Mr Polyzois was very understanding when I arrived at his surgery in absolute agony. He scheduled me for surgery as soon as he could and I was truly thankful to now be pain free and have full use of my shoulder again.

A most considerate and helpful clinician in taking me gently through all the steps towards deciding on the right treatment. Operated on for a complete left reverse shoulder replacement. After several months physio all my previous pain has gone and have got nearly all movement back. At 87 years old couldn't ask for more and ever grateful for his help.

I found Mr Polyzois both very knowledgeable and showed a good deal of empathy toward me for my injury. He listened to everything I had to say, addressed my concerns and together we agreed on the necessary actions required to get me back to full health. Would not hesitate to return to Mr Polyzois in the future should the need arise.

I had the misfortune of falling off my bicycle and ended with my shoulder and face on the hard pavement, so fast that I can't even remember the fall itself. I was referred to Mr Polyzois by one of the other consultants on the NHS as the break of the humerus bone was very complicated. I can truly say that he was wonderfully professional, a really kind, warm human being and superb at his job. We discussed options and he recommended surgery which I had the following week. I am a musician and it was scary to think how things could turn out. He did a splendid job and even the scar is so tidy and understated! The outcome of the surgery was very good. After doing lots of physiotherapy and being closely monitored by this remarkable surgeon, I am now nearly completely where I was before the accident movement wise, and completely pain free. Many thanks to Mr Polyzois and his great team - I will be forever grateful that I landed in your hands during such a difficult and vulnerable time.

Excellent advice from Mr Polyzois following referral to him for a shoulder problem and he provided excellent treatment to resolve the problem. I shall ask to see him again should I have future problems involving shoulder, elbow, wrist or hand.
