Dr chauhan performed carpol tunnel surgery on both my hands and it has given me my life back. From what I thought was a nothing injury, caused me so many issues for a very long time, to after surgery I feel I've got my life back. Dr Chauhan and ever member of his team are brilliant and couldn't do enough for me to insure my recover. Highly recommend

Mr Chauhan is extremely professional: he takes time to listen and time to explain. A first rate professional experience. I have been completely satisfied with Mr Chauhan and all the support staff. He cares about his patients Mr Chauhan and his entire staff are beyond amazing. When you have an appointment, they will spend the whole scheduled period with you if need be; I know when I see Mr Chauhan he’s already reviewed the reasons for my coming in and my file. I never feel rushed, and he always asks if I have any other questions.

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
