Dr Mandal led the Royal Free’s sleep and ventilation service to win ‘diagnostic team of the year’ at the 2019 BMJ awards. The team cut the time patients wait for a diagnosis from 239 days to just 40. Dr Mandal, sleep and ventilation consultant, said she was thrilled to have won the award. “We’re really honoured and overwhelmed to have won – it’s thrilling,” she added. “Thank you to all the members of the team, we have worked so hard to devise new ways of treating patients so that we could reduce the waiting time for a diagnosis.”
