The service provided by Dr Ali and his team was first rate. Dr Ali went out of his way to make sure we agreed the most appropriate plan for me, and I got the best treatment, as quickly as possible. I could not have asked for a better level of care and attention.

Patient

Dr Ali was recommended to me for the diagnosis of a skin condition. I am so pleased with the way in which he dealt with my biopsy surgery. He is very caring, courteous and fully explained the procedure he carried out. I was quite concerned regarding the biopsy results, but he made me feel confident that whatever the result, I would be in good hands.

Fortunately it was a good outcome and he so kindly rang me as soon as the results came through. This was such a caring thing to do. I will have no hesitation in returning to him for my skin problems in the future and would highly recommend him to anyone.

Patient

Professor Ali is an extremely skilled professional who truly takes his time during appointments, with no rush or ‘clock-watching.’ His respectful approach, combined with his deep knowledge in the field, makes every visit comfortable and reassuring. If you’re searching for a top dermatologist, I highly recommend Professor Ali. You’ll be in excellent hands!

Patient

In July 2022 Dr Ali diagnosed a Right Nasal Ala Basel Cell Carcinoma which had started out as a small mole, but had now grown a lot larger and had started to bleed. The NHS waiting time was twelve weeks but Dr Ali saw me in a week at The Spire Regency Hospital in Macclesfield. On 13 August I had the Mohs Micrographical Surgery and a skin graph from my right shoulder to aid the recovery at Discover Laser Clinic at Burnley. A week later Doctor Ali changed the dressing at the Spire Hospital in Manchester.

It is now six months later and all I have to show for the surgery are two tiny scars. I would like to thank Doctor Ali and his team for their excellent, kind and considerate care, and wish them all the best in the future

Patient

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

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

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

I found Professor Ali to be friendly and very professional, also very knowledgeable about his work of course, and a highly skilled surgeon. He was kind and thoughtful and I could not fault him.

Patient

I was deeply impressed by Professor Ali’s professional knowledge, skill and attention to detail. He took considerable time to be sure of the best form of treatment to follow. I am very pleased with the outcome.

Patient, London

I would like to say a huge thank you to Professor Faisal Ali (and his lovely nurse) for making my procedure so painless and stress free I cannot thank him enough.

RH, Patient
