The best Dr/Surgeon I have came across, right from the first consultation he listens and understands everything right the way through to surgery and after care he genuinely does care about his patients and comes to check up on you even after working very hard all day. I had a hernia repair in February and that has healed and scar looks perfect and I came back for a total thyroid removal and Mr Elsaify has been brilliant on both occasions, Thank You.

Mr Elsaify took great care of me for my surgery and ensured I knew what what was going to happen answering any questions I had. He is a friendly and caring Doctor with a great sense of humour which helps put you at ease, but also very knowledgeable in his work. Thanks for everything

My treatment with Dr Elsaify started at James cook, after a serious of ultrasounds and biopsies I met with Dr Elsaify to discuss treatment plan which ended up being surgery to remove a lump and half of thyroid
From the minute I met him he put me at ease, he was fantastic, explained everything thoroughly and added an element of humour to make me feel more relaxed, there was a small risk of cancer so I did get teary but Dr Elsaify was brilliant - everything he explained to me, including timescales went exactly as discussed
On the day of surgery his treatment was no different, he saw me pre surgery, post surgery and the following day before being discharged and I felt totally at ease in his capable hands
I did notice how highly the other staff also spoke of him during all of my appointments! He works such long shifts and is always happy to help
