Dr Samir Naseef, MD
Clinical Director
Dr Naseef is a Head GP, with over 20 years of experience in practising medicine, having trained at world class hospitals. As a GP – he spends most of time seeing and managing patients with chronic conditions – who are often on a variety of pharmaceutical medications.
Having seen and experienced the limitations and issues that arise from the overuse of pharmaceutical medicines, Dr Naseef believes that patients should have access to alternative forms of treatment which may be equally or even more effective than prescription alternatives.
Being Head GP of a large GP surgery group, Dr Naseef has demonstrable experience in the managing of private healthcare organisations, particularly those which work closely with and provide services for the NHS. As such, his expertise is invaluable to Neuraleaf, understanding the needs of individual patients with chronic conditions, as well as the needs of the NHS as a whole and how Neuraleaf can address these.
