I saw dr Shenker after having to repeatedly justify my request to my Gp. It took and 8 hr round trip to have this appointment. This very kind dr listened understood and knew about my condition which is so rare these days. I’ve seen many medical professionals and dr Shenker is at the top of the list of caring and productivity. After finally get the diagnosis I needed her has written an extensive informative letter to my Gp with requests on follow up treatments and management. I’m an slo very thankful for seeing dr Shenker I whole heartily recommend him. Wonderful knowledgeable man.

I waited five years to get to see a Doctor, who could finally correctly diagnose my condition, after listening to progression of symptoms and examining me, with an open mind. He ordered specific tests and it confirmed his correct diagnosis. This is exactly what you want from a Consultant, so I have no hesitation whatsoever, but to recommend him to other new patients.

I travelled 4 hours to see this dr, and its finally nice to have a dr who has heard of and understands my condition. He took the time to listen to me and answer my questions. He wants to make some changes but sadly my own gp disagrees, I read up on dr Shenker and I'm pretty sure he knows what hes doing, will now challenge my own gp as she is after all, just a gp and not a consultant specialist

Saw Dr Shenker in 2014, two years after onset of a sudden limb impairment associated with a >5 week delay in access to diagnostic tests for a symptomatic proximal DVT. Limb functional loss was associated with permanent damage including chasing of the foot and a loss of the reflex in the leg when first tested in the year after the DVT. Mr Shenker failed to carry out any investigations and incorrectly disputed the DVT in a written letter which he subsequently refused to correct. Despite the DVT having been diagnosed by ultrasound and several months anticoagulation. Disappointed that access to a specialist wasn’t available until several years after onset, and that no tests were carried out during the year after onset of the limb impairment, as a former keen half marathon runner having run a 19 mile run a few days before onset. Acute Compartment Syndrome, was not excluded, nor was an MRI carried out to check whether a Hoffman Contracture was present. And Complex Regional Pain Syndrome was not excluded, nor a nerve block provided when sought, despite the speciality of CRPS on Mr Shenker’s resume. Sadly disappointing, and the limb 7 years on remains unresolved, without appropriate diagnostic tests, sadly. An NHS failure in care. And destroyed quality of life. Sadly.
