  As a Fulbright Scholar, Miss Petrie undertook two years of full time

lectured, published and presented in her specialist areas at both national and
international level and received awards for her presentations, research,
teaching and clinical work. 

Miss Petrie set up the Oxford Breast Reconstruction Awareness Group and
this charitable group remains one of her ongoing interests, collaborating regularly with the Maggie's centre to counsel patients through their breast reconstruction journey . Miss Petrie's ethos is aimed at delivering evidence-based care of the very highest quality, which is tailored to meet her patients’ individual needs, whatever their age, sex and cultural beliefs. She has received commendations for her care and her ongoing research interests include risk reducing breast reconstruction and the treatment of breast asymmetry.

Every person I encountered throughout my time with this department was so kind, friendly and caring. The receptionists were all friendly and welcoming, both in o/p and the surgery ward. The surgical team were skilled, kind, caring and made me feel at all times that I mattered. We listened to my favourite music, there was always a nurse to chat to me helping me to relax and the surgeons all made sure that I was comfortable and felt safe throughout the procedure. The ward staff were calm and helpful however busy things became and I felt that I was safe and not forgotten. The porters were so cheerful wheeling me with care and making sure I was ok before leaving me. My sincerest thanks to everyone.

I had a bcc between my lip and nose. Ms Petrie explained how she would remove it, the resulting scar and the time it would take to fade. She was incredibly thorough and knowledgeable but at the same time made me feel as if I was her only patient. During the procedure she explained throughout what she was doing, and I felt entirely comfortable. 3 weeks on, I’m amazed how she managed to remove the bcc in such a way that the scar follows my crease and my lip will soon return to its normal shape. Thank you Ms Petrie, I’m so grateful!

Dr Petrie was always very professional and kind; she gave me lots of time to think about things and didn’t ever rush me into anything. She also made sure to explain all likely outcomes and listen to any concerns. I was also happy with both operation results she did, and felt able to contact her afterwards if need be.
