Had a telephone appointment with Dr Sharif his communication, care and expertise is just impeccable. He goes above and beyond to make you understand medical stuff in layman terms.. He is one of the best consultants NHS can have..
Absolutely brilliant consultant. As well as being incredibly personable (which is v important to me), Dr. Sharif was excellent in diagnosing and suggesting a plan to treat my back and hip pain. I’d seen a number of other specialists over the last 8 months who had tried / suggested various interventions but nothing had alleviated the pain. I felt totally reassured and confident from the first appointment with Dr. Sharif 1) cared and 2) - I now finally feel that I’m on the right track
Dr Sharif is a very caring and compassionate consultant, who takes the time to explain why you are experiencing problems with your arthritis. He is thorough in his examination of all joints and gives sound advice and effective medication. Cannot thank him enough for his care, understanding and empathetic approach. So reassuring in every respect

From the moment I met Dr. Sharif, I felt completely at ease. Walking into any medical appointment can feel daunting, but his calm, kind, and compassionate manner immediately gave me confidence that I was in the right hands. Dr. Sharif has a wonderful way of making you feel heard and valued. He takes the time to listen, explains everything clearly, and never makes you feel rushed. His knowledge and professionalism are exceptional, but it’s his genuine care and encouragement that really set him apart. I have felt supported, reassured, and treated with the utmost respect. It’s rare to meet a doctor who combines such outstanding expertise with such a warm and caring approach. I feel incredibly fortunate to be under Dr. Sharif’s care and cannot thank him enough.
