Reviews
كانت تجربتي مع الدكتورة علي ممتازة جداً. تعاملت معي بكل احترام واهتمام، واستمعت إلى حالتي بدقة وشرحت لي التشخيص وخطة العلاج بطريقة واضحة ومطمئنة. أكثر ما أعجبني هو حرصها الكبير على السرية التامة والخصوصية الكاملة، فقد كان التعامل بمنتهى التكتم والاحترافية، مما جعلني أشعر بالراحة والثقة طوال الزيارة. لاحظت تحسناً واضحاً بعد العلاج، وبكل أمانة أنصح بالدكتورة علي لأي شخص يبحث عن طبيبة جلدية ممتازة، محترفة، وتحترم خصوصية مرضاها
I’ve been struggling with acne for years and Dr Iaisha Ali has been the only consultant to clear my skin! Dr Ali took her time to examine my skin and reassured me with a detailed treatment plan. Within a few weeks my skin started to clear and now i am acne free. My confidence is now back all thanks to her. I would recommend Dr Ali to everyone!
Dr Ali is an exceptional dermatologist. She has been giving me medical advice for many years and I have a very high opinion of her judgment and experience and only come back to her as I know I can trust her advice. I would recommend her highly.
Dr Ali was courteous and very professional. She explained my treatment to me clearly and made me feel Comfortable throughout.
Dr Ali has helped with my hair loss and I’ve been coming to her for years. My hair has never been so full and thick until now. The secretaries Shree and Zara are very helpful and accommodate to any appointment time or date I need - BRILLIANT DERMATOLOGIST & TEAM!
My daughter has struggled with acne since her early teenage years, finding the right doctor who truly understood both the medical and emotional impact of the condition was not easy. I am incredibly grateful to Dr. Iaisha Ali for her genuine care. The treatment plan was tailored and monitored closely and the results have been remarkable.
I can’t recommend Dr Iaisha highly enough. My consultation with her was efficient without ever feeling rushed, and she explained everything clearly before performing a mole removal on my face. The procedure itself was quick, precise, and impressively skilful — healing was smooth, there were zero complications, and I was thrilled with the results. The medication she prescribed worked perfectly too. She’s clearly very knowledgeable and skilled — it’s no surprise she trained in medicine at Oxford. Being in her hands made me feel genuinely reassured throughout, especially given the procedure was on my face. I’d trust her with any skin concern, not just this one, and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dermatologist.
Excellent experience from a kind and very learned doctor. Easy to speak to and very good listener. Highly recommend!
