Thank you so much Noel for your expertise. I brought in my son who has been experiencing pain from a complicated and long-standing injury. We had received advice from a surgeon that it might require surgery. We met Noel who listened extremely carefully to all the history -I felt he really wanted to understand all aspects. He then spent considerable time investigating him clinically. Noel almost seems to be able to see into the injury -such is his command of palpation and joint movement! He gave us his opinion and then a rehabilitation regime which was detailed and specific. I am extremely grateful to him for his skill and excellent communication throughout this process.
