This is the second occasion i have been treated by Mr Talawadekar and on both occasions i have had first class service and been completely cured. I highly recommend him and his team where i was treated at the Spire Hospital.

Let's start by saying at the age of 55 i have never been in hospital before or broken any bones until a few years ago. So my fears and anxiety levels about having an operation after breaking my collarbone were through the roof. Absolutely no need to have worried, from the very first appointment with Mr T until the time i was discharged I was put at ease, felt listened to and knew i was in the best possible hands. Mr T has put me back together, with the best bedside manner and neatest scar ever. I am no longer terrified of operations or hospitals thanks to this man, keep doing what you're doing Mr T, you're the best!!
