Reviews
I visited Ms de Sousa as a last minute appointment followed the cancellation of an NHS appointment at the breast clinic. I was very worried about what a change to my breast might mean but Ms da Sousa immediately put me at my ease. She has a very calm and reassuring manner, she was very thorough, examined me, sent me for tests and was able to reassure me that everything was fine within the hour!
Ms De Sousa was very reassuring and explained everything well to me- easy to talk to-would recommend, thank you.
Ms Emma de Sousa was professional from the beginning to end. Very caring and reassuring with a thorough examination which may me feel very content that I was okay. Will be coming to see Emma every six months for regular check ups.
Ms De Sousa is helping me to deal with an unexpected and unwelcome breast cancer diagnosis. Never before have I been looked after by a medical consultant who has such empathy and understanding. I’m not scared to ask questions (I have loads), and always feel reassured that I am being given the right care, advice and treatment. Emma De Sousa is a real credit to the medical profession - I’m so glad I found her! 💕
I can not say enough good things about Ms De Sousa , such an amazing surgeon, doctor and person. I feel incredibly lucky to be her patient, she is the most professional, talented, compassionate doctor I have come across and her incredible manner made a frightening and difficult time less scary. I can never thank Ms DeSousa enough for everything she has done for me and I can not recommend her enough. She really is one in a million!
Very thorough, excellent service. Easy to speak to. I felt confident with Ms de Sousa.
