Dr Joshi is excellent. Very professional, friendly and, most importantly, very effective. He has developed a technique that substantially reduces the pain for the procedure I had. It was much less painful than when I had the same procedure a few years ago with a different doctor. I absolutely recommend him.

Dr Joshi listens very well and clearly explains the diagnosis and treatment so I knew what to expect. The injection was painless and the results were very good. He gave me confidence and motivation to keep going with the prehab. I have gone from walking with a limp and hip pain going up stairs to running 5k Parkruns without pain.

I had an appointment on 22/04/2026 at 17:40 at Homerton Radiology (X-ray Reception, Ultrasound Room 3) for injections in both hips, and I just wanted to share how positive my experience was. The nurse and doctor who looked after me were absolutely excellent. They were professional, calm, and very reassuring throughout the whole procedure, which made a potentially stressful situation feel much more comfortable. They explained everything clearly, checked in with me regularly, and showed genuine care and attention. The procedure itself was carried out smoothly and efficiently, and I felt I was in very safe hands at all times. I’m really grateful for their kindness and professionalism — they truly did a great job. Thank you again to the team for such outstanding care!
