Dr. Zainab's calm demeanor put me at ease and her expertise, active listening and clear explanations helped create a simple yet effective treatment for acne that is tailored to my preferences.

Dr Laftah was very kind in her approach to my wife, who was quite nervous as she has been ill for a number of years and has had some not so great medical experiences. Dr Laftah put her at ease and was able to immediately diagnose the issue, which had been repeatedly misdiagnosed by the GP. She gave us a very specific and comprehensive treatment plan to follow, which has worked wonders and given my wife such relief. She also took the time to listen to another issue she has ongoing and has referred us to a colleague and helped us also with that. Couldn’t recommend her highly enough, we’re very grateful. Thank you!

Dr. Laftah had the ability to make me feel both relaxed while at the same time reassured that I was being seen by someone who was supremely qualified.
5
Dr Laftah was patient and understanding in listening to my concerns. I felt like she took the time to understand my problem and only then had a closer look, which I really appreciated after years of being misdiagnosed. She then suggested a reasonable treatment that worked really well. I would definitely recommend Dr Laftah.
