Absolutely faultless from first appointment to after tonsillectomy review. Would recommend DR Shakeel 100%

Mr Mohammed Shakeel is a good listener. He has excellent observation. He diagnosed the problem and provided the treatment options (both short term and long term). I’ll recommend him.

Dr Shakeel was friendly and welcoming from the first phone call we had together. Pre surgery he used humour which I appreciated as it helped put me at ease. He was always happy to answer any questions and made sure I understood was he was telling me. Appreciate the fact he took the time to phone me post op to save me having to wait for an in person appointment.

Great communicator and puts you at ease

De Shakeel gave me a thorough explanation of what we found, what the process would be and what the options were once we had the result of the biopsy. He made sure I understood what was discussed and what the plan was. Subsequently on the day of surgery he put my welfare above all else and helped me with a seperate issue that he found. After the surgery he was most helpful in getting me back to work (at my request) and has been friendly and comforting throughout the whole experience. I appreciate this review sounds too positive perhaps, to the point where it can almost not be true. But it has genuinely been a fantastic experience throughout. I cannot recommend him enough.

I can’t rate Dr Shakeel highly enough. He was excellent. Very very knowledgable with a perfect professional and friendly manner which made both my husband and I feel very relaxed and confident about my upcoming treatment. He answered all our questions and queries and we left feeling much less worried and more confident about my operation. I honestly can't recommend Dr Shakeel enough.

Dr Shakeel is an incredibly kind and patient doctor who has a fantastic manner. I felt listened to and comforted by his vast knowledge.
