I have had both my right and left hands treated for Carpal Tunnel surgery with Dr Chauhan. He first suggested we try steroid injections as the less invasive option and whilst these worked for a while, symptoms returned and he was happy to put me forward for the release surgery. His communication throughout was excellent, he listened to any concerns and I felt reassured throughout all of my procedures. My symptoms in both hands have now resolved and I am grateful to Dr Chauhan for his time and expertise. I would not hesitate to recommend him.

I recently had hip replacement surgery by Mr Chauhan and was extremely happy with the whole procedure from initial consultation to follow up. Mr Chauhan explained everything very clearly and took the time to listen to and answer any questions I had. My procedure took place on NHS at the London Independent Hospital and all the staff there were very pleasant and took very good care of me.

I met with Mr Chauchan initially middle of last year when he recommended an injection for carpal tunnel in my left hand as this is my dominant hand and this would recover quicker than having surgery. I had the injection but unfortunately it did not work and at my follow up appointment when I explained the same symptoms had returned, he immediately recommended surgery and that I would not have to go to end of the list again. If fact I was given a date 8 weeks later. The surgery was excellent, I have fully recovered and Mr Chauchan was professional, thorough, efficient throughout. He made feel at ease I was treated at BMI but through NHS. Thank you Laura Sears

Mr Chauhan is a very good consultant who is straight talking and tells you how it is. He gives excellent after care advice on how to get back to good health, and advises many things to help your recovery. I have had the pleasure of meeting him twice and find him very polite, professional and helpful. He has twice administered the ostenil plus injection to my left knee and he is very understanding of a patient who is nervous of needles. I can highly recommend Mr Chauhan.
