I have been under the care of Dr Baig for over two years, seeing him every three months for treatment. He takes time and care to really understand the impact of each treatment and to make subtle adjustments accordingly. I never feel rushed, or made to feel wrong, or overly emotional. He listens carefully, takes the time he needs to think deeply about what changes of medication or treatment are best. He tells me the honest truth about what's possible and what's not and manages my expectations with grace and honesty. He responds patiently and thoughtfully to my husband's questions and quietly responds when we all need a bit of humour to break the tension. Despite the difficult condition I have, his treatment and humanness gives me hope and much needed reassurance. I am so thankful to have him in my corner.

Over the last two years, I have been lucky to have benefitted from not only Dr Baig’s knowledge and expertise but his moral support. He has successfully managed to get to a point where he has found the right ‘recipe’ for the injections I receive in order to get me back to a more manageable and ‘normal’ day to day life. He refers to this progress as something that “we” have done. I feel we are a team. He is genuinely pleased when I say things are easier. Having my injections is never pleasant but he is very calm and manages to make it as quick and painless as possible. Meige Syndrome is not an easy thing to live with but I have enormous confidence in and gratitude to Dr Baig in making me feel that I am fully supported in having to live with it.

Nothing but praise for Dr Baig. I visit regularly for treatment for my cervical dystonia. Dr Baig puts me at ease and has given me a positive outlook for the future, regarding my treatment. I would recommend him to anyone who needs support and excellent treatment.

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.
