I found Mr. Nev Davies's details on the internet. When I contacted Mr. Davies's secretary early in March 2024, she said the first date available for an appointment with Mr. Davies would be 10th April 2024 and helpfully suggested two of Mr. Davies's colleagues who might be able to see me more quickly. Having tried to contact the two colleagues, I felt it would be better to wait and see Mr. Davies himself. Mr. Davies's secretary booked me an appointment on 10th April and said she would obtain the details of the letters sent following my appointments at the Royal Berkshire Hospital so Mr. Davies could be fully informed. I sent Mr. Davies' secretary details of all the appointments I had had so that he had a complete picture. In the period leading up to 10th April I explained to my GP that I had an appointment scheduled with Mr. Davies. My GP said this was an entirely reasonable thing to do and gave it as her opinion that Mr. Davies is “very good”. When I saw Mr. Davies on 10th April 2024 he was very friendly, approachable and sympathetic. He quickly appreciated the problem I had following my accident and that it was causing me continuing difficulties. Mr. Davies confirmed that my injury is unusual, but said that he was confident that it could be treated. Mr. Davies outlined two possible ways forward in treating my condition: one with the assistance of the radiotherapy team and a second with the advice of a consultant in the plastics team; and highlighted that I would also need physiotherapy. Mr. Davies introduced me to his secretary after the consultation on 10th April. His secretary promised to forward copies of the paperwork to the Royal Berkshire Hospital, to my GP and to me, which she did on 11th April 2024, the day after the consultation. I confirm that I am impressed by and grateful for Mr. Davies's assistance and that of his secretary.

On the whole, a lovely consultant. The reason for the 4 stars was a very slight language barrier, and also explanation of surgery in recovery when still groggy from anaesthetic. Not his fault, just time restraints. Happy for him to perform surgery in the future, if needed?

Excellent Doctor who was very understanding and kind. Very patient and friendly and treated me as an individual and a great listener.

From the first consultation I felt I was in incredibly capable hands. Mr Patel gave me all the information I needed and I went into surgery confident that it was the right course to take. Four months later my shoulder is feeling great and I’m already back doing physical activities I thought I wouldn’t be able to do again.

An excellent clinician with an evidence based approach to managing hip problems and wonderful bedside manner.
