Why Liverpool’s Rodney Street really is the Harley Street of the North

Liverpool city centre’s historic Rodney Street has long been known as the ‘Harley Street of the North’.

 

For years private doctors have operated clinics from behind the walls of Georgian townhouses at prestigious addresses on both Rodney Street in Liverpool and Harley Street in London.

 

With a recent television documentary exploring the change of Harley Street from secluded medical refuge for aristocracy to a centre for boob jobs, tummy tucks and hair transplants, the ECHO took a look at the businesses operating from Rodney Street.

 

A quick Google search found 16 firms promising to improve your look, showing Rodney Street is indeed still the Harley Street of the North.

Is Liverpool popular for cosmetic surgery?

Last year Liverpool was named the boob job capital of Britain .

And it’s not just women wanting appearance-altering treatment.

 

A cosmetics doctor told the ECHO last year he has seen a huge rise in demand for botox in Liverpool .

Why is Rodney Street popular with firms offering cosmetic procedures?

Mr Sohail Akhtar, consultant plastic and cosmetic surgeon at Liverpool Cosmetic Clinic, told the ECHO: “As one of the biggest hubs for medical and surgical specialists outside Harley Street in London, Rodney Street attracts GMC (General Medical Council) certified specialists from all over the North West.

 

“A wide variety of specialities are represented, including the rapidly growing area of cosmetic surgery and aesthetic medicine. If a patient is seeking a reputable accredited surgeon, Rodney Street is definitely the Harley Street of the North, providing patients with confidence of quality.”
