Dr Vindy Ghura

I was recently diagnosed with a basal cell carcinoma on the side of my nose very close to my right eye. Dr Ghura carried out MOHs surgery to remove it. Although l was very nervous and l hate needles, Dr Ghura and his team helped to put me at ease. I was kept informed throughout the entire procedure but wasn’t overloaded with information. I was given very clear aftercare advice too. I wasn’t in any ‘pain’ after the surgery but l did feel a bit sore, tired and l had a slight headache. I took a couple of paracetamol and went to bed for an hour and woke up feeling ok. I had a restful two days. When l took the dressing off after 48 hours l was a bit alarmed at how gruesome my wound looked. There was a line of blue stitches, some swelling and yellowy green bruising. Over the course of the first week the swelling reduced and the bruising faded. I had the stitches removed after a week. This wasn’t painful at all. I am now 2 weeks post surgery and having followed the aftercare advice to the letter and trusting the process, l am absolutely delighted with the appearance of my scar already. It is still slightly red and a little bit bumpy but it is actually barely noticeable and a thin layer of my usual concealer covers it completely. I know that over time it will have practically disappeared. Dr Ghura is an exceptionally skilled surgeon and uses his experience to ensure any scarring is minimal. His calm professionalism helps to reduce the stress and worry about being diagnosed with skin cancer and having facial surgery. l wouldn’t hesitate in recommending him.

The care that Dr Ghura gave me from the first time I met him was outstanding. I needed 3 separate MOHs operations on my face and Dr Ghura put me at ease and respected my anxieties and concerns regarding the surgery and after care.I would not hesitate in recommending him to anyone who needs this surgery.

I was referred by my GP to an NHS consultant who recommended MOHS Surgery. He referred us to Dr Ghura. Dr Ghura explained, in an easily understood way, what would need to be done and how he would do it. His manner of explaining and listening to my questions removed all my worries and made me feel at ease. He ensured that I was happy to the surgery and the treatment went ahead. The result is better than I thought possible and so I would recommend this doctor to anyone.

I was originally referred to an NHS dermatologist by my health centre GP as I had a small long term growth on the side of my face that was showing signs of change. Unfortunately the NHS waiting time became intolerable (12-24 months) and the growth started to interfere with my saving routine. I, therefore, chose to enter the private sector and having used the Alex at Cheadle before I asked to see one of their dermatologists specialising in facial work. Hence I met Dr Vinci Ghura. A real nice guy. He listen to my concerns. Gave me a thorough examination and explained why my long term growth had changed and also that I had some other smaller growths that could be treated with cream. He suggested that the large one be removed by a small operation. Again he explained everything throughly including both the risks and costs. I decided to go ahead. Dr Ghura and his team were great. I felt in good hands and totally happy with the procedure. The team explained how to proceed with post op care and a final examination showed that Dr Ghura had done an excellent job. I would fully recommend him and his team to anyone who needs specialist facial work.

I have had a number of MOHS treatments with Dr. Ghura. The latest involved removing quite a large BCC from near my eye and this involved many stitches. Two weeks later, you would have to have looked very carefully to realise I had had surgery such is his skill. Strongly recommended.
