DR RASHI MALESU REVIEWS

HCDL is hands down a fabulous practice. The care and attention to detail I have received from Dr Malesu has been second to none. She is on time, pleasant, knowledgeable, approachable and medically superb. Her practice has a spacious waiting room with an amazing view and her reception staff are friendly and efficient. Other staff are extremely competent, pleasant and aftercare is great. You could not ask for a better service and Dr Malesu is absolutely amazing. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Loved my experience with the team at HCDL, from the very start I was informed and educated about the journey and always felt comfortable in the space. My treatments were worthwhile with great results and I couldn’t recommend Dr Malesu and the team enough.

Had a great experience. All the staff were lovely and really informative with all aspects of my laser treatment, highly recommend HCDL.

DR ALICIA THORNTON REVIEWS

My experience at Frontier Dermatology has been first class and highly professional. From the booking process, appointment reminders and the the attention to detail during the appointment has been second to none. The consultation rooms are also of a high quality. Dr Alicia has that fine blend of being personable and highly competent so I am grateful to be a patient of the practice.

Dr Thornton really cares about her patients. She is kind, knowledgeable and goes the extra mile in order to treat and work out what is going on. She explains clearly and thoroughly and I love that she writes the info down so my brain doesn’t have to retain it all. Plus the new rooms are fresh and parking at the door.

Lovely staff who genuinely care about you. Easily the best dermatologist I’ve ever been to. Their entire team are all friendly, patient and knowledgeable. Thanks for looking after me guys.

DR JESSICA BALE REVIEWS

Highly recommend Dr Jessica Bale for your skin concerns, immaculate clinic & friendly staff.
