Dr Dala-Ali was so brilliant with our 2 year old that she believes going to the doctors is a fun activity. It is a very scary thing for us as parents to have our child go through surgery, especially at such a young age. Dr. Dala-Ali was so patient and thorough from Day 1 and really treated our child as he would his own. We are very fortunate to have such a professional and kind doctor/surgeon look after our child.

Positive and reassuring experience during recent appointment. Mr Dala-Ali has a fantastic manner with children to help them feel at ease and comfortable in sharing how they are feeling. Takes time to explain any results and scans in a simple but effective way.

A consultant with an ability to explain to young people what is happening in a friendly and efficient manner, and to find the right balance with parents regarding information sharing. Further, a consultant who doesn't put operating at the top of their agenda unless critical. What a find! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Mr Dala-Ali.

Mr Dala-Ali was excellent in treating our son's broken hand. We originally went via the NHS, but decided to switch to Benan, and we are very pleased we did. He suggested a far easier recovery plan, xrays were taken without any waiting around, and he we incredibly professional and reassuring throughout.
