Dr Bashir is amazing, super friendly and thorough I am so happy with my experience, I would 100% recommend anyone struggling with their skin to visit here
Very pleased . I was seen within 3 days and had biopsy on the same day . Very professional and good team . Thankyou dr Bashir .
London Skin55 Clinic delivered a standout experience for my laser acne scar treatment. Dr. Bashir combined technical skill with thoughtful care – he not only improved my scarring but expertly identified and removed an unexpected cheek cyst during the procedure. His calm demeanor and clear explanations (without any hard-selling) made me feel informed rather than rushed. The clinic itself strikes a perfect balance: pristine clinical standards meet a welcoming atmosphere with natural light and modern decor. What truly stood out was how the team coordinated seamlessly – from the receptionist’s warm greeting to the nurse’s careful aftercare instructions. A rare find in cosmetic dermatology.
I was given a thorough briefing about the procedure which answered my questions
The best person for skin cancer. I finally felt taken seriously. So safe.
Dr Bashir is an excellent colleage, he is a very experienced Dermatology surgeon who cares deeply about his patients and loves his job.

DermatologistI can whole-heartedly recommend Dr Bashir. He has the much-prized combinations of ability, empathy and efficiency. He is highly skilled in his work and I have both referred patients to him and been a highly-satisfied patient of his.
