Rhinoplasty UK

I had breast surgery. This no-frills private hospital was not luxurious in decor in the private rooms, the blinds looked shabby and the walls were painted a nondescript cream. It was very hot as the room faced west and it was a hot summers day of 30c. Air conditioning in reception and theatre but not on the ward. The only food I was offered post op for an overnight stay was toast, I was not given a menu to make a choice, I asked if I could have ice cream told they do not stock it but was offered a yoghurt instead. Breakfast was again toast or cereal. The procedure went well and I cannot fault the medical or nursing team. I was checked on frequently and the care I received was first class. I do feel though that some attention should be paid to the decor on the wards, air conditioning for the wards, and improve the food on offer, as I felt the catering was worse than NHS provision. After all, it is a private hospital and I expected a little bit of luxury to be standard for the price I was paying for the procedure. The staff were polite yet friendly and professional. I was checked on regularly post op and when I rang for assistance help was quick in coming. However, I later found out there were only two overnight patients. The care I received was excellent, with staff washing hands before approaching and on leaving.

After being insecure about my nose for most of my life I booked a consultation with Mr Khalid Ali and it was the best decision I have made. I was insecure about the bump on my nose and it was wide from the front profile too. I also had breathing problems with a deviated septum. I did extensive research and he stood out massively among the rest for his experience, qualifications and of course his amazing reviews! From the moment I stepped in his office for my consultation I felt completely comfortable and knew I was in capable hands. My consultation made me feel excited and confident that he was the surgeon who would fix my life-long issues. His ability to look at me and immediately tell me what he could do to fix my nose filled me with hope. I was so confident in him that I booked my surgery just a couple days later. I was willing to travel the 11 hour round trip. My surgery was at First Trust in Preston and the staff were all so lovely and made me feel comfortable. Mr Ali came to see me just before surgery to go over what I was getting done. He also came to see me after surgery and assured me the surgery went very well. When I left hospital I could already see the difference in my side profile even with a cast on which I was so excited about. I felt no pain during recovery just a little uncomfortable which is expected. The swelling and bruising on my face and around my eyes reduced a lot after just 4-5 days and surprisingly wasn’t sore. When I returned to see Mr Ali for my cast removal 8 days later I was totally overwhelmed with my result and I cried (haha). The results were amazing and better than I could’ve expected at this stage. Mr Ali was very pleased with the result too. I’m now almost 4 weeks post surgery and have never felt so confident, and this is even with my nose still having slight swelling. Mr Khalid Ali has changed my life and this is the best decision I’ve ever made.

Very helpful. No pressure. Just an overview of various possible treatments.

My surgeon Mr Whitelaw was excellent in all aspects. The staff at Cobham Clinic were all very good. I have no complaints at all.

My first experience of the treatment I received. Wood MediSpa, South Tawton, Devon is set in beautiful grounds and a magnificent building. From the minute you arrive you are made to feel at ease. Reception staff and the nurse involved were both very friendly and welcoming. Dr Toby Nelson carried out cryotherapy. He explained in detail what would happen and checked that I understood and was happy for him to proceed. I was treated with respect and kindness throughout my visit and certainly felt it was good value. I would recommend Wood MediSpa and Dr Nelson to people.
