I came to Mr Anand Pillai with recurring foot pain that previous GPs were struggling to diagnose. Mr Pillai was able to determine the issue within minutes of meeting and recommended an MRI scan for 100% confidence in the diagnosis. He explained the diagnosis and treatment incredibly well and was patient and understanding when I had questions. I am glad I went to him with this issue, as I now finally have a diagnosis I can be confident in and understanding of how to treat it
