I had a breast augmentation two months ago. Unfortunately, I had a complication with an infection in one of my breasts. My surgeon who did the operation did not deal with the problem. Dr Esmaeili looked after me from day one, admitting me to the hospital and looking after me for three days. He was available and caring during my time in the hospital and after helping me with my stress and anxiety. He warned me from day one that the implant may need to come out, but they will try to remove the fluid around it. If that works, it may prevent me from having the implant removed. However, if it doesn’t, the implant has a high chance of coming out. He showed a high level of empathy all the time during my treatment. He’s kind, caring, competent and very knowledgeable, and I highly recommend him.

I attended day surgery at the Royal Free on 27 July 2022 for reduction of a spiral fracture of the ring finger of my left hand. I had attended plastics the previous week, where the decision was taken that surgical reduction was needed without any attempt at a closed reduction under local anaesthetic in clinic. Needless to say, I was very apprehensive of the potential for needing general anaesthetic given previous problems with g.a. That and concern that it was by this point 10 days since the injury, so concerned re what could be done and frustrated that clinic insisted it needed to go straight to surgery, based on the X ray alone and without any attempt to reduce in clinic. Straight away on meeting Mr Esmaeili at the start of the day, he demonstrated great empathy and respect for how I was feeling, taking the time to get to really understand me, my concerns and the history of the injury. When I told him that no attempt to reduce the fracture in clinic and my frustration around that, he immediately was willing to attempt a closed reduction under local anaesthetic whilst of course being absolutely transparent and addressing empathetically that this was not a guarantee. After his first procedure, he returned to the ward and successfully reduced the fracture under local anaesthetic, avoiding the need for me to have to go to theatre for more invasive intervention. My finger is healing well now and continues to do so. I highly recommend Mr Esmaeli and remain extremely grateful of the time he gave me and his wonderful expertise.

Ali’s care was exemplary : he displayed the highest professional standards in his care and patient contact. He treated me as I was his only patient, despite the fact that my procedure was a minor one. He went out of his way to help me and his surgical result was perfect. Highly recommend!

I had a bump at the top of my head, Dr Ali kindly talked through the process and made me feel comfortable and at ease before the surgery. Post surgery my head healed very quickly and I am extremely happy with my results. Honestly a great doctor and I will always recommend him to others!
