Recent comment from one of our patients:
"Hi, I would like to leave a message about my recent experience about several appointments with a doctor at Alexander House Dr ASHRAF. I found this doctor to be one of the best most professional and diligent caring doctors I have seen in a very long time. He listened and really was most professional in finding the best and effective solution to my ongoing problem with very high reading of BP which to be honest was at a dangerous levels. I was advised and given the best possible care to remedy the ongoing problems. And I can only thank Partners Dr Ahmed and Co for employing such a valuable asset to the practice as Dr Ashraf. Many thanks"
