Had an amazing consultation with Gill Harrison today. Having experienced my hair getting thinner and not growing for over a year despite trying many solutions, I decided to seek professional help. I was really pleased I chose the Elan clinic in Stratford. Gill was extremely professional, understanding and knowledgeable about my condition. I had some diagnostic tests done which she spent the time clearly explaining the process, next steps and a treatment plan. I came away from our consultation feeling really positive and reassured, would definitely recommend to others

I cannot thank Gill enough for her empathy, hard work, research and caring that she has given me, she put me at my ease the moment I met her. I cannot recommend her enough as her professionalism, passion and determination to help really is outstanding. The service and detail that she goes into is second to none and you will definitely not find anybody to compare her to, due to her dedication & heartfelt passion!!

If you think you need a Trichologist, Gill is the best person to see, I truly recommend her !!!!

Joy

I recently attended the elan Trichology Clinic in Stratford Upon Avon over concerns about my dry itchy scalp. My Trichologist is Gill Harrison and I honestly can’t recommend her enough. Gill has been amazing since my consultation and she is always there if I need any advice or support. It’s been just over 4 weeks since I visited the clinic and in that small time I’ve noticed significant improvement with my hair and scalp following Gills instructions! I look forward to continue working with Gill to help achieve my desired results! Would highly recommend anyone with any scalp or hair issues to visit
