While ill for other reasons, two separate areas on the side of my face formed scabs and would not heal. After a referral, I had to find a dermatologist that I could trust. I am a person that finds it hard to trust anyone, but this was next to my eye! Dr Arif Aslam stood out immediately due to his website, as it was clean and informative. In person, he was precise and exactly who I needed. As I had two separate problems, one complex, I went through two sessions of Mohs surgery and was able the second time to fully observe the organisation and the process. I must also highlight the high quality of the team, and facilities, assembled by Dr Aslam. That includes the hidden technician. The aim of the Mohs process is to remove all the cancer, and the least possible of the person. Without this process the choice for the surgeon is either play it safe by removing too much, or risk a repeat operation. With the Mohs process, it becomes a skill decision instead. For me, all it meant was a small wait while the the initial surgery results were prepared by the hidden technician. The wait was very calming in a comfy environment with refreshments. For both my cancers Dr Aslam managed to remove them fully on the first surgery. The unexpected part was Dr Aslam's organisation, and instructions to the nurses. He was very calm and precise. There were always nurses in the room with me. There are a few areas I should highlight. The first is about the instructions for after the surgery, both written and oral. With Dr Aslam's and his team's care, I actually felt obliged to make the same effort and follow the instructions exactly. I would also recommend buying a few extra pillows before the surgery. I found it better to refuse offers of a mirror after the surgery, as I felt I could trust Dr Aslam to do what is best. The outcome was well beyond my expectations, and has already resulted in another going to the doctors for a similar problem. As I said I was ill for other reasons, and Dr Aslam worked around, and mitigated those problems. What I did not expect was to feel so much better after the surgery. Thank you.

Jayaram Srinivasan is a very polite unassuming gentle man. He explained the procedure the possible side effects and expected outcomes In great detail. He made me feel very comfortable about the procedure, and is a very skilled surgeon. I was very happy with the results of my surgery.

I came to Mr Khor with 2 cysts I wanted removing and straight away he made me feel comfortable, relaxed and heard were as others who I had seen about my problem had not. Mr Khor explained in depth about how he was going to continue with my procedure, explained any possible complications and give me great reassurance and after care advice. Fortunately Mr Khor was able to carry out my treatment after my consultation on the same day which I was very grateful for as I was not local to the area and continually checked in on my during the small wait time after my consultation. During my procedure Mr Khor made me feel in capable hands and was overall a pleasant experience. A week later I saw Mr Khor again for a follow up appointment and once again was made to feel welcome and relaxed. My recovery albeit small is going very well and I’m pleased with the minimal scarring Mr Khor has able to achieve, I would highly recommend him to anyone.
