Explanation

I had two lots of treatment of PRP injections into each shoulder on two separate occasions. I have always found Mr Gulihar to be exceptionally professional and empathic. He explained the treatment and any side effects and was very supportive of my accessing the treatment via the NHS. My overall experience in Mr Gulihar's NHS clinic and the staff working with him was very good. The outcome of treatment in both shoulders has really worked. I have had an excellent outcome and I am very pleased.

Explanation

I had surgery for ulnar nerve decompression. I really appreciated what Mr Gulihar did with fitting me into his schedule. His bedside manner was great. He was friendly, sincere and explained everything in detail. Post surgery, his service was excellent with his response to my enquiries above and beyond. The stitching he performed was excellent. My scar has healed wonderfully, the scarring is minimal. Overall I found the service I received from Mr Gulihar was the best I have ever received from any doctor. I am 100% recovered.

Explanation

Mr Gulihar gave me a very honest, friendly discussion about the implications of having/not having an operation and that caring thought was taken right the way through from initial consultation through to leaving the hospital after my second wrist was mended. What was exceptional was his desire to find a hospital bed for me and I was the only patient which disrupted his schedule. Very pleased with both operations, neat stitching and skilful workmanship. I have full mobility of both arms.

I think Mr Gulihar is smashing - he makes you feel very much at ease. I didn't know what was wrong with me and I was in so much pain but all through my whole experience he explained everything clearly. I had an operation on my hand and the outcome is superb. The stitching on my hand was amazing and even better than a seamstress. Overall he was excellent. Big thanks to him.
