Miss Deol is beyond amazing. Her calm, professional, and gentle approach has made my whole breast cancer journey so much easier than I expected it to be. She always ensures that I have the best care, and answers every question honestly, and with great kindness. I honestly do not think that I would have made it through my treatment. With my sanity intact. Without her by my side. She is a brilliant consultant surgeon, and just one all-round amazing lady. I feel so lucky to have her in my corner. Thank you Harleen, from the bottom of my heart.

After checking in at the main reception, which was just as pleasant, my time with Dr. Deol was very comfortable and she made me feel at ease. She answered all of my questions and asked me if I had any other questions or concerns. She advised me on how to better care for myself. The overall experience was amazing I never once felt I was rushed or misunderstood anything.

This was a routine check up. Miss Deol is a first rate surgeon who I look forward to seeing regardless of what the outpatient outcome might be as I feel fully confident in her ability to diagnose, make a management plan, her skills as a surgeon and her after care and her on-going post treatment check ups

I had a fantastic experience seeing Ms Deol. She made me feel so comfortable from walking through the door, to my examination and then sharing results. She is incredibly warm and reassuring and helps to support you not only during your appointment and care but by giving you ongoing advice of how best to check your breasts and what to be aware of. I would 100% recommend Ms Deol and would choose to see her anytime I have any concern.

Miss Deol is so lovely! I was quite nervous going in but she explained simply and kindly everything they were going to do and the reasons for doing these tests. This really helped put my mind at ease. She has such a reassuring way that you feel in safe hands. The follow up has been quick and again reassuring in that everything is as she explained when she met.

I wanted some advice on future breast monitoring/scanning as I have dense breast tissue and some family history of breast cancer Miss Deal gave me a detailed explanation of how she felt I could monitor my breast health along side the 3 year NHS mammograms and I am very grateful for that advice . She is very kind, a good listener and put me at ease during the consultation.

Miss Deol is kind, caring and extremely personable. From our very first interaction she was able to put me at ease and offer the reassurances I needed. She displays a huge amount of empathy and explains everything clearly and concisely, always checking that the information she’s shared has been understood. She creates a safe place to ask questions and you never feel rushed. Her authenticity shines through.
