I was seen on the day , nurses explained what would happen took me to room for procedure, where Dr Palilal was present with other nurses who were made me feel comfortable and Dr Palilal completed procedure. I would recommend Dr Palilal to anyone who is having problems with de quervain's tenosynovitis. Dr Palilal also called me for a follow up to see how I was getting on and if I had any problems.

Very pleasant man and sensitive surgeon: he understood how much my hands mean to me (because I’m a pianist). Surgery was neat and produced immediate relief.
