Mr Bakti is a lovely consultant who puts his patients at ease and explains everything in detail
I am amazed how little acute pain i have had . Very neat scar all good so far
Very helpful, explained the procedure in detail, made me feel at ease to ask any questions. Provided reassurance that my recovery was going to plan. Very knowledgeable, kind and professional doctor.
Mr Bakti is very informative and outlines the procedure in a non technical manner.
Been diagnosed with frozen shoulders. I was under the impression I woukd get an appointment for my imagery steroid injection from them, but no, have to wait as I'm nhs patient, it's gone to NHS booking system. Other than that experience was fine.
Mr Bakti is a very good doctor. He explained everything that he had done during my operation 9 weeks earlier and we discussed my up and coming future operation. I have had total faith in his knowledge and ability since meeting him on the first occasion and I would choose Mr Bakti for any future orthopedic interventions if required.
My experience was wonderful mr Bakti is a great doctor. Kind caring and has a lovely manner. I was so very happy with the operation in his care.
Mr Bakti was a really lovely and friendly co sultant who went through everything I needed and was very reassuring. An overall lovely experience
