I first saw Professor Mokbel after an initial biopsy was done and I was awaiting results from the NHS. And I am so glad I did. He was able to tell me upon examination that the lump in my lymph node was most likely cancerous. From then on everything moved very quickly with various scans and a referral to an incredible oncologist (Professor Mokbel works with a world class team). 7 months on and I have had a complete response. My initial reaction was to have a double mastectomy but Professor Mokbel explained that in my particular case, a minimally invasive surgery would result in a better outcome. His recommendations are always data driven and backed by the latest research. I had a wide local excision and an axillary lymph node dissection which only required the removal of the sentinel lymph node. I had very little pain from the surgery and 2 weeks out I have great mobility in my arm. There is also no noticeable unevenness in my breasts, if anything they look more even post surgery! I feel very lucky to have been under the care of Professor Mokbel and his team at LBI (in particular his specialist nurse Oonagh). I really couldn't have been in better hands.

I knew one side book the appointment I was in good man and now as a postop, I’m so happy I’m glad I made that a decision by choosing Prof Mokbel as my surgeon

I have been diagnosed during a routine check up by another surgeon - the experience was to say the least very traumatic the way the diagnosis was handled and communicated to me, so I knew I needed to find another surgeon who could reassure me that I will be okay. Friends recommended I see Prof Mokbel. From the first consultation I knew I am finally in good hands and found surgeon who is not only technically brilliant but also cares about his patients. After consultation I needed to do some scans and Prof Mokbel personally checked on me how my first ultrasound went at the LBI and was generally very positive and caring the way he communicated and explained my diagnosis and the way forward. I am still relatively young and naturally was very anxious as to how my breast is going to look like after mastectomy as well as scarring. I did not know what to expect and was very positively surprised how natural my “new” breast looked and felt. I am still undergoing post surgery care with Prof as only three weeks post surgery and all of his team is extremely supportive and caring. I can highly recommend Prof Mokbel to anyone who was recently diagnosed and is not sure yet what surgeon to choose. As far as I am aware there is no other surgeon in london who is confident enough to do mastectomy through areola incision with minimal scaring and such amazing cosmetic result! Thank you Prof Mokbel and your brilliant and caring nursing team for being there for me!

Prof Mokbel is very competent, thorough and good at his work. Highly recommended.

Dr Mokbel has always had a very professional yet kindly manner when i have met him. He has always advised me well on how to look after my health and what vitamins i should be taking and what i should be doing. Kind, precise & professional. Im a big fan.

I feel most reassured and safest when Professor Mokbel is in charge of my care. He has organised my post-operative monitoring very meticulously. The cosmetic result of my recent lumpectomy is so good that there is symmetry with the non-operated side and difficult to tell at first glance which breast had the surgery. My recent ultrasound scan was all clear, got done very efficiently and can now relax until the next mammogram in 6 months. I really have the best surgical and medical treatment with Professor Mokbel.

Professor Mokbel is an amazing leading expert in breast surgery and also has super-specialist expertise in using the wireless Savi Scout marker to enable more precise removal of tumours. Professor Mokbel explained my situation very clearly and concisely. I initially saw him for a second opinion after being advised somewhere else to undergo major surgery (mastectomy, complete axillary lymph node clearance and reconstruction). But because I’d already had a complete response to chemotherapy, it was actually more appropriate to de-escalate my treatment plan: Professor Mokbel informed me about published evidence that lumpectomyand targeted dissection of 2 axillary lymph nodes followed by radiotherapy was more beneficial in my particular case. I had this surgery as day case and went home the same afternoon. I have a great cosmetic result without need for reconstruction, can move my arm normally and do not have an “elephant arm” (lymphoedema) that would have been high risk with the other, more major surgery. As an added bonus, Professor Mokbel also gave me detailed dietary advice which he has a specialist interest in as well. I am now free of cancer, living a normal life and feel extraordinarily lucky to be under the phenomenal care of Professor Mokbel.

Caring, professional and thorough Professor. Made my experience smooth and gave me thorough information about my case. Thank you

Professor Mokbel has looked after me for years. He is a lovely man, who is very caring and answers any questions very thoroughly.

My journey began in 2005 - I feel very fortunate to be under the care of Professor Kefah Mokbel. I have had many procedures with Prof Mokbel and always feel at ease. He is the utmost professional. Very calm and always explains everything so brilliantly. I am super happy with the results of my double mastectomy/reconstruction. A highly skilled perfectionist. Thank you to Prof Mokbel and his wonderful team at The Princess Grace Hospital.
