Richard is a highly professional and competent physician. He quickly diagnosed my problem which was subsequently confirmed by MRI. His recommended treatment was highly effective. I am without pain for the first time in 3 months.

Getting someone out of pain after three months is exactly what drives this work – I'm really pleased the diagnosis and treatment have landed so well for you. Guided joint injections can make a meaningful difference when the underlying problem is identified accurately, and it sounds like you're already feeling the benefit. Enjoy moving freely again.

Really glad I could make the experience feel straightforward – tendinopathy can be daunting when you're not sure what to expect, so taking the time to walk through everything properly matters to me. Hope you're well on the way back to doing what you enjoy.
