgery. Thank you, Dr. Al-Sahaf, for the excellent care you provided.
