Mr Murray was outstanding and I would highly recommend him. Every visit he explained to me clearly what he was doing and why he needed to do it. Always took the time to explain things and go through my xrays and scans with me. Both before and after surgery he was informative and supportive. The surgery and my recovery went really well. Very grateful for his skill and expertise.

Excellent experience from initial consultation through surgery and aftercare. Overall I am very pleased with the results of my surgery for dupuytren's. As a guitarist it was particularly important to get a good result on the little finger of my left (fretting) hand.
