I cannot Mr Geoghegan highly enough. Right from my first consultation he identified the problem and was very clear in explaining the situation and the options available to me. He also understood that I had an active lifestyle helped me continue with this despite needing surgery.
I was very impressed with the surgery - again very clear communication as soon as I was admitted into hospital, during the pre-op and all through the procedure itself. I also got a clear idea of what would be possible activity wise in the weeks following the surgery too.
After recently having my 6 week follow up post-surgery I'm very impressed with how much movement I have in my shoulder and I'm confident that I will be able to do so much more than I could before surgery.

Mr Geoghegan is an absolute star. Ernest, keen and knowledgeable, he was able to diagnose me quickly, provide reassurance and begin treatment after the scan results, very quickly.
Trust is vital in this environment and I felt that Mr Geoghegan had my care at heart as well as the expertise to deal with the shoulder issue I have.
I'm pleased to say I'm responding well and I feel so thankful.
I'm not sure what could be done to improve, maybe some diagrams to take away or linked to the detailed letters that were sent may help those that like to see things pictorally?

Effective investigation; recommended MRI scan allowed true nature and extent of shoulder injury to be assessed in contrast to miss-interpretation by others who relied on an ultra sound scan.
Surgery (Infinity-Lock) to rotator cuff injury is effective; range of movement excellent and good level of strength achieved which continues to improve gradually as expected.

Well, I’ve had an excellent experience with mr John geoghegan and his team. This person has brought me a great deal of happiness back in my life. I’m a builder who sustained an injury at work and thought my career was over. From start to rehabilitation I was looked after by extreme care / consideration and professionalism. The consultation was swift and surgery was smooth and recovery was gradual which was expected. He highlighted the pros and cons of the surgery at first which answered any doubts that were arising.
People around me are amazed with my quick full recovery which I can only praise Mr geoghegan for his specialty in this field. If in doubt any person thinking of undergoing pre-op, I would be more than happy to assure you are in good hands.

Went to see Mr Geoghegan as I had an issue with my shoulder, first class service could not be happy with the way things have gone. Saw Mr Geoghegan today 3 months after surgery and he was very happy with me and said I was at least 3 months ahead of my healing process so I was signed off today. Huge thank you to all the staff members who dealt with me before and during and after my operation thank you
