Recent rotator cuff surgery for capsulitus. Good initial consultation and explanation and risks involved through whole process discussing treatment risks and aftercare. On day of surgery put myself at ease. Always felt I was in safe hands with Mr AYoub.

From start to finish the process was simple. I was in for carpul tunnel surgery on my right hand. The operation was fast and the recovery went well. Thank you Dr Ayoub for fixing my hand. Highly recommend.

I was in Dr Ayoub’s care 4 years ago for the same condition on my alternate shoulder. I knew I wanted to come back and see him again as he had provided excellent treatment and care. He has such a great aura about him which makes you feel comfortable and at ease. He ran through all options that were available to me and what he medically recommends. I had struggled both mentally and physically with the pain I had been enduring and I can’t put into words how happy I am with the outcome of my treatment. The results from my operation have given me a new lease of life, I have movement I never thought I would get back. I could not recommend him enough and feel so lucky to have had such a talented surgeon.

Mr Ayoub is incredibly professional and I was impressed by his attention to detail regarding the surgery I received (Cubital Tunnel Release). The scar I have now is much smaller than I was expecting and had healed really well. He was easily contactable across the whole time I was in his care (before and after the operation) through his online portal. He also always made sure I had opportunities to ask questions and made me feel confident to ask follow up questions too whenever I had them.
