🚨Birmingham Hair Growth Centre (8 George Road, Birmingham) 🚨I am writing this to warn the public based on my real and documented experience.🗓️ What Happened to MeI attended a consultation at the Birmingham clinic on 19 September 2025. I met a staff member called Muhammad (also known as Salman Sheikh) and a manager named Rajesh Patel. I was encouraged to book quickly and was told the procedure would be carried out locally. The following day, I paid a £1,000 deposit.I was then informed that the surgery would actually take place in Kenton, London, at a different clinic called My Hair Transplant, on Sunday 21 September at 8AM.I travelled to London, arrived early, and paid the remaining £800. I was taken into a very cold room, had my blood pressure checked once, and was immediately told it was “too high.” Within minutes, the surgery was cancelled. I was not shown the reading, was not given time to rest and re-test, and was even offered medication on the spot, which I refused. I have no history of blood pressure problems.That same day, I had my blood pressure checked three times at a pharmacy in Birmingham — all readings were normal. I continued to monitor it for the next three days and sent photo evidence as requested. They ignored all of it.❗ What Made the Situation Even More ConcerningAfter researching the company on 24 September 2025, I found many reviews describing almost identical experiences. I returned to the Birmingham office to demand a refund.Muhammad advised me to email their “head office” and even suggested wording to improve my chances. I followed his instructions.Four days later, I received an email from someone called Amit Jaiswal, stating that a refund would only be considered if I provided medical evidence that I was permanently unfit for a hair transplant. This was despite the cancellation being made by their own clinic.On 1 October 2025, I returned again to speak to a manager. After delays, I was promised a call the next day. When I received that call on 2 October, I was again told no refund without a doctor’s letter. I returned to the office again and refused to leave without a fair resolution.The police were called on me.When the police arrived, I remained calm, explained everything, and showed evidence including similar online complaints. The officers were understanding and advised me to report the matter to the relevant authorities.⚠️ NDA Pressure, Review Removal & Regulatory ConcernsI was later:Asked to remove my reviews in exchange for my refundPressured to sign an NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) as a condition of being refundedTold to send the signed NDA directly to one of the managers via WhatsAppAs of 27 November 2025, I have still received no refund whatsoever, purely because I have refused to sign the NDA and remove my reviews.I also discovered that Birmingham Hair Growth Centre does not appear to be registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC), whereas My Hair Transplant in Kenton is registered. This raised even more serious concerns for me about regulation and accountability.⚠️ My Honest Warning to the PublicFrom my experience, this business:Gave misleading information about treatment locationCancelled at the last minute using medical reasons I later proved falseTook full payment before any treatmentRefused a refund without unreasonable medical demandsTried to link refunds to NDA signing and review removalDirected legal paperwork through WhatsApp rather than formal channelsThis process has caused me serious financial loss, emotional distress, and ongoing stress for over two months.✅ What I Am Doing NextI am reporting this matter to:Trading Standards via Citizens AdviceAction Fraud UKThe Care Quality Commission (CQC)And the General Medical Council (GMC) if any staff claim to be qualified doctors⚠️ This is my truthful personal experience. I strongly urge anyone considering these clinics to proceed with extreme caution, keep all written evidence, and fully research before paying any money.
