Consultations

Dr Dario Ahangari trained, qualified and is recognised as a Consultant Dermatologist in Belgium. He is recognised by most international private medical insurers, including BUPA Global, Cigna, April and CFE and more, but some UK insurers do not recognise him as he didn't qualify in the UK. So please check with your insurer if they will reimburse you for consultations and/or treatment.

Dr Gardette practises as a Dermatologist at The Royal Free NHS Hospital in London. As she trained and qualified in France she is not recognised as a Consultant Dermatologist here in the UK and so some UK private medical insurers such as Bupa, Axa and similar, do not recognise her. So please check with your insurer as to whether or not they will cover a consultation and/or treatment with Dr Gardette.

Please note that if you have a minor procedure, such as removal of a skin lesion, a clinic fee will be payable to The Medical Chambers Kensington in addition to the Clinician's fee.

This fee varies from procedure to procedure and our Administration and Reception Team will be able to tell you the amount payable for your procedure. A pathology fee will be payable if we send a sample to a laboratory for analysis.

If you are insured by BUPA, AXA PPP or another insurance company with which we have a direct settlement agreement, we will invoice your Insurer for these clinic/pathology fees provided that you have given us your preauthorisation number.

If we do not have a direct settlement agreement with your insurer, or you are self paying, we will ask you to pay these fees at the time of your appointment.
