Why people come

Most of our patients were sent here by someone who already trusts us.

Two specialists

A consultant dermatologist and a consultant paediatrician, both seeing patients personally.

One clinic

Your skin and your children's health looked after in the same place, by people who know your family.

Explained clearly

You leave understanding what you have and why — not just holding a prescription.

The doctors

Because most visitors arrive already knowing a name, the people come before anything else on this page.

One consultant for the full range of skin disease, alongside facial reconstruction and minor skin surgery carried out at the clinic. Hair is a substantial part of the practice: hair fall, alopecia areata and pattern hair loss, treated medically or with PRP and GFC.

His practice is evidence-based. The treatment follows the diagnosis, and the reasoning behind it is explained to you before anything begins.

She looks for the cause rather than treating the symptom in front of her — which is why parents tend to leave understanding what was actually wrong.

Her particular interest is developmental paediatrics: how a child is growing, feeding, moving and learning, not only whether they are unwell today.

Treated at this clinic

Real cases from Ridhan. Nothing clinical is shown until you ask for it — hover a card, or tap on a phone, and it turns over to reveal the before and after photographs side by side. Identifying features have been obscured. Results differ from person to person: these show what was achieved for one patient, not what is promised to you.

The approach

A diagnosis is only useful if the person receiving it understands it.

The working principle at Ridhan

What happens when you book

Appointments are confirmed by a person, never an automated calendar — so you always speak to someone before you travel.

01

You send a request

By phone, WhatsApp, or the form below. Your name, a number, and what it's about.

02

We call you back

We agree a time that works and tell you which doctor you will be seeing.

03

Consultation

An unhurried examination. Bring any previous prescriptions or reports.

04

Diagnosis, explained

What the condition is and why, in plain language, with room for your questions.

05

A plan you agreed to

Options, likely timeline, and what it costs — before anything begins.

06

Follow-up

When to come back, and what progress should look like by then.

Dr Aravindan is very good and caring. He avoids unnecessary tests and does not make the patient panic. He explains everything clearly and treats the patient with great patience and kindness. We are very satisfied with his treatment and would highly recommend him.

Visited this clinic for a persistent scalp issue and I’m honestly impressed with the approach. The consultation was detailed but not overwhelming, and the doctor explained everything in simple terms. I liked that they focused on a step-by-step treatment plan rather than suggesting too many things at once.

I visited Ridhan Skin Clinic for scabies treatment and had a very good experience. The doctor was professional, caring, and explained the treatment clearly. My scabies was cured successfully after following the treatment. I’m happy with the results and would recommend Ridhan Skin Clinic to others.

I had a good experience at this dermatology clinic. I went in for a fungal infection, and the doctor explained the issue and treatment clearly. The treatment worked well, and I’m happy with the improvement. The staff were also friendly and the overall experience was smooth. Would recommend this clinic.

The doctor was very patient and actually listened to my concerns instead of rushing through the consultation. What I appreciated most was the clear explanation of my condition and the treatment options — no unnecessary procedures were pushed, and everything felt transparent.

I underwent treatment for my scalp issue, and over the next few weeks I could genuinely see improvement. The follow-up guidance was also very practical and easy to stick to.
