Reviews
Dr Seah was able to diagnose and recommend immediate treatment process. He understood that "Good enough" wasn't an option for me and I needed and wanted a full recovery and return of full mobility for my sports.
He was very understanding, professional and took time to explain procedures, treatments and timespan to full recovery.
Excellent service.
Dr Seah is an excellent doctor - he spent a fair amount of time trying to understand my issues and had good diagnostic methods. He recommended a great physiotherapist who has helped me deal with pain.
I was suffering with low grade hip pain for over a year, the pain disturbed my sleep. I had a course of six ESWT in combination with dry needle treatment . I had seen various other health professionals to get a diagnosis and treatment with no significant improvement . I am now pain free. Fantastic to meet a consultant who fully understands sports related injury and does not tell you to stop playing the sports you love!
Rick is one of my most trusted Sports Medicine colleagues. I work closely with Rick and have no hesitation in referring patients into his care. I know that they will be looked after very well, and will also receive the best care.
We have collaborated together looking after many challenging cases over the years and I have no hesitation in recommending Rick's sports medicine services across London and in Elstree.
Professional, courteous and effective care given by Dr Seah. I was seen at short notice and treatment given for a very painful shoulder.
