As Featured on TV and national media
Professor Ali was very approachable and easy to talk to. I felt comfortable discussing my issues and left my appointment satisfied with the service I received.
Patient, Cheshire
Professor Ali explained fully what he was going to do in a very warm and professional manner. The procedure was painless and quick which I found amazing. Highly recommended!
CN, Patient
Professor Ali took the time to listen to my dermatology issues, made a confident proposal of a treatment plan and gave me the opportunity to ask questions and addressed my concerns. Despite the nature of the issue he was reassuring and made me feel at ease to discuss possible triggers and I am very appreciative of the advice and treatment he was able to offer.
Patient, Cheshire
Professor Ali, put me at ease and was very thorough in his examination and clearly explained the procedure and I was comfortable with this. Procedure carried out quickly and I was treated with expertise . The whole experience was faultless, thank you
Patient, Manchester
My experience with Professor Ali was excellent. At each appointment he explained everything clearly and always took the time to ensure all my questions and concerns were addressed.
I originally was scheduled to have a BCC removed from my scalp and a skin graph done to cover up. However fortunately I went to see Professor Ali and he informed me of the Mohs surgery that not only reduces the need for skin graph and visual appearance is better, it also has a higher success rate of removing the cancer. I googled this also to understand the facts. Professor Ali performed the surgery, for which my family have said the scar is unnoticeable. I am happy for him to share the pictures for others if required. I would also like to add that aside from his skillful procedure, he has a very friendly nature which i think is very important when you are being treated medically to ease any anxieties.
Patient
Professor Ali is very insightful and has provided fantastic advice and treatment. He answered all questions I asked with precision, and his approachable and friendly manner was much appreciated! He has helped me massively and I highly recommend him to anyone seeking dermatology treatment.
Patient
I spent a day with Professor Ali and his staff having a procedure to remove skin cancer from my temple. It was removed in stages so as to minimise scarring. A small piece of skin was removed each time, then analysed. This happened 3 times throughout the day until all the cancerous skin had been removed. The wound was then neatly stitched by Professor Ali and I was allowed home. Throughout the whole procedure Professor Ali kept me informed and reassured me of what was happening and answered any questions I had. He is a very pleasant, approachable man as are all the nurses and staff I encountered during my procedure. I would highly recommend him.
Patient, London
I was given a personal recommendation to see Professor Ali by a fellow Doctor. He is an expert in the field of Dermatology.
I went to him with regards to a skin related condition. We worked together over several weeks and he was extremely helpful in investigating what the causes were.
It was a pleasure to be in his presence and having him as my Doctor. Caring, knowledgeable and really does take a high-level interest in his patients.
Very high calibre and experienced Dermatologist whose advice and knowledge has helped me immensely.
Patient, Manchester
Professor Ali was extremely friendly and understanding from the off, he let me explain how I felt about my skin and how it had been affecting me day to day. He gave me good options for my treatment and explained them all really well so I knew what to expect. I felt really comfortable throughout my appointments. I would definitely recommend Professor Ali 100%.
Patient, Manchester
