Dr Mughal gave me the confidence I needed to get back to running and training again. I have seen him twice now, and both times gave me care and understanding. He is attentive and gives a clear diagnosis. The rehab plan is thorough and I feel in safe hands. I would always come back with any type of injury I am so thankful I found Dr Mughal!

Dr Mughal is a true master of his craft! He kindly and clearly walked me through my MRI scans with a level of detail that was comprehendable for someone non-medical (myself). The physical assessment and treatment plan gave me a renewed confidenced in getting my back issue resolved - thank you Doctor :) And a thank you to Vlad Martis who has been an absolute superstar organising my appointment in minutes and finding my scans from different clinics.

Dr. Mughal was extremely knowledgable and understanding. A good communicator, he really helped me understand the detail of my knee problem. I appreciated his talk-through of the ultrasound scan as it was being done.

Dr Mughal was extremely helpful in listening to my concerns and then investigating into my injuries without haste. I was extremely pleased with his manner and left the consultation with a sense that I'm in good hands under his care. I can highly recommend Dr Mughal having seen a number of clinicians during the past 8 months for my injury.
