Hi. I had a motorbike accident and shattered my collar bone, I went to the hospital where I was told that they didn’t know if they could fix it as It was too badly broken, I wanted a second opinion so I went to see Mr Polyzois and he operated a week later. I am now 12 week later and I am very happy with the excellent care and treatment I received and I would strongly recommend him. I also new under his care for another procedure.

After 6 dislocations I was sent for shoulder stabilization surgery. Dr. Polyzois is the best surgeon I know. Surgery went really well. After surgery I got few appointments with him to see how am I doing and if everything going well with my shoulder. If I need to go again he will be my first choice. I highly recommend him. Eva M.

After several physiotherapy sessions, I had an initial consultation with Mr Polyzois who immediately recommended an MRI scan and diagnosed the issues with my shoulder. Treatment was delayed due to the suspected issues with injections during the pandemic. The injections and following physiotherapy gave some relief, but Mr Polyzois recommended an operation to resolve the issue. Three months on, I am delighted with the result. I have full movement and am pain free at last. At all stages of my treatment, Mr Polyzois explained options and ensured my questions were fully answered. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Polyzois; he is professional, calm and approachable.

Dr Polyzois was v professional and knowledgeable. He offered me PRP injections (after a v prompt MRI) of which I needed 6 (in total for both elbows) and then eventually a tennis elbow operation on one of them. His approach was caring and flexible with well spaced visits throughout, adapting his advice and approach where needed according to my pain. I had the option of various locations too and times to fit in with my life when seeing him. The operation went v well too with lots of follow up care as required. He was realistic in managing my expectations too. I would highly recommend this doctor .
