Dr Hudaifa Al Ani
Consultant Rheumatologist
MBBS, MRCP (Rheum), BSc
I am a Consultant Rheumatologist and General Internal Medicine physician. Alongside my private practice, I hold a substantive NHS Consultant post at Wexham Park Hospital, Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust. Prior to this, I worked as a Consultant at London North West University Healthcare NHS Trust across Northwick Park and Ealing Hospitals.
I graduated from King’s College London in 2013 and also completed a BSc in Cardiovascular Sciences at Imperial College London. I achieved my Certificate of Completion of Training (CCT) in Rheumatology and General Internal Medicine in 2023 following specialist training within the Thames Valley Deanery, including time at the Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre in Oxford.
I provide comprehensive rheumatology care for a wide range of musculoskeletal and autoimmune conditions. My areas of expertise include rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, gout, fibromyalgia, vasculitis, lupus, polymyalgia rheumatica, osteoarthritis and osteoporosis. I also have an interest in sports and exercise medicine and offer joint and soft tissue injections where appropriate.
I have particular expertise in inflammatory arthritis, vasculitis, systemic lupus erythematosus (lupus), osteoporosis and complex multisystem autoimmune diseases. My approach focuses on achieving an early diagnosis, providing evidence-based treatment and working closely with other healthcare professionals to ensure coordinated care.
I am committed to providing personalised, patient-centred care. I believe in clear communication and shared decision-making, helping patients understand their diagnosis and treatment options so they can feel informed and supported throughout their care journey.
Alongside my clinical work, I am actively involved in NHS service development, quality improvement, medical education and research. I have published in peer-reviewed medical journals and presented my work at national and international rheumatology meetings, including the British Society for Rheumatology (BSR) and the European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR).
