I was very impressed with my visit. Extremely professional with a warm welcome. I was seen straight by Mr Trickett who had professional and down to earth attitude. The after care to book my MRI was prompt and was able to fit in around me.
Pleasant experience very helpful. The surgery has worked well and made me confident with going ahead with the next surgery.
Ryan has a very warm, professional manner which made it easy to ask questions. I was very happy with his diagnosis and the treatment on the day. I appreciate that he warned me the injection might solve the situation, give relief for several months or not work at all in which case surgery might need to be considered.
Very knowledge and clear explanations. From initial meeting re my wrist Ganglion, to x-ray and aspiration and walking back to the car was 40 Mins!! Absolutely incredible !!
Mr Trickett is an excellent surgeon and clinician. He is dedicated to his patient care and would wholeheartedly endorse him.
