I have experienced melasma skin condition for the past 15 years and tried many treatments for it without success. I was treated by Professor Faisal Ali for 4 months, who took time to understand my concerns. The skin condition has now cleared up completely. I am amazed by the results which has given me so much more confidence now. I would highly recommend the service and treatment I received from Professor Ali.

Patient

Great service from Dr Ali and the rest of the team. Thanks

Patient

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

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.

Patient

Dr Ali operated on my husband. The whole experience from initial consultation to early follow up was so very professional. Dr Ali has such a lovely personality and explains everything so very well to both of us and was willing to answer any questions we had, no matter how daft he might of thought them to be and put us both at ease. We would recommend him to anyone, even if you just have a niggling doubt, get Dr Ali to check you out.

Patient

Prof Ali is an excellent Dermatologist. He’s been caring, very thorough and empathetic whilst successfully treating my daughter.

Patient

Very professional and pleasant gentleman. Explained my condition and follow on treatment very well

Patient

I have recently had a basal cell carcinoma removed from my face by Dr Ali, done using the Mohs surgery technique. The standard of surgical work was excellent, and despite the BCC being in a very tricky location, six months on, the scar is hardly visible. Dr Ali’s surgical team who were very professional and put me at ease. At the top of their game!

Patient

Dr Ali was so helpful and attentive, the procedure he carried out for me he did with great care and kept me informed of what he was doing. Also Dr Ali took time to explain to me in detail how best to care for myself after the procedure.

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.
