Excellent treatment from Mr Parmar. Everything was explained clearly, and I felt in very good hands throughout. I was pleasantly surprised that it was completely pain-free. Thank you.
Listened and suggested treatment options. After considering an injection. This worked really well and went without any issues
Thank you for your calm, informative manner, you provide such confidence to your clients.
Ongoing shoulder issues, but i put every trust in Kal to sort it out.
First class all round.
Many thanks for the review and hope all goes well.
Dr Parmar was professional, accurate, kind, amd swift in his communications. He dealt with my injury and went above and beyond to investigate its route causes.
Thanks for your kind words and wishing you a speedy recovery
Went for PRP injections - waiting to see if they have cured the elbow.
Dr Parmar was kind and attentive. I had to do a guided steroid injection but he kept me calm and kept me talking and it was done in just a few minutes. Lots of empathy and kindness.
Many thanks for the review, hope it all goes well
I was referred to Dr Parmar by my physio after a bad knee injury. I found Dr Parmar to be extremely knowledgeable, kind and considerate. Don’t be put off by the Elite Sports title of the business - I’m certainly not in that category and was treated so well. The treatment I had went very smoothly, and I felt an almost immediate improvement. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Dr Parmar. I should also mention his wonderful assistant Carmen-so helpful, efficient, kind and friendly.
Many thanks for taking the time to leave a review, we really value your feedback and are especially grateful for thanking our admin team who work tireless in the background to make sure everything runs smoothly.

Grappling with Injuries – Common Injuries in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a martial art that emphasizes ground fighting, submissions, and control, combining technique, strategy, and physicality. While BJJ is generally safer than high-impact sports like MMA or boxing, the close-contact nature and intensity of sparring can lead to injuries. This blog explores the most common injuries in BJJ, their causes, prevention strategies, and treatments.
