Just adding another great review to Dr IT's record! The hinges on my laptop gave in, leaving me in a precarious position. As I was in a position to delivery the machine myself, I was able to drop it off at the business. Vlad was very personable, knowledgeable, and great at translating my over-Googled terminology into a plan of action. My laptop was returned to me in great shape, not only with new, strong hinges, but a fresh install of the Operating System and a few other small replacements, which Vlad and I had discussed.
Overall, this was an excellent customer experience, I felt everything was clearly explained in a way I could understand and Vlad kept me updated about how my repairs were going. I would recommend Dr IT's services to anyone in the area who is having personal computing troubles.

I recently contacted Vlad as I had seen the online reviews as my MacBook Pro needed a new screen. I was expecting it to take 3-4 days but the screen was diagnosed, ordered and fitted in 24 hours. Really efficient and friendly service. Highly recommend and the Mac Book is like new again.

I had an issue with my PC not booting properly after some maintenance job done by myself. Dr IT quickly diagnosed the problem and fixed it efficiently. He is very professional, knowledgeable, and very helpful throughout the process. My computer is now running perfectly somehow even better than used to be. Highly recommended for anyone who needs reliable IT support in Birmingham!”

Our external hard drive stopped working all of a sudden. It was quite old and had a lot of memories on it. We went to Vlad who quickly diagnosed the problem and advised that it needed to be sent to a specialist data recovery company. Vlad arranged everything and they recovered more than 95% of the files within 10 days. I paid £450 in total and they provided the data onto a new hard drive for us. Thanks Vlad - highly recommended.

I recently took my laptop to Dr IT for a RAM upgrade from 16GB to a whopping 64GB and the whole process was smooth and hassle-free. The owner was incredibly helpful, friendly, and clearly knew his stuff. He explained everything, made sure I understood the upgrade, and handled it all with care and professionalism.

The service was top-notch, the turnaround time was quick, and the price was very reasonable for the quality of work. You can tell they genuinely care about getting your machine running at its best.

Highly recommend this place if you're looking to upgrade or repair your laptop or PC. Great experience from start to finish!

I found Dr IT - aka Vlad sir, incredibly professional and extremely knowledgeable. I found Dr IT from an online search, and my laptop was up and working after 24 hours. Quickly identified the problem and fixed it. Price was reasonable. But the quality of repair cannot be faulted. My laptop was overheating and now it runs smooth, the fan can be heard and it's a relief that I did not have to immediately buy a new one. Vlad sir, is extremely near to me and his business being so reliable and so close is a gem. His personality, way of dealing with his clients is rare. I appreciated the opportunity to come across him and would recommend him not only to people I know but to anyone who reads this review.
