Explanation

At my initial consultation with Mr Latheef, he explained to me thoroughly what to expect when applying the cream to my face. He showed me various photographs of previous patients faces, so I knew what to expect in my treatment for some pre-cancerous cells on my face, which healed after a short period of time. I found him to be very efficient, and I had complete confidence in his advice. Since being under his care, I am now cured, thanks to him.

My partner and I were unlucky enough to have dermatological problems at the same time, but lucky enough to both be referred to Dr Latheef. I have to say his understanding and reassurance of both of our skin issues - mine with an allergy and my partners with a condition called Lichen Planus, was exceptional. He went out of his way to support us, not just meeting face to face, but with me telephone calls to help me understand the complexities of having an allergy to fragrance and beeswax. His recommendations in how to treat both issues have had significant results. We would both highly recommend Dr Latheef.

I was under the care of Dr Latheef for fairly severe acne. Throughout my time in his car, right from the initial consultation, I found him extremely helpful and always willing to spend time explaining the available options. The treatment plan he provided had a very positive impact on my acne and it is much improved since finishing the main course of medication. He's excellent at communication and I would have no issues in recommending him to anyone seeking help with acne.

Dr latheef has give me so much confidence after having acne for 5 years. I tried pricey "guaranteed" products and treatments in which I was left feeling disheartened and frustrated as nothing was working, I was spending hundreds of pounds on facials, peels, creams etc and kept thinking the next treatment would work for me ... it didn't. Dr Latheef is very professional and made me feel relaxed and at ease. I am now acne free! Which is something I never thought I would be and it's all thanks to his knowledge within dermatology.

I first met Dr Latheef, when I went with my sister for her acne troubles, I found him very friendly, thorough and he was keen of giving lots of advice to help my sister through the course of her medication. I was then referred to Dr Latheef myself for some problematic moles that needed to be removed. He made me feel at ease with the whole process from start to finish. When I went in to have them removed, I felt relaxed and confident that the right person was doing the procedure. Dr Latheef allowed me to ask any questions and raise concerns that I had and answered them with great detail providing me with reliant information. The aftercare that he provided filled me with confidence and allowed me to seek more guidance and help with aftercare for my Keloid scars. Overall I would recommend Dr Latheef for any Dermatology needs that you may have and cannot thank him enough for helping me.

Having struggled with my skin for the most part of my life, I seemed lost of finding a solution quick enough. However never did I think I would be able to rectify the situation with a practical solution that wouldn’t effect my life. Needless to say I was proved wrong. Dr Latheef as a doctor, person and dermatologist has truly fulfilled every aspect of his job. If it wasn’t for his avid interest in his patient or his insightful knowledge on the skin, he is treating my skin and has been for the past 6 months. While nervous to start roaccutane, he reassured the pressure, my self consciousness and vulnerability of having problem skin could be resolved quickly and efficiently. His nature, care and compassion for his job and patients shine through and he has truly changed the skin game. My skin is thriving and while he has the job to prescribe me the medication, he also makes sure he gives you enough follow up advice to last you a lifetime. Truly a generous, intelligent and thorough doctor, who I would highly recommend.

I would give Dr Latheef 10 stars plus if I could! After being referred to a dermalogica clinic for a persistent eye irritation of which I'd tried many creams etc. over a long period of time, the GP was worried it actually looked like sun damage and referred me to Dr Latheef. This appointment was going to take a few week's and I was really worried, so I looked up Dr Latheef and found he actually had a private clinic at Nuffield in Leeds and I was able to get an appointment for the very next day! Dr Latheef was amazing and took the time to listen to me without me feeling rushed. He very quickly put my mind at rest and said it wasn't sun damage and looked more like an allergy and he also had a very good idea what I was allergic to. Dr Latheef asked if I would like patch testing done and exlplained how it all worked and if I was able to attend Chapel Allerton hospital the week after on the Mon Wed Fri for my patches to be applied. The patches work really well, I had them applied to my back and the tops of my arms. They were slightly uncomfortable at first but soon settled down. Also, I could not to get them wet, but this wasn't a problem at all. After a couple of days I had the patches removed and the ones that showed up positive were actually the ones that Dr Latheef suspected which turned out to be acrylates. I was so relieved that I didn't mind what so ever I could no longer have my nails done with anything containing acylics. Dr Latheef was there for the whole process and was extremely attentive making sure I understood the process and outcome. He is a really lovely man and I would recommend anyone who suffers with skin related conditions to go see him.

Dr. Latheef is an excellent dermatologist that I cannot recommend enough. I have seen multiple doctors, over many years, for my skin challenges, and Dr. Latheef is one of the best. He cares about patient concerns, provides very clear and informative instructions and feedback, and seems genuinely concerned that the patient is happy with the results and treatment plan. In Dr. Latheef's office I felt I had met a medical advocate, not just an expert. He really listens, and is eager to inform about the issues and treatments related to patient concerns. I look forward to seeing Dr. Latheef again and I can confidently suggest him for anyone.

After over 50 years of struggling with a most unsightly skin complaint and having tried different remedies I was eventually referred to Dr Latheef. He listened sympathetically and after ordering a second biopsy he prescribed two creams which I used for only a fortnight before I could see a noticeable improvement. I can now wear sleeveless dresses and shorter skirts. I am very grateful to Dr. Latheef for his care and diagnosis. He is my hero!! Thank you Dr Latheef.
