From the first consultation I had total confidence in Mr Karuppaiah. A very informative manner and helpful fitting in with my odd work schedules.
Everything went just as planned with the operation on my hand and I’m fit to return to work.
Very happy with how things went.

I have had two hand operations by Mr Karthk Karuppaiah which have been totally successful. His professional skills are tremendous.
He explained the operations to me in depth and I felt I was in safe hands.
There are no suggestions I need to make to improve the care that I received. Mr Karuppaiah was an exceptional professional surgeon.

Mr Karuppaiah is very kind and considerate in his approach to skeletal problems. He has been my doctor for the past couple of years and the carpal tunnel he did was excellent. I have a little osteo-arthritis in my thumb but all-in-all I had a great result.
