My appointment was dead on time. I was expecting just a simple check over of the procedure Dr Karim had done earlier this year but it was far more thorough being a full body check. Nothing to worry about, I mentioned some dry patches on my head and Dr Karim explained that they were sun damage and recommended a cream that I could purchase and a treatment that he could undertake next Summer. Overall a comfortable experience that was reassuring and helpful.

Visited to understand a skin problem. Dr Karim confirmed the diagnosis, explained what my choices were and told me what the outcome was likely to be. Also checked for other problems and identified that too. In short he did exactly what I wanted.
