The doctor other doctors trained under.

Dr Adel Elalfy has been a GP in Britain for more than twenty-five years and leads primary care at The Wellness. He has been a Fellow of the Royal College of General Practitioners, its most senior grade, since 2001, and has taught and examined medical students at Keele for fifteen years.

Earlier in his career he ran stroke services across his region and built the rapid-assessment pathway used to get patients seen quickly. That work still shows in how he reads a blood pressure or a heart rhythm, and in the symptoms he does not let pass.

He has held the same partnership since 2007 and consults in English and Arabic. What patients tend to mention is that he remembers the small details and follows them up, and that he is hard to rush.

Where he does his finest work

Stroke and cardiovascular care

A career built around the heart and circulation, from leading a regional stroke service to catching the early warning signs most people walk past.

Chronic disease, managed to target

Blood pressure, diabetes and heart disease held to the numbers that actually protect you, reviewed and adjusted rather than left to drift.

Prevention and the long view

Screening, risk and health optimisation, so problems are found early and the next twenty years are planned for, not just the next appointment.
