As someone with Addisons I am always extra nervous with any treatments. Mr Paniker explained everything in amazing detail, from start to finish. He is extremely knowledgeable and has a natural ability to ease concerns. While lump was being removed, he was so paying attention to everything to make sure it was not only done correctly, but that I was pain free, calm and understood what was happening. I have dealt with hundreds of consultants, surgeons over the years and I can honestly say he is one of the best. He has given me full use of my hand without being in pain no more. He is all round outstanding.
