Reviews
I have been having botox injections for my blepharospasm for over 25 years, but nobody has been as gentle or accurate as Dr. Baig.
I recently attended my second appointment with Dr. Baig for botox to prevent migraines. Dr. Baig was brilliant, made everything clear and made me feel very comfortable. The treatment was hugely effective, with no side effects.
I find my visits to Fahd highly professional yet warm and reassuring. He is hugely knowledgeable about Blepharospasm (as well as many other things) and incredibly dexterous. I feel in very safe hands. Fahd treats me as an individual - he is aware of my potential anxieties and responds to my concerns with sensitivity and insight. As well as all of this, I leave my appointments with a bit of new medical knowledge or a fun story to take home!
As always I had complete confidence in my appointment with and treatment by Dr Baig this week. There is always a review of how I have been since the last treatment and then a discussion as to whether anything needs changing which currently, I’m happy to say, it doesn’t. He always takes time to listen to me and answer and explain any queries I have and is always extremely patient. I feel very fortunate that he was recommended to me when my previous neurologist retired.
Dr Fahd Baig has truly given me my life back. I’ve been seeing him for the past two years to treat my cervical dystonia, his unguided Botox injections every 12–14 weeks have consistently provided excellent relief and stability. He is personable, compassionate, and incredibly knowledgeable, which gives me complete confidence at every visit. He listens, explains everything clearly, and tailors treatment so that I can function at my best between appointments. I’m grateful for his expertise and the steady, reliable care. I really couldn’t recommend him more highly.
Dr. Baig was extremely helpful and very knowledgeable. He took the time to listen carefully and provided thorough advice regarding my diagnosis and prognosis. I truly appreciated his thoughtful approach and would highly recommend his services.
Dr Baig is always: friendly, professional and efficient. He always explains what he needs to do and how he will be executing the actions. He constantly tries to come up with methods and techniques that will reduce any pain.
Dr Baig has transformed my health. From struggling to walk, work and enjoy life before my first appointment, thanks to his expert treatment I can now live my life again.
At all of my appointments with Dr Baig, I have always found him ready to listen, and to suggest and discuss possible changes to treatment.
I have. been seeing Mr Baig for treatment for my Blepherospasm having Seen Dr Marion previously. He has been kind attentive and sympathetic at all times and has administered the Botox with great care.
