There are no words that can express my gratitude to professor Khalaf for giving me my family. He is truly a unique human being who has dedicated his life and his time to his patients. He and his team show incredible dedication, support and professionalism but moreover humility and humble understanding on this often lonely isolating journey of infertility.
When we went through the difficult diagnosis years ago determining we will never be able to conceive naturally, professor Khalaf had taken the time to walk with us through this journey and support us over the years whenever we needed and were ready. He has always advocated for the least invasive procedures suitable to our specific circumstances, with incredible flexibility going out of his way to meet our busy schedules. He has personally taken my bloods on Sunday morning if it was required, offered to talk to our doctors abroad when coordinating cross border procedures, provided countless encouragement whenever I was in doubt and always found the time in his busy schedule to ask about how my family was doing.
Thanks to professor Khalaf and the team he manages with extraordinary leadership, I am able to experience motherhood and live life worth living. I will forever be grateful. Thank you for everything you have done for us and for the countless parents over the years.
We are so grateful and happy we were given the opportunity to have Prof Khalaf as our consultant gyaenocologist, when going through with IVF, via the personalised plan option. He put us in the right frame of mind, put us at ease whenever we had any questions and worries. He was available to contact when we needed him and this kept us feeling positive and reassured which was a big help.
From our experience I would recommend Prof Khalaf to anyone, and would not hesitate to go back to him again.
Best doctor who listened and put me at ease. Speaking to Prof Khalaf made me feel assured. I felt that he was and remains very knowledgeable.
Approachable. Understanding. Knowledgeable. Informative. Professional. Relatable. Kind. Caring. Thoughtful. Immaculate. The best!!
Some of the words I would use to discribe Professor Khalaf and his assistant Tina, I cannot speak highly enough of them.
Upon my first meeting with Professor Khalaf he filled me with absolute confidence, I had an abdominal myoectomy (removal of 5 fibroids, the largest being 10cm which was giving me all the symptoms) due to his wealth of knowledge and experience that he portrayed with his caring manner I knew I was in the best hands possible & I stand by that now after my procedure. My scar is unbelievably neat & immaculate, I love it.
Both Tina & Professor Khalaf made this very daunting procedure so easy, they were so supportive throughout and I would recommend them to anyone, I feel very very grateful I found this team.
Mr Khalaf is the best! After a failed IVF with PGS testing in Prague we went to see him as my friend had had success with him and immediately knew we were in safe hands. His charm and humour put us instantly at ease. We did an IVF cycle in March which has been successful, everything went so smoothly and Mr Khalaf was always available for any questions we had along the way so you always felt supported and cared for. Even if we hadn't had success I wouldn't look anywhere else for treatment.
