I had an urgent appointment with Dr Elangasinghe and then a week later he surgically removed a nasty lesion on my hand. Ultimately, it turned out not to be anything sinister, but I am so grateful for his most thorough approach, care, expertise and professionalism. He is an outstanding dermatologist! I also have to give mention to Dr Elangasinghe’s administrator, Yasas who steered me through the process with great respect, care and such efficiency. Truly exceptional! I would most certainly return if needed in the future and would highly recommend him without hesitation to those seeking dermatology consultation. Thank you for such great care. Patricia

I have recently undergone a procedure for the removal of a skin lesion which was done under local anaesthetic. This procedure was done in a very professional manner by Dr Elangasinghe and his team, who put me at my ease, being done in a very efficient way. I was well looked after at all times from my first appointment to my final and subsequent discharge. Once again thank you to all concerned.

I returned from holiday in April this year and soon after spotted a bite like mark on my right lower calf, this leg and ankle and was also red and swollen and painful. After several visits to my GP surgery and various opinions (even a BCC). I was lucky enough to obtain a referral in early September to the Thornbury Hospital using my membership of Benenden Health. I chose to see Dr Vinod Elangasinghe and cannot praise him enough for his complete understanding of the problem and his sheer professionalism in coming to the diagnosis of Lipodermatosclerosis together with the treatment required. I had a follow up consultation this week and he was very pleased with the progress to date and providing things carry on as now I do not require further appointments. He is such a friendly, mild mannered and reassuring person and I would certainly seek his advice again if needed in the future.

I consulted Dr Elangasinghe in November 2022, for follow up of a mole, and to seek advice on Oral Lichen Planus (OLP) which I had developed since my previous consultation, and which made eating very painful. The advice from the NHS maxillo-facial clinic and my GP about OLP was quite limited, and there were many questions in my mind. During examination, using the Dermascope, he detected that a small area of skin discolouration was due to lichen planus. He explained his findings clearly and gave me practical advice I could use. He prescribed an ointment for the skin, a mouthwash for my oral Lichen planus, and a gel for pain relief before eating. By comparing a Dermascopic photograph of the mole with one he took six months ago, he was able to reassure me that the mole remained unchanged and needed only yearly follow up. I found Dr Vinod to be extremely knowledgeable. What impressed me most was that he gave me the time, listened patiently and addressed all my various concerns. At no point did I feel rushed. I found his explanations and advice comprehensive and easy to follow. He is very competent, caring, easy to relate to and an excellent communicator. I will continue to see him for follow up.

My daughter has had psoriasis since a young age, however as she has got older it has become more severe. At our first appointment with Dr Elangasinghe he asked her what she wanted to achieve and then clearly set out a plan to meet her requirements. At each stage he has carefully listened, clearly advised and taken care of my daughter’s wellbeing. We have also been extremely impressed with his secretary and coordinator who have gone above and beyond to help when needed. I cannot recommend Dr Elangasinghe highly enough for his professionalism, knowledge and care and we will continue to seek his advice in the future.
