- From the moment I first zoomed with Ms Rashmi Yadav I knew I was in the best hands possible. Her honest and knowledgeable approach is so reassuring. Her skill set second to none and her ability to make you feel like a unique human being and not just another patient is what sets her apart. I have been so well looked after by her and her team and continue to be so. When you’ve been treated by Ms Yadav you know you’ve literally had your heart in her hands, physically and metaphorically ❤️ Thank you
- Dr. Rashmi Yadav and her team is very experienced in cardiac surgeries. I was being taken care very well in the hospital as well as follow-up. I would strongly recommend her to anyone asks me. The reason I gave 4* for the facilities because I was told the X-ray machine in the clinic is not in operation after 5pm. I have to walk 15min under windy and cold weather back to the main building to take an X-Ray and another 15min to walk back.
- From the first consultation to the successful invasive procedure at Royal Brompton, my experience with Rashmi was outstanding. Her clarity, compassion, and surgical skill gave me total confidence. Recovery was smooth, and transformative. Im deeply grateful.
- Ms Yadav is an outstanding Cardiac Surgeon. My experience from start to finish was excellent. I can not talk more highly of Ms Yadav and her team at the Royal Brompton.
- An excellent and very professional surgeon - I can not recommend her highly enough.
- An extremely competent and charming professional who instils confidence with her knowledge and ability. She and her team certainly excelled in my less than straight forward but successful procedure.
- Excellent level of attention, knowledge and medical treatment.
- Highly skilled surgeon, who did a great job with my CABG. Excellent team all around. Rashmi is very personable, friendly and a good communicator. Rashmi Yadav and her team are a credit to her profession
- Ever grateful thanks from myself and my family to Ms Yadav and her team for her exceptional care, her confidence, warm and friendly manner in what was a complex cardiac procedure.
