This private aesthetic medical clinic…
This private aesthetic medical clinic is to be commended. If you're considering surgery you will be in the hands of one of the Uk's top surgeons. I'm a doctor having sent many clients for face
lifts and have always been impressed by the effective yet natural results . The Waterfront hospital itself is both professional as one would expect for this type of surgery and "state of the art " aesthetically. I would highly recommend anyone considering facial surgery to make the trip to Edinburgh

Thank you, Helen. A recommendation from a doctor who has referred patients over a number of years carries real weight, and we're glad the facelift results have held up to your assessment. The hospital environment matters to us as much as the surgery, so it's useful to hear that registered with you too. We appreciate you sending patients our way to Edinburgh, and they're always welcome.

Hi William,
Thanks for this. We try to be upfront about costs at the consultation and to get treatment done on the same visit where that is sensible, so it is good to hear that worked well for you at our Edinburgh hospital.

All the staff were helpful and friendly
All the staff were helpful and friendly. Mr Nazeem made sure that I understood my options, including risks. He made it very clear that the 'do nothing ' option was still valid. I decided to gobahead with the surgery option which he completed then and there. Very efficient, no pain. Kept me at my ease. I would recommend him to friends.

Hi Heather,
Thanks for this. Being clear about the options, including not having anything done, is how we want every consultation to go, so it is good to hear Mr Nassar took that approach and that the procedure itself was straightforward for you.

From start to finish I have had an amazing experience with this clinic. I cannot speak highly enough of my surgeon Dr. Ewa Madjak-Paredes. My initial consultation filled me with confidence to move forward with the surgery and now 8 weeks post op I have now had my final checkup and I am so happy with my results. I cannot recommend The Waterfront Clinic enough for their professionalism and would not hesitate to visit in the future.

Hi Lisa,
Thank you for this. Building confidence at that first appointment matters a great deal when someone is deciding whether to go ahead, and it is good to know Dr Madjak-Paredes gave you that, and that you are pleased eight weeks on.

It's also good to hear the consultation gave you a clear picture of the procedure and that you felt comfortable throughout.

Dr Katy Nassar is amazing
The Waterfront Hospital is a beautiful, clean, bright and spacious place.
Dr Katy Nassar is extremely professional and skilful at assessing and administering Botox for wrinkles. I would highly recommend. I will definitely go back.

Very impressed by the holistic approach. I booked for a check up on one mole and was very reassured to get an all over mole body check. An annual check up is an excellent plan.

Thank you, Christine. Glad the full body check gave you extra reassurance beyond the single mole you came in for. An annual check-up is a good habit to keep up.

Positive experience
I had a really positive experience at my private consultation. From start to finish, I felt completely at ease and was given plenty of time to discuss everything properly without ever feeling rushed. Everything was explained clearly and thoroughly, and all of my questions were answered honestly and professionally.

My experience with Waterfront Private Hospital has been excellent.
When I attended my consultation with Mr Awf Quaba everything was explained to me very thoroughly, and what I should expect.
I had my surgery in the Spire Hospital as I needed to stay over night. The care was exceptional, they can't do enough to help.
I had follow up appointments which all went well. If I had any concerns regarding my recovery, they were answered straight away. Overall I am very happy with the results and with the care I have received.

Thank you, Jade. It's good to know that your consultation with Mr Awf Quaba set clear expectations, and that the same standard of care was carried through your surgery, follow-ups, and recovery. We are glad that any concerns were addressed quickly along the way.
Waterfront Private Hospital, Edinburgh
5 star - from start to finish. Excellent.
First point of contact- the receptionists were warm, friendly and smiling, which was welcoming.
I asked if Mr Quaba was free to say ‘hello’. Understandably- Mr Quaba was busy with consultations. I had only ever had Mr Quaba in the past, last visit being 2022- for Botox etc to make my face look less tired for attending my daughter wedding.
With my son now getting married the first thing for me to do was repeat the process.
I consulted with Dr Katy Nassar, what a delightful Doctor- lovely. Caring, gentle and kind.
I give my visit to the team 5 stars.
Thank you kindly.
