WHO AM I?
My Name is Dr. Suhaib Hafi
I am Consultant Psychtiatrist. As a certified Medical Appraiser, I am up to date with the latest requirements for GMC Appraisals and Doctor Revalidation and I meet all the GMC requirements to undertake appraisals for doctors without a Designated Body.
I have experience of undertaking appraisals for all types of doctors, irrespective of their background, grade or specialty. This includes hospital doctors and GPs working in the NHS and private sectors, in substantive, part-time and locum positions.
This also includes doctors currently working outside the UK.
I provide medical appraisal services which are professional and supportive. Appraisal can be stressful however my advice and support will significantly reduce any stress related to the appraisal process. I aim for the medical appraisal to be a positive, constructive and rewarding experience.
As an Independent Medical Appraiser, I also use my considerable experience to provide supportive and effective UK Medical Appraisals for doctors who are currently residing outside UK.
If you do not have a designated body, I can help you with the paper work that the GMC, General Medical Council, UK, requires.
I meet all the GMC requirements for me to appraise doctors who do not have a designated body:
My Appraisal Fee
£300 – £500
My appraisal fee depends on the volume and complexity of your supporting information.
The fee covers my own preparation for your appraisal, conducting your appraisal and completing the post appraisal documentation.
Skype Appraisal
I can arrange both Skype and face to face appraisals.
A face to face appraisal will incur an additional fee of £100 for using an office space.
