Highly professional Doctor. Very welcoming and available to take time, explain the processes as well as answer all the questions.
One of the best doctors I’ve seen. Super easy to talk to, explained everything clearly and took me and my symptoms seriously from the start - thank you!
I was referred to see Dr Alwan due to a sudden drop of platelets before an operation. Dr Alwan decisively recommends the first line of treatment of ITP for 4 days, and my platelet count has improved significantly as a result. I must thank Dr Alwan for his prompt action and treatment.
I had a great experience with Dr. Ferras. He is extremely professional and takes the time to understand your medical history and get to the root of what may be causing the reason for your appointment. He was very diligent and thorough, arranging all the necessary tests to carefully rule out any possible causes. Throughout the process, I always felt that I was in very good hands and that my concerns were being taken seriously
Dr Alwan was excellent - incredibly knowledgeable, professional and, most importantly, very understanding and reassuring. He took the time to listen to my concerns, explain everything clearly and make sure I felt fully informed.

Excellent experience. Dr. Ferras was very porfessional, took time to listen to me and explain everything clearly, and made me feel reassured and at ease throughout the appointment. I would highly recommend him.
