Mr Walton is clear in his communication. He accessed my NHS MRI scan and queried the diagnosis. He undertook his own examination then referred me to a colleague at Wilmslow for additional ultrasound scans and concluded that a non-surgical intervention was more appropriate (whereas NHS had recommended surgery). Subsequent to the treatment received from Mr Walton, I have had very little pain and significant improvement in the range of movement in my shoulder.
