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

Patient

Prof Ali was very professional and pleasant, listened, resolved issues during the apt and for longer term issues suggested course of action and treatment plan which I was happy with. Happy with my experience and outcomes and would go back to Prof Ali for any further treatment if needed.

Patient

The consultation was very thorough and comprehensive. My concerns were addressed fully. Conclusions and after-care were explained thoroughly. I would have no hesitation in consulting him again.

Patient, Macclesfield

I had a small freckle removed and sent for biopsy by Dr Ali and his lovely nurse. Dr Ali explained fully what he was going to do in a very warm and professional manner. His lovely assistant was so kind when the injection was going in and gave me her hand to squeeze, I must add the injection was relatively pain free!

I would highly recommend Dr Ali to anyone needing a dermatologist, if I ever need anything else, I would not hesitate to go back. I had nothing to worry about at all and was in very safe hands.

Patient

Professional, knowledgeable, friendly & fantastic advice. With a joint agreement of next steps and treatment

Patient

Professor Ali was very knowledgeable and quickly reassured me that the new moles on my face were harmless. I followed through with a procedure to have them removed which was equally efficient with his caring manner and focus on detail and patient care. Would definitely recommend him.

Patient

At my consultation, Dr Ali suggested a shave biopsy of a problematic spot on my scalp. The following Monday, Dr. Ali called me with the results to confirm diagnosis of nodular basal cell carcinoma and outlined a number of treatment options. I opted for Mohs micrographic surgery that weekend.

I am extremely grateful to Dr. Ali and will not hesitate to request consultation with him if I have future dermatology concerns.

Patient

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

Doctor Faisal Ali is very professional and helpful. My daughter has eczma and he help her a lot. Her skin is better now, she’s not scratching any more, she is sleeping better. Her skin is in very good condition now.I highly recommend him to anyone.

Doctor Faisal deserves more than 5 stars.I visited a lot of doctors and only he help my daughter. Thank you.

Patient

Professor Ali is friendly and approachable: he explained his diagnosis and treatment plan in very clear terms to me and answered all of my questions. I left his office feeling very confident in his ability to resolve my issue. I would have no hesitation at all in recommending him.
