I recently had a small operation conducted by Professor Ali, he was first class in every way. I was really pleased with the way I was treated whilst in his care and also over the moon with the result of the operation. Brilliant.

NC, Patient

Professor Ali’s relaxed but professional manner was perfect for inspiring confidence. He explained clearly the risks and benefits of each stage of the procedure. I am very satisfied with the outcome.

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

Since my first consultation with Professor Ali, he has always been very professional, concerned with the patient’s well-being and understood exactly what my diagnosis was. Explained things with care and patience not leaving any doubt as patient. He was also very attentive and saved me from an emergency once.

Patient, Manchester

Professor Ali (and his lovely nurse) put me at ease with his kind and caring manner. He explained my procedure, answered all of my questions and gave me treatment options. My biopsy also went very well and my wound has healed nicely.

WO, Patient

I met with Professor Faisal Ali to discuss treatment options for a BCC and he talked with me at a level appropriate to my understanding, it was done with the utmost sensitivity and gentleness. I was very relaxed throughout the consultation ( something I do not always experience !) and this was because of Professor Ali’s gift of emanating calm reassurance. His warm, kind and caring manner goes beyond that which is often experienced in similar consultations, he is a testimony of exemplary care and understanding.

Patient, Cheshire

Very helpful, professional, friendly and explained everything step by step. Very much inspires confidence and very happy with treatment received.

Overall, my experience with Professor Ali was outstanding. I’m not used to being a patient but Professor Ali quickly put any nerves to rest in championing both a professional and friendly manner. He also offered expert advice I was not able to obtain from other healthcare professionals, ascertained all my ideas, addressed all my concerns and met all my expectations. His communication was stellar, empathy profound and bedside manner was excellent. All in all, Professor Ali is a brilliant doctor and I’m so pleased that I saw him; absolutely my first port of call for any future dermatology complaints!

Patient, Manchester

Professor Ali was amazing and someone we would definitely recommend

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.
