I consider myself extremely fortunate to have been referred to Dr Yadav. From our first meeting I felt completely at home. Dr Yadav is extremely compassionate and understanding, the findings of the tests I had undergone were explained clearly and a course of action was discussed. I’m now 6 weeks post surgery and have been able to resume most of my normal daily activities. I can’t recommend Dr Yadav and her team highly enough and from myself and my family I would like to say thank you for your incredible work.

Miss Yadav and team operated on me in September 2020. Four years after the valve repairs, and a pacemaker fitted, I am strong and doing well. I am playing walking football, and am 80 years old. I will be ever grateful to this fabulous lady and the team at Royal Brompton.

Ms Yadav is a consummate professional. She is kind, effecient and always has time to discuss any worries one might have. I could not recommend her more.
