From the first appointment Dr Ghura put me at total ease. His caring and compassionate manner shines through and nothing is too much trouble. Dr Ghura takes as much time as needed to thoroughly explain everything. Dr Ghura’s exceptional knowledge is clearly evident but he has the ability to explain things so simply to ensure I understood everything. It was no problem at all to take my daughter with me so that my forgettory did not forget to mention anything or forget to remember anything. Dr Ghura is just such a lovely, lovely person and will be my first port of call in future if I need him.

It was obviously a very worrying and scary time when I was diagnosed with a BCC right in the centre of my face, just above my lip. From the outset Dr Ghura displayed a quiet confidence, reassuring me and keeping me fully informed throughout.He is such a skilful surgeon that it is impossible to see where the cancer was. I am extremely grateful to him and would not hesitate in the least to recommend him to family and friends.

i have just had mohs surgery, and would assure anyone about to undergo that the experience was completed to my utmost satisfaction. Dr Gurha removed the growth and repaired the wound and after two weeks the scar healed and was nearly undiscernable.

A friend highly recommended Dr Ghura as she had some problems with skin issues. I had to see Dr Ghura for diagnosis on some blisters that appeared on my nose and an area that I assumed was a skin tag. Dr Ghura was pleasant and knowledgeable and explained that all 3 areas were solar keratosis and benign... all from sun damage. I had spent 24 years working outside - not abroad - but in the UK, I didn't wear a hat and only occasionally wore sun cream on my face. Treatment was with a chemotherapy cream over a month. The blisters responded to this treatment ..the other area did not. Subsequently I had to have a small operation to remove this Solar keratosis. This procedure was performed under local anaesthetic at The Alexander Hospital, by Dr Ghura. I was nervous because the remaining solar keratosis was at the side of the bridge of my nose and near my eye. Dr Ghura removed the solar keratosis so quickly..from start to finish the procedure took only 9 mins! I didn't feel any pain, the nursing staff present were wonderful and so kind, and Dr Ghura closed the area with stitches. I had worried unnecessarily. Dr Ghura explained what I needed to do following the surgery, what the likely after effects could be..black eyes, soreness etc, I did have a slight black eye, but no soreness. I religiously followed his after-op instructions and a week later the stitches were removed. After another two weeks the wound had totally healed and now you cannot see where the incision was made. Amazing! I would have no hesitation in recommending Dr Ghura. And yes, I now apply Factor 50 especially on my face, and always in sunshine, rainy or cloudy weather. Plus a hat and sunglasses when necessary. I've learnt my lesson. So please, do not be worried re an op like this, you are under the care of a great man.

After being diagnosed with a form of skin cancer (basal cell carcinoma) Dr Vindy Ghura was recommended to me from my GP as one of the leading consultants in treating this condition in the North West. Although it's one of the least dangerous skin cancers, it was still quite a daunting experience being diagnosed. From the first consultation, Dr Ghura was reassuring in his explanation of what the options were and how the process would unfold. The procedure itself went smoothly and the scar has healed incredibly well. The whole process went far, far smoother than I ever imagined and I would not hesitate in recommending Dr Ghura to anyone who is diagnosed with the same condition.
