Mr Daoud Makki

Written by a private patient at London Bridge Hospital

First and most importantly he successfully operated on my Dupuytren’s contracture so that I have 100% restoration. In addition he kept me fully informed throughout, gave great care and was extremely pleasant and approachable. I cannot think of any area for improvement.

I experienced growing pain and reduction in movement to my right shoulder (I later learned this to be a 'Frozen' shoulder) in Feb / Mar-23, to the point where, when it 'caught' during throwing / chopping wood type activities the pain, at its worse, made me drop to a knee, loose my breath and the odd tear would well up. Pain that causes you to see a "white flash" in front of your eyes. It was really bad and meant I became less and less able to sleep properly / run to any sort of form... I attended 6 sessions of physio which initially helped to reduce the number of 'catching' episodes but the deterioration of the shoulder continued to get worse over a period of around 5 months. After roughly 8 months since the initial discomfort of putting on a shirt to not being able to lift my right hand out the water when paddling out on a surfboard and punctuated with incredible pain episodes I got a referral to Mr Makki in or around Sep. Mr Makki listened to my experiences and was very professional and clear in describing what he thought was going on and proposed a number of different approaches which we discussed and quickly decided upon the most appropriate course of action given my circumstances. Within a month of that appointment we had; completed a scan of the shoulder, confirmed the prognosis and undertaken the initial remedial activity. I am happy to say within only a couple of days and while performing the follow up exercises enthusiastically my shoulder regained c.90% of the movement and the pain evaporated. The handling of my case by Mr Makki and all of the staff from start all the way to completion was immaculate, efficient, friendly and effective. I highly recommend him, his team and the supporting staff at the Spire Harpenden Hospital and thank all of them for their help in getting this sorted quickly and brilliantly.

Dr. Makki is humane, considerate, realistic and forthcoming. He successfully allayed my concerns and extinguished my skepticism towards treatment in our very first meeting. He was attentive to my preferences and offered multiple routes towards resolution, taking the time to explain (Even draw out) suggested intervention, and then took me through post-intervention expected & realistic outcomes, therapies and long-term care. His team tried to swiftly arrange treatment based on my request, and the procedure went very much per his stated plan. My recovery and post-operative visits have been informative & rewarding, further building confidence in Dr. Makki's initial prognosis and course of treatment. I am unequivocal in my support for Dr. Makki's practice and know that I could not have happened upon a better practitioner for my treatment. All the best to you Dr. Makki!
