Dr Nerina Wilkinson's

Philosophy of Patient Care

"My philosophy places the patient at the centre of all decisions. I believe in active listening to understand their goals, concerns, and expectations fully. Informed consent is also a fundamental principle. I provide detailed information about the risks, benefits, and alternatives of each procedure, empowering patients to make informed choices.

Every patient is unique, and I tailor treatment plans to their individual needs and desires. One-size-fits-all approaches have no place in my practice.

Patient safety is my top priority. I adhere to strict medical standards and use state-of-the-art techniques and equipment to minimize risks. I maintain the highest ethical standards, ensuring that patients are treated with respect, honesty, and integrity. I do not encourage unnecessary procedures or unrealistic expectations.

Recognizing that cosmetic surgery impacts both physical and emotional well-being, I support patients throughout their journey, addressing not only the surgical aspect but also their emotional and psychological needs.

Last, but not least, I aim to build long-term relationships with my patients, offering follow-up care and guidance as needed throughout their lives, and not only post-procedure. My goal is to empower patients to make choices that enhance their confidence and well-being and not only their appearance. I want them to feel in control of their journey to self-improvement."
