I would highly recommend Neil Pattani. I have been under his care for a number of months and was operated on for a papilloma in January. He was very easy to talk to and put me at ease immediately. He was kind, caring and professional at all times. LW

Mr Patani is exceptional, his knowledge and expertise is clear to see but coupled with his gentle but deeply reassuring demeanour made me feel that I was in the very safest of hands and incredibly blessed. When one is rather daunted about their future and the journey they face, that is hugely comforting and hard to put into words. Thank you Mr Patani to you and your wonderful team.

Mr Patani is a delightful consultant. He was very reassuring whilst also setting out the facts and possible outcomes of the biopsy in clear language. When phoning (at the planned time) with the results he was again clear and reassuring. I wouldn't want to go anywhere else for my breast care.

Explanation

I am extremely pleased with my treatment with Mr Patani, and would highly recommend him and the London Breast Institute. I had a breast abscess (caused by mastitis) that I was being treated for elsewhere without improvement. Mr Patani saw me very quickly and was hugely understanding and rigorous, putting in place a thorough treatment plan which resolved the issue. I have had a number of appointments with Mr Patani, and he and all the nurses have made this painful situation a much more pleasant one with their kind and positive approach, and reassuring expertise. I wish I had seen him and the team as soon as this issue arose and am grateful for all his help.
