A pleasure to have Dr Alkali for my roaccutane treatment. Understood the reasons of why I wanted to start this medication after around 10 years of struggling with acne and not having any luck with other medications. Appreciated my worries of side effects so started on a low dose and slowly titrated up leaving me with manageable and very little side effects so far. During coronavirus it has not been possible to have face-to-face consultations but telephone consultations have always been on time, thorough and efficient.

Dr Alakli is incredible! Gave me a diagnosis quickly and started me on a treatment of my choice straight Away, always active in giving the best advice and always there to help, my skin condition is a lot better than what it was and made me feel more comfortable.
