"Mr Elhassan is an excellent ENT surgeon with a great bedside manner. He is great at explaining things in straight forward terms that patients can understand. He puts patients at ease with his reassuring manner that comes from years of experience as one of London’s leading nose and sinus specialist. Mr Elhassan is one of London’s most advanced endoscopic sinus surgeons, performing this surgery on a weekly basis, often on patients who need revision procedures. He treats sinusitis, deviated septum and patients who have struggled with their breathing for a long time. Mr Elhassan is a trusted colleague whose kind considerate bedside manner are matched by his fantastic nasal surgery and endoscopic skills. I do recommend him to friends and family."
