Dr Dev Shah understood the effects of my problem on my mental state and was extremely kind & compassionate and could not have made me feel more validated and safe. He diagnosed me straight away and provided treatment which has allowed me to feel so much more better with my skin and in myself. I could not recommend him more.

I am just so grateful for Dr Shah for going the extra mile to ensure I got the best result possible following skin cancer treatment. I had a very large BCC removed from my forehead. He found a way to remove it to minimise scarring, and a year later the very large scar is hardly visible. He did a fantastic job. He is also a really lovely man, very kind and caring who listened to and addressed all my concerns. I would highly recommend him.

Dr Shah removed a Basal Cell Carcinoma from my left cheek. This involved the complete removal of the Basal Cell Carcinoma and 12 sutures. Within one month of removal the sutures there was little sign of the procedure and after 3 months with regular application of Vitamin E cream virtually invisible. Absolutely incredible. Thank you Dr Shah

Dr Shah, is a highly intelligent and knowledgeable dermatologist, whom it was a pleasure to see. He is kind, caring and easy to talk to, but has a very keen eye for what may be wrong. He is thorough, and does not suggest further investigation unless it is strictly necessary. The only way he could improve , would be to keep to time, ( but that is because he spends longer chatting to make people relax than many doctors!) I recommend him highly, and have chosen him to look at my skin, that of my husband, and my son. His diagnosis has been accurate and his treatment effective. I wish there were more consultants like him! Dr Elaine V. Laycock MBE .MB, BS, DCh
