Iain is a lovely friendly, knowledgeable doctor. He was very patient and honest explaining in detail the options available to me. I felt extremely confident in the outcome of my surgery (which went incredibly smoothly) and would have no hesitation recommending him to others.

Excellent from start to finish and explained everything perfectly throughout

I contacted Ali whilst abroad having dislocated my radius and ruptured ligaments at the elbow. He was able to give me good advice about what I needed to ask for locally, and arranged for an MRI immediately upon my return. He was reassuring throughout the recovery period that the ligaments would rejoin, and realistic about the time that this would take. He reviewed it a couple of times to adapt the brace and ensure that the progress was as expected, and has been happy to spend time in explaining the medical side of the injury and how the recovery would work. Thankfully, everything mended as Ali predicted. Unusually for a consultant, but not for him, Ali has been approachable throughout on Whatsapp and has updated me on the status of the scans as he has had the results rather than waiting for an appointment. I am happy to recommend Ali as a consultant in a similar situation - very competent, communicative, approachable and friendly - a refreshingly different experience from the norm. Thanks Ali.

Ms Moon was very friendly, she listened to me and very reassuring. Ms Moon put me at my ease.

Great experience with MR Wu, professional throughout and did a great job

Excellent rapport on risks and potential benefits of treatment and the time required for therapy and recuperation after faciectomy operation. A complex operation was undertaken and the potential for recurrence of the problem discussed and understood by the patient. I presented late with complex and widespread cords for Dupuytrens disease. I cannot be more pleased with the result, which has enabled a return to almost normal use of the hand and relieved discomfort in the joint areas. Dupuytrens disease is liable to return because of the nature of the disease and is not a reflection of the expertise of the surgeon but of the physiology of the particular patient. We were able to discuss options and timing of a return, should this be the case.

Very professional, open and friendly during the consultation backed up by high quality surgery and outcome at 3 months post operatively. I am confident this will improve further over time so am extremely grateful for the assistance from Mr. Rhee.

Mr Gozzard was very pleasant and thorough in his examination and explanations as to my options with regards to my right hand index finger. A replacement joint has been agreed on. I look forward to my agreed date for surgery.

Mr Riley took the time to explain my situation and go over x-rays and CT scan images. He ensured I understood everything before moving on. He explained the procedure and my next steps and left me feeling very reassured and supported.
