I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Alwan and would recommend him to anyone looking for high-quality care. He was very patient with me despite the fact that I was very late for my appointment. The consultation was not rushed and I felt that my concerns were taken seriously. I really appreciated that he recognised the urgency of my concerns and was able to book me in for a treatment on the same day.

Dr Ferras Alwan is incredibly compassionate, friendly, and always willing to help. From the very first appointment, he made me feel comfortable and genuinely cared for. He took the time to listen, explain everything clearly, and never makes me feel rushed. I always leave appointments feeling reassured and well looked after. It’s rare to find a doctor who combines professionalism with such warmth and empathy. I’m very grateful to be under his care and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a kind and dedicated haematologist.

Impressed is my only word!!!! From the minute Dr. Alwan shook my hand he completely put me at ease. Friendly, interesting and chatty. Completely understood my problems and obviously very talented in his field. Within 30 minutes he had analysed every piece of information and made his professional recommendations. I would not hesitate in recommending Dr. Alwan and using his professional service again.

I wanted to thank Dr Alwan for such a comprehensive and well-rounded consultation. I particularly appreciated the clear haemostasis risk assessment, his clear whilst balanced explanation of current versus future risks, and how he contextualised family history alongside my own clinical background. The clarity around current management as well as forward planning (including pregnancy considerations) was extremely helpful and reassuring. Thanks again for his time and thoughtful approach. Kind regards, Sylvia
