Mr Thakral explains everything in detail and put me at ease.
Very easy to follow the advice he offered and happy with the improvement to the problem to dare.
Mr Thakral has a lovely calm manner about him, I’m quite an anxious person but he made me feel very much at ease
Have been seen 8yrs ago by Mr Thakral and he still remembered me
I found Mr Thakral to be extremely caring, professional and highly capable. He took the time to explain everything clearly, listened to my concerns and made me feel confident and reassured throughout my treatment. The surgery went very well, and I am now able to move my shoulder much more freely, which has made a real difference to my day-to-day life. I am very pleased with the care and results and would have no hesitation in recommending Mr Thakral to other patients.
I was advised an excellent and professional conservative management option but on reflection have decided to go for a isolated long-headed biceps tenotomy in a weeks time
Mr Thakral is a professional, pleasant man. My questions were answered and his advice was given in a to the point professional manner, which I liked. His advice after a pain relief injection was to opt for surgery. X-rays we're shown to me and explained how my procedure would go ahead.
Mr Thakral was very professional, explaining everything to me prior to surgery. He came to see me after surgery and explained everything went well and what he had done. I felt comfortable with Mr Thakral and safe in his hands. Although not fully recovered, I can already feel a difference and much improvement. I would highly recommend Mr Thakral.
