It was a very helpful to understand my results, Dr Antbring explained and referred me for physio and to a rheumatology consultant, hence, I think he was very thorough.

Getting a clear picture of what's going on is something I feel strongly about – it makes everything that follows more purposeful. With musculoskeletal issues, having the right team around you matters, and I'm glad bringing in physiotherapy and rheumatology alongside felt like the right approach for your situation. I hope the combined support gets you moving well again.

Dr. Antbring took great care of me taking the time to understand my situation before he went on to examine me. Later on he explained to me my condition and a couple of treatment options

Really glad the consultation felt thorough – taking the time to properly understand what's going on before jumping to conclusions is something I care about deeply, especially with musculoskeletal injuries where the picture is rarely straightforward. Giving you a clear explanation of your condition and the options available means you can make an informed choice about your own care, and that matters to me. I hope we get you moving well again soon.
