Dr De Silva is helpful, clear and reassuring.

So reassuring to be treated by a confident yet empathetic consultant. Always felt that both Dr DSM and her secretary would do anything needed to make me feel reassured. Occasional delays in communication did add stress but these were extraordinary events.

Easy to speak to. Answered all my queries & was not made to feel rushed. Felt confident would be able to contact if needed help on the long term therapy.

Dr De Silva-Minor has been looking after me for some years now. She is so thorough and responsive. Cancer is a very frightening diagnosis. I am so pleased to be under Dr De Silva-Minor. She checks and is quick to respond continuously. I highly recommend.

Very happy with my consultation.

I am a GP that was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2021. I consulted with Dr De Silva throughout my year long treatment. She was extremely knowledgeable, empathic and up to date with all the latest therapeutic management options. Highly recommended!

Dr Shiroma De Silva-Minor is a very good doctor. I am glad that I was referred to her. She is a very pleasant and a confident doctor, a good listener. The pros and cons of various treatment options were discussed and the right one for me was found.

Just one comment: I wanted to see the result of my CT scan but, the computer on which the image was shown to me was a tiny one, consequently not very clear and it left me a bit disappointed. I think a proper large monitor would be better this situation.

DR DE SILVA-MINOR , was very helpful and clear in her explanations, about the Radiotherapy treatments, but I am still nervous of my prognosis. Perhaps Dr Lord will tell me more. I agreed to have genetic mutation testing, revealing more of the sudden C.

Dr de Silva-Minor was very kind, informative and listened to any concerns that I had. I had video appointments with the doctor therefore cannot comment on the location or waiting room.

I am very grateful to Dr DSM for her close attention, holistic approach and caring, personal manner - as well, of course, as her obvious expertise and experience. I was given practical suggestions to improve my general well-being after treatment. She also cheered me up!

I have been a patient under Dr De Silva-Minor's care for the past five years and she has always been professional in her approach, but at the same time very caring on a personal level. Having being diagnosed with male breast cancer at the age of 38, it has been tough understanding what was a predominantly female disease. Dr De Silva-Minor has always made the time to explain things to me in a understandable and compassionate way. I would highly recommend being under her care and would not wish for any other Oncologist.

Received amazing care and in a timely manner , backed up by fabulous nursing care and secretarial staff , from beginning to end of my treatment . Highly recommend her .

Dr De Silva’s standard of care and expertise in treating breast cancers are outstanding. Her empathy and listening skills are second to none. Professional, dedicated yet approachable, she spares no effort in achieving the best outcome for her patients. An exceptional oncologist.
