Reviews
Mr McAlister was very informative and professional, I left the appointment feeling like I am in good hands
Mr McAlister was very professional in explaining the procedure and has a very good bed side manner.
The specialist was clear and concise with his explanation Throughout
My initial consultation regarding a neck lift was excellent. Mr McAlister(Ken) gave clear expectations and all procedures available were discussed in a relaxed, friendly manner, with no pressure. My operation at Beardwood Hospital went well. All staff during my stay were excellent. My recovery at five weeks is well underway with great results visible. My facial scaring is nearly invisible due to Kens amazing attention to detail whilst stitching the area in front of my ears. Follow up appointments have been very reassuring with excellent advice given to further aid recovery. I am so happy that I chose Ken as my surgeon and I cannot recommend him highly enough!
Absolutely the quickest and bestest appointment I have ever had - I was listened to at my side forehead examined. Very happy and impressed with the kindness and efficiency of this appt and I was given “patient initiated follow up” leaflet. Superb and I feel reassured and happy and the doctor and nurse were so helpful . Thank you so much. Regards Jennifer B.
I couldn't have had any better care, from consultation, operation, and follow-up visit. Mr McAlister is a excellent surgeon as well as being a lovely gentleman. I would certainly recommend him to other people.
Very quick diagnosis and a no nonsense approach made this as painless a procedure as it could be.
I had a procedure with Mr McAllister it was great, he explained everything clearly and made sure I understand the procedure and any complications that could arrise. He saw me before and after the procedure to reassess my needs and go over the procedure again
The whole time experience had been good, I felt informed and reassured at all times.
