The Medi-Shed story

highcompress-Dr Dil 030419-60.jpg

It started in the Shed...

Having spent many years in dentistry, I wanted to expand into the world of holistic facial aesthetics. We converted our shed at the bottom of the garden and called it 'The Medi-Shed by Dr Dil', a Skin Health and Wellness Clinic specialising solely in non-surgical facial rejuvenation and wellbeing. 

​

The Medi-Shed was a haven of bespoke, holistic facial aesthetic and wellbeing treatments. I was GDC registered (General Dental Council 75115). I became a full member of BCAM (British College Of Aesthetic Medicine), 'Platinum status' with Saveface, and was listed on the 'Tweakment Guide'. I underwent extensive training and checks. 

My excellent understanding of facial anatomy, aesthetic eye, and medical knowledge helped me provide the right treatment plans for my patients.

The Medi-Shed success...

​The Medi-Shed business grew thanks to all my wonderful and loyal patients. I was committed to explore new and exciting treatments for clients. I became an Obagi Medical Ambassador, fully trained using non invasive skin treatments, won many awards and appeared in press articles across the UK.

 

These achievements made me realise I needed to break away from the Shed and continue to build a brand that will be there for years to come. The Shed in the garden had been a brilliant success, it had done its job and time had come to say farewell. Time for a bigger and better Medi-Shed to share with existing and new clients.

A new chapter...

"This building, is a Grade II listed terrace from the mid-nineteenth century, and it was once a bustling chemist, it now breathes new life as The Medi-Shed 2.0. Its rich history and character drew me in – especially the original sign that reads 'Prescriptions Prepared.' It felt like destiny." As I'm prescribing all day!  The sign is an original mirror from that era with beautiful gilt writing… Well it seemed this was the perfect new home for The Medished as I used to pass this building daily on the school run, and being a local resident I always thought this would be a fantastic dream location for a medical aesthetic clinic!

Labour of love

"The restoration of this listed building took 9 months to give it back its original glow. It has been a LABOUR OF LOVE and taking it on in its negelcted state was a very scary decision! However all that effort has been rewarded and it’s now complete now for us all to enjoy. My vision was for this clinic too look completely unique so the interiors were styled with 'Alice in Wonderland' in mind as that was my favourite book growing up as a child! We preserved as many original features as possible, from the charming shelving in the reception, to restoring original fireplaces, to the apothecary bottles, some even bearing my initials, 'DIL.' So This place was meant for me."I've been able to express my creative side to hopefully create something really special where patients attending will feel really happy.  I hope you enjoy the clinic's elegant and inviting ambience, coupled with my medical expertise. There isn't a medical aesthetic clinic that looks quite like it in my opinion!

"Our ethos is simple: provide high-quality, expert-led skincare and non-invasive treatments in an approachable environment. We aim to revive beauty and inner wellbeing through personalised patient plans and cutting-edge medical technology." As a clinic - on going education in this field and patient safety is really important to me. I am delighted to share with you all that I have recently passed the two part MBCAM Examination to becoming a Full Member of The British College of Aesthetic Medicine - A Masters degree - for which I'm the first dentist in the UK to achieve - an absolute career highlight for me. We also have platinum status with Saveface so patients can reassured that we are providing medically safe treatments in an ethical practice.

Secret garden

The Medi-Shed 2.0 has its own 'SECRET GARDEN' We can use this
space to hold educational and fun events, chill out, enjoy a cuppa tea, have conversation and connection, have a stretch and even exercise, bringing the community together - a local community l've been part of for the last 25 years! We recently hosted our first couple of patient events, where the community came together to experience our new consultation tools - the Observ 520x, learn about all our medical devices and enjoy some elderflower cordial and refreshments from local businesses - The local support has been overwhelming.. for which I’m really grateful!

​

"The Medi-Shed is more than a clinic; it's a community. A place to connect, rejuvenate, and thrive. Thank you for considering us for your medical aesthetic journey. We're excited to be on this journey with you."
