Mr Peter Dacombe is consistently excellent, professional, and clear in his patient interactions. He provides thorough explanations for conditions and treatments, including steroid injections, labrum repair, and ASAD with distal clavicle excision. Patients feel confident and find his advice reassuring for their recovery. His expertise in managing frozen shoulder and ongoing pain earns widespread patient praise.
I rate my experience a 5/5. My labrum repair surgery went well and the recovery process has been going as expected. My advice would be to follow the physiotherapy plan, and be patient with recovery.
Peter was very clear on the diagnosis and the pros of cons of each treatment option. I would highly recommend Peter if you need support, guidance, diagnosis and treatment.
Review my MRI scan - explained treatment extremely well. Always a pleasure to see.
Latest visit was to check wound and shoulder movement post op. All good, photos of the injury shared and talked thru what to now expect and what to do if there's any recurrance.
Very pleased with the care, advice and treatment offered.,
Very happy with my visits. Mr Dacombe is polite and friendly, offering clear and concise approach to both diagnostics and advice.
A fantastic surgeon - great with patients - excellent treatment
First time meeting Mr Dacombe, I found him to be pleasant, knowledgeable and very approachable. He answered the questions I posed with clarity, and was able to quieten some of the worries I had about my injury going forward. It is also reassuring, that should I have concerns in the future, he will be there to help me out
Mr Dacombe was amazing. Very knowledgeable, personable and immediately made me feel confident in his abilities. He diagnosed my issue immediately and offered to do the steroid injection there and then. I have been suffering for a few months and this was such a relief for me rather than having to wait for another appointment. I am very grateful for the service that I received today from Mr Dacombe. Absolutely top marks!
I have worked with Mr Dacombe for a number of years. He is a skilled, diligent and highly professional surgeon, who provides excellent care for all his patients. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough!
