Mr Ali Esmaeili 2021-08-01 Person 5 5 0

Dr. Esmaeili was doing my operation for melanoma treatment - local excision and sentinel lymph node biopsy. I was diagnosed only 3 months after my best friend passed away from cancer and with my operation being postponed due to hospital's Covid19 backlog, it was a very stressful time for me and for my family abroad. In the morning, during our pre-operation meeting, Dr. Esmaeili patiently explained to me the whole procedure, all pros and cons, possible outcome and aftercare. I mainly appreciated his honesty and that he listened and took into consideration all my concerns. He answered all my questions and I felt very much at ease, for the first time since I’ve been diagnosed actually. The wound healed quickly and the outcome of the operation is beyond my expectations. The treatment required to take quite a big piece of my skin from upper abdomen but except the scar (that is also very neat) there is no sign that something is missing. I highly recommend Dr. Esmaeili, especially if your treatment or operation scares you or worries you in any way. He is not only an outstanding plastic surgeon but he really has therapeutic effect on the patient. And I’m counsellor myself.
