Mr Ray was kind and conscientious throughout my treatment. He is clearly an excellent surgeon , and my recovery has been exemplary due to the work he did in theatre, such that my rehab physio has also been very impressed. I highly recommend him and would happily be treated by him again ( although I hope I don’t need to!!).

Mr Ray consulted and operated on my fully ruptured Achilles tendon. He was fantastic from the first visit onwards - very informative, clear about objectives and expectations, personable, and ready to listen and respond as needed. I really appreciated his positive energy and consistent approach and I had full confidence in him going into the surgery which was 100% successful. Very grateful to be under his care.

Received excellent advice and support. Always felt comfortable, well informed and confident throughout. Always listened to my concerns and acted on them. I felt he always put my needs first and gave best proactive care even to giving steroid injection in clinic avoiding longer wait for ultrasound as pain was severe.

Seeking Dr. Pinak Ray's expertise for my unstable ankle was the best decision I could have made. His professionalism was immediately apparent, coupled with a comprehensive knowledge that gave me complete confidence. The diagnostic process was remarkably efficient – an MRI on the same day as my initial appointment, followed by a surgery appointment within a week, showcasing his dedication and swift action. Dr. Ray demonstrated exceptional patient care, ensuring I felt informed and supported at every stage. I must also extend my sincere thanks to the excellent Circle staff, who were consistently kind and helpful, and to the dedicated physiotherapy team, whose expert guidance has been instrumental in my recovery. Now, two months post-operatively, my recovery is progressing exceptionally well, and I'm regaining full mobility. I confidently and enthusiastically recommend Dr. Ray and his entire team to anyone seeking expert orthopaedic care.
