Professor 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.
KM, Patient
It’s a pleasure to visit Prof Ali. The best in his field and you certainly feel you’re in safe hands. A true professional and a lovely caring man. Highly recommended.
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
Dr Ali was a really easy person to deal with. He quickly got to the root of the problem and discussed all options with me.
Patient
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
Dr Ali dermatologist is a first rate doctor, My treatments have been excellent and my surgeries have been successful. I thoroughly recommend him
Patient
Had a consultation with professor Ali. Very happy with the outcome. Had a thorough skin examination and he prescribed an ointment to sort out my problem. Nice man to deal with, eased my nerves.
Patient
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
