After being diagnosed with a Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) in and above my right eyebrow, I was referred to Dr Hussain. I was naturally concerned regarding the diagnosis and the actual location of the BCC on my face. However, from the very first moment of speaking with Dr Hussain, he reassured me and provided me with an extremely clear outline of the options and procedures available to me. As a result, I had absolutely no hesitation whatsoever of seeing Dr Hussain and undergoing MOHS surgery at the Dermatology Surgical Unit (C4) Nuffield Health, Chapel Allerton Hospital, Leeds, West Yorkshire. During the procedure, which was carried out under local anesthetic, and in the subsequent follow up appointments, it was very apparent to me how extremely professional and incredibly skilled Dr Hussain and his team of Sister Lisa Martin, and Nurses Rose and Gina all are. They were absolutely amazing and the patient care that was demonstrated to me throughout was second to none. The MOHS procedure that I experienced and that was carried out by Dr Hussain although quite extensive, was surprisingly quite painless. During the procedure, Dr Hussain provided continuous reassurance to me and after the procedure was completed and after having the dressings subsequently removed a few days later, I was absolutely delighted with the result. The marks where the surgery took place are nowhere near what I expected them to be and they are fading very rapidly. This, in my personal opinion, is directly due to the outstanding skill, knowledge and experience of Dr Hussain. I cannot thank Dr Hussain and his team of Sister Lisa Martin, Nurses Rose and Gina highly enough. They are incredible people and amazing professionals. Thank you to you all!

I went to see Dr Hussain after having a diagnosis of Basal Cell Carcinoma on my scalp and was advised by the NHS that I would need a skin graft putting on my head and I would be left with a bald patch, I was very upset by this and went to see Dr Hussain who straight away put my mind at rest and offered me MOHS surgery without the need for a biopsy as he said it was not necessary, from start to finish Dr Hussain was amazing so was the rest of his team that looked after me especially Sister Lisa Martin who is so lovely and has a natural caring attitude who looked after me. The procedure was painless and he assured me that the end result would be good. I had the MOHS surgery and the site was dressed, after a few days the dressing was removed and the result was beyond anything I could have hoped for it has now totally healed and no cancer remaining and you can not even see where I have had the surgery I am over the moon and so happy I found Dr Hussain he is an angel. Thank you and all the team.

I was treated by Dr Hussain for BCC on my forehead all I can say is Dr Hussain is an amazing Dr that really understands his patients needs and is very personable. He made me feel at ease from the first consultation, very supportive throughout my procedure and made sure I was ok and comfortable, the aftercare was outstanding and everytime I saw Dr Hussain, I had the cancer removed and skin graft and his work was amazing, I was very scared of how I would look after with this being on my face, but wow is all I can say, he had done a very near job and clearly is the best at what he does. I hope I do not need to return to the hospital however if I was to ever need anything again, I would only like to be under the care of Dr Hissain.

I would like to thank Dr Hussain, Sister Martin and the C4 team for yet another successful procedure carried out with skill, professionalism and a good sense of humour. After having had two quite lengthy procedures on my nose over the last year, I was expecting to have at the very least some scaring but I am pleased to say that even on close inspection nobody would ever know. Thanks again to all
