Full explanation of left shoulder and arm pain given. Discussed potential next steps and options for treatment . Agreed. Then 2 targeted steroid injections given in shoulder. With 10 minutes I felt a bit of discomfort where at one injection site but overall the original pain are nearly gone. This is first time of 4 steroid injections given in treatments that my pain has been reduced. I have a clear plan forward and finally a diagnosis I understand. I’m very grateful!!!!
All the appointments I had with Dr Adam went so well. He examined the issue very well and he always explained the issue with a clear language that any patient can understand. The solutions he suggested and applied were also very helpful. After the steroid injection I had by Dr Adam back in October I didn’t suffer with pain so far. Thank you for everything.
I was impressed at how quickly I was treated. Getting an X-ray of my injured shoulder immediately on my first visit and MRI a week later. Mr Adam explained everything very clearly, and sent a written summary. At my third consultation. He administered an injection which helped me have greater mobility of my arm and reduced the pain. This was followed up by a visit to the physiotherapist who gave exercises to strengthen my upper arm muscles. I was impressed with the friendly, efficient and professional service received from all the staff involved in my treatment, as well as by the clear explanations given.
Mr Adams was very caring and explained my condition in a manner I could understand.
Mr Adam was extremely thorough in his explanation and also caring when administering my injections. I feel so much better knowing that i am being looked after by my consultant. Thank you Mr Adam.
From the start of my consultation with Mr John Adam, and all the way through to my shoulder operation has been absolutely fantastic. I could not have been in better hands, thank you for your attention to detail,thank you very much i am now pain free and it is down to you and your staff.
My experience has been brilliant throughout the whole process. I cannot fault the treatment I received both in hospital and during aftercare with physio and outpatient appointments with Mr Adam.
Mr Adam has been excellent with his help and advise in regards to my shoulder pain. Unpins and pain have drastically improved thanks to his diagnosis and referrals.
Mr Adam has done an amazing job of fixing my elbow which was badly damaged
Massive appreciation to the incredible team at Scarborough Hospital — The nurses, Ali and Becky for looking after me before and after surgery, John the anaesthetist, and surgeons John and Spiros — you were all absolute legends. Thank you for putting me back together. I felt like Mr Adam had lots of time to explain everything before and after the operation as well as during my 2 week consultation.
