Notable

One of the strongest credential stacks in UK hair restoration: ISHRS Fellow, ABHRS Diplomate, and holder of an ABHRS office — he sits on the body that examines other hair transplant surgeons — plus a long-standing seat on the BAHRS executive. Single-surgeon practice, exclusively hair restoration since 2014, CQC-rated Good.

Sources & verification

Compiled into the 2026-08-14 dataset build. No separate re-verification date is recorded for this clinic. Placed by verification, never by payment.

Editorial note: CORRECTED THREE THINGS. (1) The candidate said 'ABHRS Treasurer' — the sourced role is ABHRS SECRETARY and Chair of the Oral Examination Committee; 'Treasurer' has been removed. (2) The candidate said 'BAHRS President since 2021'. This is genuinely contested in the record: BAHRS's own Global Council page names Dr Greg Williams as President and Dr Chris D'Souza as VICE-President, and the ISHRS member profile bio also says Vice President, while his 2023 BAHRS conference speaker bio says he was voted President in 2021. The claim has therefore been downgraded to the one thing every source agrees on — executive committee member since 2017 — and the presidency claim is NOT asserted. (3) The Trustpilot row has been REMOVED: the serper pull returned 4.9 from 68 reviews, an exact duplicate of the Google rating AND count, which is a classic mis-scrape, and a direct Trustpilot fetch returned 403. Rather than publish a probably-copied figure, only the Google rating stands. ADDED: the ISHRS directory profile (51695) and the CQC inspection record, both first-party regulator/authority sources, which strengthen the Tier 1 basis considerably beyond the original submission. No published price of any kind — priceOrRange left null rather than estimated. Review base is small in absolute terms (68), consistent with a genuine one-surgeon practice rather than a volume clinic, but the rating rests on a thin sample.
