Mr Ravi Mallina

As a GP myself, I think i am pretty demanding patient and Mr Mallina was brilliant at explaining my wrist problem and make a good plan. He was very nice too!

I highly recommend Mr. Mallina. My ulnar nerve compression symptoms progressed from acute to severe in only 3 months, leading to loss of grip and sensation. Mr. Mallina performed the surgery, finding a second muscle causing the compression at the cubital tunnel. My recovery has been remarkable; at my follow-up, my grip strength and sensation exceeded expectations. He is a reassuring surgeon who explains the 'why' behind symptoms, put you at ease throughout & checks in before and after surgery.

Mr Mallina has a friendly relaxed and positive approach. He explained and demonstrated the remedial exercises needed for my fractured shoulder very clearly.

After some time waiting for an NHS wrist fusion; I decided to have the surgery privately and saw Mr Mallina at Shirley Oaks Hospital. Mr Mallina recommended a wrist denervation as a better option for me than the fusion. It would be a much less invasive procedure, with a quicker recovery time, and it would leave open the possibility of a fusion in the future. I am so glad I accepted his advice. Less than 2 months on from the surgery, I can undertake heavy work in the garden without needing to wear a splint, the surgery scar has virtually disappeared and I am almost pain-free. I couldn't be happier with the service provided by Mr Mallina and his team at Shirley Oaks Hospital.

Mr Mallina has been excellent throughout the whole procedure of my scaphoid break, he assisted me through the whole procedure excellent and making sure I get put first no matter the circumstances, he completed a successful surgery and has left an excellent looking, clean scar, I cannot recommend him enough, he is extremely knowledgeable and has my full trust.

Very positive experience from a first class surgeon.

Mr Mallina was wonderful - very caring, very professional and very thorough in his explanations - he also took his time seeing me , inc on my followup visits -- I would highly recommend him!

Mr Mallina explained everything to me in great depth in a clear way that was easy to understand. The procedure I needed was performed well and the follow up care was also of a very high standard

I had surgery for a clavicle fracture and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Mr Mallina made everything feel straightforward and under control from day one. The operation went smoothly, my scar has healed really well, and my movement is already back to near normal. He’s professional but also very easy to talk to, which made a big difference during recovery. You feel like you’re in safe hands.

Saw Mr Mallina at the Cromwell Hospital. No waiting, very prompt Explained clearly the diagnosis and rehab treatment required. Very personable
