I saw Dr Joshi for a potential frozen shoulder. I had an initial appointment followed by additional tests and we concluded that a steroid injection would be beneficial. I had the injection and the impact was pretty instant and has continued to improve over the last few days. I am so relieved and delighted as a previous frozen shoulder had taken months to resolve without the injection.

Absolutely fantastic doctor. He got to the heart of the problem and in 2-3 weeks post his assessment I’m back to where I want to be with training and day to day life.

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.
