Mr Arealis was fantastic, he listened carefully to my symptoms, discussed my MRI scan and was very attentive. He genuinely cared about providing me with the best treatment he could. He set me up with an appropriate physiotherapist for my specific injury, not just a generic one that others have done. Mr Arealis has booked me in for another MRI to scan a different part of my body to investigate the problem further. Great service and hopefully he can help me get back to full health.
